**** YOU! heard you dress up like an old lady and go and pick up homeless guys

Take your ****ty threads to some UFC board little boy, this is boxing board, I'm getting sick of seeing UFC or MMA threads on this board.

BTW boxing fans don't spam UFC or MMA boards like the way the UFC and MMA kids do.

aww, the angry little troll who kept giving me bad K cuz he was unhappy with the one star rating that he deserved.

piss off, stalker. ur now on my ignore list, thank god.

You hit me with the red first, so I returned the favor with 3.

By the way you deserve red for another UFC thread.

I think the comparison- and battle between the two sports- is envitable. Boxing is the old kid on the block. It has the history, the past - and feels as if it is the lasting sport. UFC is a new kid that has come into town with more brutality and is, by the nature of the sport, grabbing more casual fans. Most of those that I know that watch UFC don't know **** about the different weight classes, etc. they just know who the current champions are and know they like how bloody it can be.

Who made the first aggresive move and started the war? Who can say. It's not just boxing fans that attack UFC- it goes both ways. I have heard so many times that boxers are one dimensonal because they only use 'striking' while UFC fighters strike, grapple, etc. Boxing fans are a passionate, die-hard lot that will not take disrespect lightly. If you spit on our sport we want blood.

Why can't we get along? Because a battle has been set in motion and neither side will ever just drop it - so we rage on. I'm not going to let some punk kid who backs a relativley new sport like UFC disrespect the historic, tradtional sport of boxing which I love- and some do. I'm fine staying on my side of the fence if they stay on theirs...but that isn't going to happen for quite awhile.

boxing and boxers are always talking about the UFC. they started the beef.

The version of this debate that currently surrounds the issue of Boxing vs. MMA originated directly from the UFC organization and it's people.

Anything else is pure fiction.

In MMA there's more ****ing involved than striking during a fight.

Boxing there isn't any ****ing during a fight. Sorry, MMA is too boring to watch for me.

floyd doesnt do that **** out of frustration! whered you come up with that? you think he got in oscars face and talked trash to everyone cuz he was miffed that the media was following him around? floyds a spoiled brat who has to attack anyone who questions him. but he doesnt verbally abuse everyone he talks to simply because hes frustrated with the attention hes getting. if anything, he probly thinks hes not getting enough attention.

thats not what im saying...

if the camera is always around you its gonna catch all sides....the good, the bad, the ugly....i dont see anything wrong with trash talking in sports....Michael Jordan did it discreetly...Ray Lewis...Warren Sapp...and all these guys can back it up....

what makes him spoiled? he earned those millions...his dad didn't give it to him

you're right he might want more attention and acts a fool when he gets it...soo maybe it's a phase...he wasn't doing it as an amature or early as a pro...people go through immature ****...some in the public's eye

im not wasting another brain cell on this subject
