I for one love that this is a competition. Boxing has made a ridiulous schedule of fights and that has to be in large part a piece of this rivalry. Hell, boxing is getting ready to put up some crowds that are awe-inspiring and that plays on pshyche.Comment

I think the reason boxing fans don't like MMA is because when the MMA guys hit the ground there is a point where the action does not continue they just roll around trying to grapple or get into a position for submission. I used to wrestle in High School and believe me that **** is not easy there is a skill in the grappling. I will be honest thou I do not like MMA much. I'd rather watch hand to hand combat then watching legs flying and knocking out the opponent or a quick ass submission. Boxing is an art form that takes a lifetime to master.Comment

Who cares if grappling takes skill, cause in the end, its still painful to watch. Just like the casual fan when watching Mayweather Jr. It takes tons of skills to do what he does, but in the end people find it hard to watch. Its funny to me how on these UFC shows, the crowd cheers when the fighters stand up after grappling. That says a lot.I think the reason boxing fans don't like MMA is because when the MMA guys hit the ground there is a point where the action does not continue they just roll around trying to grapple or get into a position for submission.
