Who wins? Lets say in an alley, on a sidewalk, in a bar and maybe a store.

Those are the places you were told you may have been conceived, right?

Threads like this have been done 1 million times, it comes down to who the fighters are and the environment. The only fights that have acctually gone down to my knowledge in the streets were James Toney knocking out Oleg Taktarov in a Boxing gym after Toney was badmouthing eastern Europeans, Oleg rushed lights out and Toney knocked him out.

The other fight was Don Fry getting knocked out by a 50 year old ex-boxer/boxing coach.

Apparently Frye was drunk and got his revenge later. I'm not completely sure, though.

Well most street fights occur when alcohol is involved, Frye got no revenge though. There was a huge thread at mma.tv where plenty of eye witnesses confirmed Frye started another fight in the parking lot and got knocked out cold. There was an article that said Frye did better in the second fight but it was just a MMA writer trying to save face.

A high level MMA Fighter beats a high level boxer in a street fight. Boxers aren't trained to sprawl their opponents. Its more than just throwing hands with a MMA fighter.

boxer....

mma fighters are overrated, believe me, i train with them.

it's subjective but let's say like a mike tyson or david tua fights an mma fighter in a street fight, let's say a rampage jackson or brock lesnar, all big men, all of these fighters in their prime, i'd favor tyson and tua, because of their speed and animalistic fighting. it's hard to say though. lesnar and rampage are strong as ****.

smaller fighters like say a mayweather jr, judah, srl, hatton, pacman, whoever, a roy jones, i would favor them in a street fight over an mma fighter everytime, because of their speed and ability to land punches even in a street fight where it's brawling and fast paced and many times people black out so it's good they have skills, but there's really no finesse in street fighting, and who knows how they would respond once they're grabbed. but usually a punch is thrown and mayweather and roy jones have really quick reflexes against guys who know how to punch hard and fast, so i'd favor them to avoid a punch by an mma fighter who to be fair can punch, but they do so much more than boxers do as far as grappling and submission type fighting, boxers specialize in punching and movement and dodging punches and blocking punches. it would be up on the table, but i'd go with a boxer in a street fight.
