dont really care about frank shamrock or his opinions but his insight on boxing and mma was really interesting. and i thought it was refreshing to hear an opinion on mma that wasnt the canned line of how much its progressed and for him stating the truth of how poor the boxing skills of most mma fighters really is .... most mma fights i've seen in the last little while have been mainly wrestling, not even jujitsu and have been pretty boring. while i enjoy mma i really have no clue why its so popular ... i think its mainly perfect marketing

nobody disputes that striking in MMA is not at the level of Boxing yet.

i really love to hear this coming from an mma fighter. boxing is much more classy than mma. also, mma is donminated by grapplers. when you walk into a basic mma, the boxing USUALLY isnt taught very well at all.
