The differential in handskills are night and day in Boxing. That's why I could never really get into UFC/MMA, ETC....
For those that still prefer boxing over UFC, why?

I appreciate that they pit up the best against the best, but MMA fighters are highly unactive normally having less 20 fights before retiring on average.
Plus most of these MMA fighters mostly seem sloppy at the area they are supposed to be specialized at, supposedly they are well rounded but they seem way less skilled at stand-up fighting than boxers which have less tools to work with but way more polished skills.
I enjoy it once and then if they are mostly strikers since they have more methods to fight by hand-to-hand combat within 5-minute rounds, but 80% of the time I likely tune in to a boxing match.Last edited by Malvado; 09-04-2022, 09:37 PM.Comment

Loads of reasons
1. There are only and handful of guys that fight each other a bunch of times. Usman vs Covington, Usman vs Masvidal, Usman vs Edwards, Usman vs Masvidal, Usman vs Covington, Usman vs Edwards
Israel vs Vettori, Vettori vs Whittaker, Israel vs Vettori, Israel vs Whittaker, Israel vs Romero, Israel vs Whittaker. I
He’s going to be fighting Whittaker for the third time now even though they first 2 were conclusive
There just isn’t that much talent
2. Nate Diaz ? vs Khamzat??
3. Good grappling cancels each other out and you often get a sloppy Muay Thai fightComment
