part-time MM fighter wins....is this another proof that boxing > MMA

[Mr. Fantastic]

Leave to sherdog please. WTF are you doing here. MMA sucks. Its gay. Its sloppy. WWE, and part timers are there biggest stars. Street fighters near 40 are winning, and 50 year old former boxers are knocking out former champs.

Theres to much evidence against, and for you to blame anyone for thinking otherwise makes you look like a nuthugger.

I love both sports. Sorry that you're a fucking ignorant and can't appreciate other combat sports.

Its gay? What about Emile Griffith? Wasn't he a gay boxer??

I've seen boxing fights where they just swing and swing with no technique at all.
Evidence? lol

[Mr. Fantastic]

I'm sorry but being a full time engineer and father of a newborn and still being a top fighter in your sport says something about the sport. Don't compare DLH to that lol DLH doesn't have a 9-5 he is a major player in the company but please believe when DLH was getting ready for a fight he wasn't working 40 hours a week and damn sure didn't have to worry about taking care of his kids.

Doesn't it occur to you that he may be a special fighter? lol

Many as well. It has happened in the history of the sport when there wasn't many belts.

Sports evolved though. Boxing is more of a sport(athletically speaking) than ever before. Back in the early days sure there were ton of bar room brawlers that may of claimed a belt but now a days if we didn't have so many belts I'm not so sure that would be the case. Look at the UFC, it still is in that bar room brawler mode but it is evolving into a legit sport with athletes like GSP and Silva. Eventually MMA will be like boxing where the best athletes are the ones that are the top guys.

I was an mma fan before boxing believe it or not. To see a decent fight you have to buy a ppv. You cant ever watch a big time title fight on regular tv.

It got repetitive to me. It sttarted looking sloppy to me. To many people laying around trying to break guard for 5 minutes straight. To many guys fighting after losing over and over.

Fuck no it isn't!!! Back then those motherfuckers used to fight like every other day/week. Not like today where they get all these months of rest and all.

Bar room brawlers lol. Most of boxing's wars look like that so don't give me that ****.

Even though I don't like MMA, this doesn't really prove anything. If anything this its considered as a good thing, people love to hear these kind of stories all of the time, one of the ordinary unknown guys making a name for themselves.

I still think Boxing beats the **** out of MMA regardless though, but thats just my opinion cause I prefer it... others may feel differently but at the end of the day it doesn't matter because there is plenty of room for both sports to do there own thing.

Sure you were. Sure you were lol.
It may not be your sport but to talk **** about it saying it takes no skill and to talk **** about its fans makes you an idiot.
What about boxing?? Just about every big fight as well isn't on regular TV. Look at all them damn PPVs.
