Headbutting and grabbing = boxing or MMA?

[Rosseboi]

Who here thinks boxing would be better if these things were outlawed? Those traits belong more to MMA imo.

Thoughts?

while you're at it you should add slapping to the list too that way Joe Blow could be a UFC star

They are outlawed.. But I see what you're doing.

Get over it. Your guys lost.

1st thought would be it would be almost impossible. While a select few fighters headbutt or grab intentionally in given situations....for everyone else...it will always occur naturally on accident because of southpaw stance or just getting tangled up because of wanting to fight on the inside.

but on 2nd thought....if boxing were to outlaw both completely it would change the dynamic of boxing as we know it. Many of the sport's top fighters would be washed away in favor of nonstop action fighters.

Andre Ward isn't in the MMA so I don't know...

They are all part of boxing and if you can handle the heat then unto MMA.
