I love and appreciate both for different things.

MMA is inferior garbage for rednecks.

MMA fighters are absolutely useless, when we compare them to boxing fighters. This gap exist, because of the money. Simples!

i love both, but right now, i'm watchin more mma.

for me the main reason is better match ups. theres no ducking in the ufc, the fight you wanna see usually gets made. gsp, penn, silva have been cleaning out their divisions. lesnar takin on #1 ranked carwin. machida/rua having an immediate rematch. evans/rampage. the only exception you could argue is fedor cuz hes not in the ufc. but if he were you can bet he would be fighting lesnar ASAP.

in boxing big fights sometimes dont get made cuz of BS. pac/pbf, nard/rj II(shoulda happen sooner), klit/haye(haye pulls out twice), pwill/pavlik(i think it would have been fight of the year). the BS politcis in boxing and the way fighters can duck each other kills the sport. even shane/pbf shoulda happened sooner.

i love both, but mma is delivering the fights fans wanna see consistently, while boixng is doin it in spurts.

I enjoy watching both. I don't really see why there's an argument as to which sport is better except for promoters who want to sell more tickets. Both sports can co-exist IMO.
