MMA fighter admits that boxing is harder than MMA

I'm with you on that one, I don't believe he could last in a Boxing Fight!!

Lesnar would pass out from just three rounds of sparring in a boxing ring.There's no doubt that's he athletic,but his cardio is suspect as he was huffing and puffing his way through a fight with a middle aged man just two rounds into their bout.

This statement is so ****ing ****** your teeth turns green.

MMA only goes to 3 Rounds or 5....in mma most fights finish in the 1st round...where as boxing it is an art, skill and the sweet science making it alot more better then MMA..there was a time when boxing fights were 15 Rounds or in the days of jack johnson or jack dempsey 20 Rounds

No,it's not! Lesnar looked like he was about to collapse against Couture.He was leaning all over him and breathing quite heavily actually.

A man who learned his tricks of the trade from a university wrestling program noted for their hellish cardio was huffing and puff after eight minutes of work?

Yeah he was and saying that he was always nakered in WWE and that is just play-fighting!!

I can't remember where and when I read it but there was an interview with Brock Lesnar saying he wanted to go into Boxing but he choose MMA because his trainer was more relaxed with him!

And stated that he would've liked to come into Boxing but was put off with how much training he had to do for it!!

I can't link it because it was sometime when he just started MMA!! If I do find it I will post it here!

Look at Lesnar, he would've had to restructure his entire body and learn boxing almost from scratch.

Lesnar already had a background in grappling and had the body type to be successful in MMA in boxing he would've run out of gas standing up against a world class fighter or even a contender very quickly. His strength and different type of condition is totally different in both sports.

I'd say boxing is a harder sport due to the depth and how long it been around but they are still very different.

Georges St-Pierre is also a wrestler with a glass jaw.

Because he was knocked out once with 4 oz. gloves he has a glass jaw?

A few names you from an entire sport(as they call it) doesn't support your argument.

It actually does, saying it doesn't support my argument is...just saying it doesn't support my argument, whether it does or doesn't.

It certainly hasn't evolved over the last five,six years.

Boxing hasn't evolved any faster in the last 5 or 6 years, and notice how every name I mentioned wasn't even a contender 5 or 6 years ago. Which, yet again, "supports my argument." Ha.

Try getting hit half as hard with bare hands on your chin and you'll find out quicker that all of humanity has a glass jaw.

MMA = 15 to 25 minutes of boxing, kickboxing, wrestling (ever wrestled?), jiu jitsu

Boxing = 36 minutes of strictly boxing only

There's a reason MMA doesn't go on as long. It involves brute strength in your quads, biceps, triceps (grappling) as well as the boxing/kickboxing element to it.

there was a time when boxing fights were 15 Rounds or in the days of jack johnson or jack dempsey 20 Rounds

There was a day when MMA had NO time limits.
