Rid**** Bowe: MMA is much harder than boxing....

[- Ram Raid -]

I dont know what these kick box g@y boys are so proud of??? All they do run around kicking boxers in the shins from a distance refusing to engage at all. They did the same thing to Vince Philips when he tried it. Weaksauce

Muay Thai isn't kick-boxing either.

This 'My Sport Is Better Than Your Sport' **** is getting embarrassing.

And....????

[Infamous]

mma is also gayer

There is a lot of good arguments on here, but Imma have to agree with this one...

[TBear]

It is hard for +40 boxers to switch sports.

Is MMA really so desperate for attention they're claiming Muay Thai is MMA too. Man that MMA must be huge in THAILAND.

[croz]

and what is he? 50 years old 300lbs going in for a 150k payday win or lose. Yeah, not so sure this is a great example.

This argument gets so old. People need to understand something....what defines hard? It is all relative. To be an elite boxer you need to have deep technical knowledge about boxing, all aspects. To be an elite mma fighter, you just need to be decent at a bunch of things or just be a good wrestler. In mma you can tackle someone, lay all over them, etc. to either get a break or try to win. You always have gravity there to help you. In boxing you have no way out, no tackling, no smothering, no headlocks, no laying down. You have to stand there and fight it out.

The difference between MMA and boxing is this which puts in in perspective. You had a guy (Lesnar) who never trained in martial arts in his life, never had an MMA fight in his life...and he walked into the UFC and won the heavyweight championship in his 2nd fight. Does anyone, anyone believe that some guy who has never boxed in his life could walk into the ring and win a championship at any level in boxing? It would never ever happen. I make this analogy, an elite mma fighter is like a handyman, he can fix washers, dryers, fridges, dishwashers, disposals, etc...handy at each different one. A boxer is like a cardiac surgeon, or a sculptor, he is probably not good at anything else but he is a master at his art form.

Lesnar was elite at wrestling, for god sake he won the Olympics.

and here i thought it really was mma.. bowe didn't even have to watch for throws and tackles. He just got kicked in the leg like 6 times and died.... this is sad.

Bunch of morons in this thread. The art of fighting comes in many different ways.

Most of you fools, I bet once you get into a fight the first thing you're going to do is try to wrestle them down.
