This is sad why does this happen in boxing more often that all the other combat sports?

[Eff Pandas]

Love & positive vibes for him & his loved ones.

This guy always had a good chin and that wasn't to his benefit last night. Also weird how Boxrec didn't even have this fight scheduled despite Orucuta being ranked fairly high, his challenger not having a bad record and the fight being on TV...

Boxing is more dangerous imo, probably the most dangerous combat sport there is. You got fighters even going 12 rounds, sometimes taking hundreds of punches to the head. In MMA, if you get dropped, there is a higher chance to get finished right there and then with few extra punches or maybe a submission. In boxing, you got time to recover, to get up and go on again, taking more punches. If you have iron chin, it can be a real bad thing not to get knocked out, as you will take horrific amount of damage at the times in the fights

Kickboxing and Muay Thai both have usually only around 3-5 3-minute rounds. MMA usually 3 x 5 minute rounds and championship bouts and sometimes main events 5 x 5 minutes which comes bit closer for the 36 minute of full boxing, but still not quite there yet and still taking lot less punches / strikes to the head as there are other aspects as well

Also, in boxing, you only punch and these fighters are experts on it, some hitting so hard that it should be illegal to possess that kind of holy power

Combat sports are rough. But boxing especially
