Aside from traditional boxing of these two which do you prefer more?

MMA is much better. It’s also a legitimate sport with some seriously bad ass fighters no matter what anyone says or thinks. It’s a very fun and highly competitive sport and has produced some of worlds best athletes in recent times. Bare knuckle boxing is a circus act.

Both are barbaric savagery fit for the uncivilized.

Boxing is the true gentlemens sport.

Gentlemen's Sport?

You might be being sarcastic but the irony of traditional boxing and its glove use is that it is actually worse long term for the health of the fighters.

Like the NFL and its helmet use vs Rugby without it.

Bareknuckle is a cooler concept but it's still in its infancy and the caliber of athlete is not close to what you have in high level boxing, MMA, or even kickboxing.

But I'll watch pretty much any combat sport. Boxing, MMA, bareknuckle, kickboxing, even fake ones like pro wrestling.

BKB is basically barbaric human cawk fighting. Not one technique would be seen during the fight. Only the lowest form of subhuman species would enjoy something like that. Not even our predecessors, Neanderthals would have stooped that low.

Bare Knuckle Boxing.

I was still kind of amazed by Artem Lobov's damage post fight 'But that was to be expected when fighting bare knuckle i.e More surface damage, but less trauma in comparison to boxing'

Makes you wonder how devastating certain boxers are? Mike Tyson busted up Razor Ruddock real bad in their second fight 'While wearing gloves'
