MMA looks so sloppy compared to Boxing

[boogbx]

Yesterday’s card was actually kinda weak with the exception of Yan, Jesus Christ he’s a beast.

But I’m appreciating MMA more since I’ve gotten into Muay Thai and kickboxing for training. No other sports Other than soccer so I’m watching any and all combat sports I can find.

Plus training in the arts helps you appreciate the sport more. Times have changed, in a street fight you are more likely to fight guys that train in various arts than a strait knuckle up.

Some Muay Thai fights on FS have been really entertaining. I also recommend Nate Diaz, that guy is a monster and outlasts guys with insane conditioning.

I honestly don’t see how anybody who has boxed not appreciating the art.

Boxing is the greatest sport on earth, don’t mean I can’t enjoy a good MMA fight.

That said you can miss me with the nuts in your face jiu jitsu. Not a fan.

Nick I mean my bad.

If you don’t appreciate that fight I don’t know what to tell you.

Log off and never come back again.

You don't know anything about fighting whatsoever

Sherdog is where you want to be though you probably already are there

So sad seeing irrational defensive insecure boxing fans unable to grasp that you can like both sports and acknowledge the positives and negatives of both. Boxing is a great sport with many merits, but its fighters being able to consistently beat MMA guys in any rules other than pure boxing sure isnt one of them.

Those guys I named and many other MMA fighters (and kickboxers and Thai boxers) would obliterate the lead leg of most boxers with low kicks and likely stop them in the first round. It might hurt your feelings but its the truth. Ironic telling people they dont know about "fighting" (which describes MMA more than boxing anyway) when you dont know how kicks and clinch work can effectively nullify pure boxing. Are you one of those dudes that thinks boxers can avoid takedowns with footwork and well timed uppercuts too?

Sloppy or not guys like Aldo and Volkanowski who were on that card could beat most elite boxers of comparable size in a pure stand up fight. Also kickboxing itself is sloppy as **** (all striking arts get sloppy once you add in a bunch of new elements other than punching) and MMA is littered with ex-high end kickboxers getting KTFO. MMA striking to boxing is just apples to oranges, I dont find a good MMA striking war "unwatchable" at all.

just no, they both suck. any pro boxer who can measure distance with his feet and a good jab beat this two rather easily

i love how this MMA/UFC fans think that a boxer would just stand still while being kicked

in boxing u dont have to worry about your opponent shooting and taking u down, kicking u in the leg body head, different sports so u cant comparing just punches thrown landed

Like I said you don't know shyt about fighting

Barely anybody uses kicks In a street fight and even less people than that clinch. 90% of street fights starts and ends with punches.and there's a good reason for that. They are the most effective and the quickest way to hurt your opponent


Most street fights lasts 30 Seconds max. That's not enough time to wear a guy down with fcking leg kicks or takedowns. A guy like Lomachenko would've enough time to knock out cold a guy like aldo 3 times before aldos leg kicks would have any effect on him. Now if you're a guy like a crocop who knocks dudes out with a single kick to the head you would have a point. But most mma fighters aren't like him.

Boxers have the superior timing, distance control, technique, power and defence.

Most mma fans i talked to never been in a fight themselves.

"just like..step back from the takedown and throw an uppercut bro"

"just move away from the kicks" (even though actual kickboxing/muay thai/mma fighters dont defend kicks that way because it doesnt work)

**** people that only understand boxing say. Lol.

He said aldo would best most boxers in a stand up fight

A guy who got knocked out with a single punch by McGregor who's punching power retired floyd mayweather openly laughed at

for some reason mcgregor punches vs floyd looked very weird, MMA dudes can't crack for shit without those tiny ass gloves
