I saw the stats recently. Cant remember the exact numbers, but there were far more minor injuries in MMA, and far more major injuries in boxing. (I read this around the time of Blackwell head injury and around the time the one guy died in VA I think). And the numbers reflect the differences between the sports. MMA is a quick skirmish, so to speak. Boxing, on the other hand, is enduring sustained punishment for multiple rounds.
I believe smaller gloves would not be good for boxing. Certainly no need for fingerless gloves in boxing
