It's not dieing because the game is differen't, boxing has differen't rules to MMA because it's the sport of punching there is still skill involved in just punching, dodging and blocking so boxing is still in a league of it's own in all respect.

I'm fairly new to this whole debate but I'll tell you right now it's the other way around, MMA fans HATE Boxing!

It's simple, mma fans are insecure so they claim their sport is the best and most realistic so they flame boxing thus resulting in a few would be neutral boxing fans getting pissed.

That's my experience with the matter anyway, just scroll down and you will see the types of MMA fans I described. You fuckers are a disgrace to combat sports of all types, boxing,mma,wrestling. losers

I think people shouldn't compare Boxing with MMA. For me they are two different sports and both have their good entertaining things. It would like comparing baseball with football!

@ljsab7 lol stupid.

As a pure sport, I have nothing against MMA. What I hate is the fan culture. All these idiots wearing their Tapout shirts and their superiority complexes even though most of these assholes have never trained a day in their useless fucking lives. Of the people I've met who actually do it and compete in MMA, I've found them to be very respectful and not at all like the fanboys. Ignoring all that, it's a good sport that requires skill and dedication like any other.

Ummm Brock Lesnar wasn't a bum off the street he has an amatuer wrestling background and uses well when fighting.

[KillAWatt1705]

Does it really matter? I mean, I'm a boxing fan, but I still don't mind watching some MMA from time to time. In fact, I appreciate it when there's a MMA match and there's no boxing matches to watch, although I may not understand what's happening, its the next interesting sport available in my book.

As far as whether one or the other is "real fighting" is complete BS. Real fights occur haphazardly, and the conditions each street fight has is ALWAYS different so comparing the two is illogical.
