Well boxing is a sport that I have trained in for over 10 years, I'm proud of it, it has a rich history, and it IS effective on the street. I'm sick of MMA guys putting it down! If you can't post something constructive, just don't post anything!

For real tho....boxing and MMA are two different sports. Comparing them is like comparing NASCAR and NHRA, both have to do with fast cars, but in completly different ways.
Personally, I favor MMA because it's the whole enchilada, but I'll enjoy a good boxing match....and a good HS wrestling meet too.![Wink](images/smilies/wink.gif)
