Like Larry Merchant said you can't take a sport seriously in which you can be a world champion with a record of 6-2 or something like that.

The art of punching slick targets and learning how to slip punches exclusively requires far greater reflexes and speed than kicking and a lot higher skills than rolling around on the fucking floor.

I find MMA really boring, I've never seen a MMA fight which I can describe as a really terrific event like so many great boxing matches are.

Besides, MMA is really a local American contest with marginal worldwide involvement at this stage where as boxing has become a global sport.
LMAO, your ignorance towards MMA is unreal ! Anderson Silva is the 2nd most popular athlete/sportsman in Brazil which has a huge MMA following.
The UK has many MMA (UFC) events each year which sell out within hours of the tickets going on sale. The same can be said for ticket sales in other European countries as well as Australia.

Just because you find it boring does not mean everyone else does. I find you boring, so stick that in ya pipe and smoke it fool !
