Why dont MMA fighter`s turn to boxing?

Leighton - as the main defender of mma on this thread, I wonder if you can help me understand something. How is ground game entertaining?

Clearly, I'm a boxing fan yet I'll completely admit there have been times where I have watched entertaining mma fights, but what keeps from enjoying most mma fights is that I'm not entertained by wrestling or ground game. That's not to say I don't appreciate that a lot of skill goes into ground game because I do. It's just whenever mma combatants start wrestling/ground game, I lose interest. The ground game isn't just on the ground either because it appears frequently one guy wants to take the other guy down (pause) and the whole fight is about one guy foiling the other guy's take down, which also in my opinion makes for a boring fight. So, for me, the most entertaining mma fights I've watched by far consist mostly of striking and kickboxing.

As to kickboxing, you mentioned K1 and I've watched some K1 and I can 100% see the entertainment value (Badr Hari is a bad, bad man). However, there isn't any wrestling in K1 so it makes sense why it would be entertaining to me.
