It makes Gatti vs Ward look tame!

[Nameless]

I like both MMA and boxing. That was definitely a very good scrap, people that were present to the fight had a great night. That doesn't make Gatti-Ward any less thrilling though,2 different kind of excitements for 2 very different sports.
That said, MMA is more difficult than boxing, even Freddie Roach said so in an interview he gave last year or so (I remember to have seen it and what he said but not exactly when it was). Reason? There is just so much more to know in MMA to perform well than in boxing. Does it make boxing any less interesting? Hell no, it's not because something is more complicated that it is automatically much better.

I agree. MMA is more difficult but I like boxing better. I watch them both but the build up to boxing matches and my general like for boxing makes me look more forward to a top level boxing match as opposed to a top level MMA match.
