Please explain the logic in that one Did he put on a new chin for the boxing matchYou ever been hit with someone wearing either kind of gloves I have and let me tell you I will take the Boxing glove all day compared to a lightly padded MMa glove!!!!!Man that was the dumbest post I have read...Stick to Boxing you know nothing about MMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I have. And I know plenty about MMA. And I will tell you that it is about form as well. IN MMA there's more dimentions you can go to so you aren't trained for certain leverages because you need to set up kicks or takedowns. It's vice versa, because an iron chin in boxing can find MMA much more difficult when it comes to taking it on the chin, same can be said an iron chin in MMA can have a glass chin in boxing. In each sport you are conditioned differently when it comes to dealing with it. in MMA you will rarely see a jab, and MMA's don't have the form of a boxer because they are trying to set up different dimentions of things like kicks takedowns or submissions, as a boxer they do not know the boxer's dimentions because they cannot kick or takedown when they box, so a boxer knows the dimentions are the punches, they aren't looking for angles to kick or take down like an MMAer may. So the conditioning is different and it's a completely different world. Many MMA's have said that boxing is the toughest sport for them because you don't get to take people down, there's one way in and one way out so an MMA'er looking for all those dimentions will be caught by simple punches. In the MMA ring a Jitsu artist doesn't have to worry about all those punches coming as the opponent also is cautious about getting his or her arm caught and put in a submission or a hold because of those dimentions. Put that same Jitsu artist in a boxing ring under boxing rules where if somebody throws a punch you need other ways they can't deal with a combination coming at them because the options they are so used to aren't in the rules of boxing.

Yea I sure don't know MMA
