    Default Re: Is boxing more dangerous than it used to be?

    Boxing seems more dangerous than MMA as there has yet to be a fighter who has died in an MMA match and I can't even begin to count how many fighters have died or have come close to dying in the ring. Maybe the gloves should be stripped down to the MMA style glove



    This way we have no more plaster gate and less deaths.

    And also we would have no need for them 12 round fights.

    The only thing that concerns me is the thumb. Sugar Ray Leonard would never fight later in his career with these things. As he was one of the main reasons boxing gloves thumbs were sewed together. He was no alone and I dont think he was the first to complain about the thumb and the glove issue.
