Sometimes it doesn't matter what is actually better, it matters what is more popular. Something can be as technically great as you want it, but if nobody is watching then there is nobody to witness its greatness. Boxing is a sport that isn't growing, but mma is. I think MMA fighters should accept boxing just like boxing people should accept MMA and K-1. I am a kickboxer, but boxing is my favorite sport. I've done my fair share of it, but I do kick boxing first and foremost.
