ok maybe it wont become an olympic sport.

boxers will come a lot closer simply because they are focused on one thing... where as MMA fighters are generally average at a lot of things with one of two aspects they excell at.
in mma you could a fighter who is feared for their striking and has crap ground game, he will e taken tdown and submitted. then you get grapplers who are crap strikers, the striker will kepp the fight standing and knock the grappler out.

You often get great fighters like WANDERLEI SILVA and Fedor and nog, who are good at everything, striking and grappling, these guys are almost impossible to beat.

thats why there are exciting match-ups. when you get two fighter who are all rounders but their core is stand-up,... YOU ARE GUARANTEED A STAND UP WAR!!!

^^^^its alot more interesting thn boxing at times...^^^^

after saying this it may seem that i dont like boxing but infact i am a solid boxing fan, i can never miss a fight.

i wont mind seeing a good boxer go up against a good mma fighter...it'll be interesting!
