You do know that Cro-Cop and Sapp fought in K-1 too right? K-1 is pretty much MMA except without the ground game, and while I do like submissions, stalling on the ground like a lot of the wrestlers in MMA do is pretty boring, so taking that element out but leaving in the stand up action is pretty entertaining.

Watch Leonard Garcia vs Chan Sung Jung, and tell me that's boring.

K-1 could be up there if it was a better funded thing. Alot of kickboxing only guys like Andy Hug would have killed anyone stand up in the UFC back then. K-1 just doesen't have that hype and anticipation for me to put it above boxing, but if it suddenly got it, I would consider putting it up there.

lol @ evry1 agrueing opinions.. u kno this is like a cirlce right? no matter how much u argue ur own opinion u'll nevr change sum1's mind.. Eth u do this ALOT. smh

i respect each sport, boxing has ALOT of technical shit.. all their fighters are polished basically once they come out of amatuer fighting their almost world class. it takes alot of work for them to get to the skill level they are at.
..MMA, also the same thing.. altho i think it takes more work for a MMA fighter to become world class then it does a boxer.. becuz if you actually wanab successful you needa be more then well-rounded.. thats a fact, u needa have ground n stand up abilities.

for my entertainment, i prefer MMA..i dnt watch fights to see knock-outs, unless the guys fighting are both guys who like to stand up n bang.. i watch fights to see a good fight.. granted, there are alot of stale mates, guys laying on their opponent (like Brock's 1st few fights)... but theres also alot of ground transition, ect.. ive never trained ground, i trained straight stand-up.. trust me, i love stand up.. just for me, boxing just misses sumthing so it loses my interestest, especially when u have a guys tieing up and dancing around so much.. just for me i like watching a good back n forth, which u see in boxing.. but boxing just doesnt entertain me enough.

theres no clear winner of this arguement of which is better.. if MMA goes to Boxing, the boxer will win, if boxing goes to mma, the mma fighter wins.. just how it is. its like putting a street fighting in the ring with a boxer or in the octagon with a ufc fighter.. theres no chance.

A boxer got defeated in every aspect he never trained, it was a major shocker alright.

James Toney would KO Couture in like 3 punches, as far as I'm conserned, that makes him the better fighter, not the fact that he has little girls legs.
