Both are great, but I personally love MMA, since it used multiple different techniques , it incorporates fighting styles from many different combat sports, and since it’s a relatively young sport, it still have huge growth potential. I could just imagine how insanely skilled mma fighters will be in 20 years, as the sport evolves
I love MMA too tho I prefer boxing
Great video man really good stuff
I love both but boxing will always be number one for me. Original warrior sport and I love the pure science of hit and not getting hit and counter punching
You think boxing is the original? I’m sorry bro your just incorrect (if you mean “the sport of boxing”)
@@Saber23 boxing is a sweet science and we love it you can love the sport of boxing and the sport of MMA
@@DabobbyG937 that’s not even what I’m talking about you idiot
Hitting while not getting hit is a part of kickboxing and Muay Thai and MMA and so is counter punching. All that is also involved in Karate
The whole point of a fight is to hit or beat up the other person while preventing them from doing the same to you. But some people’s strikes are hard to dodge, block or counter so that’s grappling or running away is important
Great video as always lads
Thank you! 🙏
Amazing video dude!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
Always great quality
Thank you!
Still waiting for one of those boxers to step into mma
Samee
kzhead.info/sun/krNwlrxofH9qqKc/bejne.html , they have
Claressa shields did and she won. Also Adesanya was a boxer
@@peripheralhandshaker He was a kickboxer
@@Bunndog He was a boxer before kickboxing mate. And he still uses those skills today. Also Dan Hooket and Holloway are notable boxers in the ufc also.
2:15 damn you did him dirty lol, btw when will "What determines chin durability" video uploaded?
Head movement! Head movement! Head movement!😎
That will be this coming week, stay tuned!
@@MMAAccess cant wait!
I love both I started off with boxing but got introduced to mma by my best mate years ago I prefer mma personally
Both sports are cool and have there benefits traditional boxing doesn’t work in the mma ring well and mma boxing doesn’t work in the boxing ring well simple as that I feel like mma needs better fighters to represent there skills in boxing for example Holloway, poirer and petr Yan but as a fan of combat sports overall both are good
Without JP there would of never been a need to mention athletes. Just saying he’s bilaterally impacting sports
MMA is like having a arsenal of many unexpected ability compared to a boxer who only knows how to adapt to a Basic field has I know I know both fields a highly effective but in a average street rules MMA fighters have to better chance to actually cuses a lot of damage
I still love boxing more
What about kickboxing?
There is no differences. It‘s rhe same style just be well adapt st dealing with other styles and you good. We have seen it thousands of times
boxers love to talk a big game on twitter but none of em will step in the cage
Boxing is just practice for MMA fighters. Those boys don't want this smoke
Facts
then why do MMA fighters look like amateurs when they face boxers, yall just some mama fanboys. A boxer has a better chance of winning an MMA match than an MMA fighter winning a boxing match. One punch can end the fight. If you think a boxer can't handle his own in any fight then you are ignorant
@@bryanm.6313 ever see what happened to james toney when he got in the cage? No surprise the guy who spends his entire life just punching will be better at punching than the guy who also had to learn kicking, kneeing, elbowing, clinching, takedowns, throws, fence wrestling, and submission grappling. Thats like saying why is the figure skater better at skating than the NHL player? Because skating is all they do. Boxers love to talk big on twitter but when it comes to getting in the cage they all go silent. Are you even a fighter if you need pillows on your hands and a million rules to "fight"?
@@abiram96 those “pillow” hands have caused more deaths in boxing and make it more prove for severe head trauma than the small gloves mma fighters use. Why?
@@bryanm.6313 because in boxing since you can only punch to the head or body you get way more head punches per fight than in mma where it can end via leg kick, body shot, submission, or tko. The standing 8 and the 10 count are at fault too. If a guy gets concussed, all he has to do is stand up in 10 seconds so he can go get concussed again? Boxers also go through way more career fights than mma fighters do, average mma fighter will only have maybe 30 fights in a whole pro career, so a lot less head trauma sustained.
Funnu how MMA boxing is considerably more complex than boxing boxing
Silly. learn, read, try thought processes before stating such ignorance.
@@christianBMFbarboza hes right, sure boxing is complex, but you only have to worry about punches, a smaller variety of ranges/footwork/angles, and only a handful of possible strikes. Mma fighters have to account for all the same things boxers do, plus the risk of kicks, knees, elbows, clinches and takedowns when boxing in the cage. Literally 3x the number of things to have to know and learn
@@abiram96 YOU KNOW NOTHING. GO TO SLEEP AND HAVE COMPLEX DREAMS OF LEARNING WHAT THE SCIENCE IS ALL ABOUT. SHAME ON YOU.
@@christianBMFbarboza wow amazing analysis, you should apply to being a boxing commentator, most of them suck anyway so theyll take you 😂 boxing is a dying sport
@@christianBMFbarboza the irony of this comment is golden
A sport that accepts submission as a way of victory shows that it tolerates quitters. A sport where you take constant punches to the head and body and even when you feel like you want to quit because your brains are rattled, but you cant, is a real mans sport. Boxer is and always will be far superior
Well let me ask you would you prefer to get knocked out and you know be okie in 2 mins are so are dislocated shoulder broken arm broken wrist , broken leg , torn ligaments and take 2-months to a year to recover ,
@@Kamkazi-gc5be never happens
@@23lnp ???????????????????????????
@@23lnp please whatch this short: kzhead.infoZMlKxwPX1ec?si=6YER4kuXjm6HS1Yy Do you want this to be your leg? If you dont submit to joint locks, your bones will break! Thats the whole purpose of this submissions im BJJ and MMA 🤦🏻♂️ What youre saying is so dumb. Anybody would 100% prefer to punched KO rather getting your Bones or skull crushed in a joint lock. That's the reason they're submitting. You exposed yourself that you know nothing about ground fighting. A Submission is like a checkmate in chess. At this point you cant defend yourself anymore, and your opponent could break your bones if he wants. He is showing that to you by applying a little bit of the force, and thats already enough to know that you should submit. Otherwise you will have permanent damage for life.
MMA is lame
I wouldn't say lame but I prefer boxing for the artful and technical look of a boxing match. Not a big fan of takedowns honestly, find ko's way cooler. MMA is definitely more practical for real fighting but you don't need to be pro level in anything to properly defend yourself. At the end of the day MMA and boxing are just sports.
Lol
Boxing is all drama MMA has become the new fashion of fighting stick to your own opinion
@@eddietrejos5203mma is trash and will always be 🗑️
Stick to being 1 dimensional
