Start a federation with MMA gloves and have four 5 min rounds.
If I had 100 million laying around I would!

The only thing thats needed is a dominant heavyweight champion. Someone thats exciting to watch. Not like the Klitchkos. America has no interest in them.

Boxing it toooo long. Now when people are used to short mma fights. They want action right away, I think mma gloves and about 4 rounds would to that so they dont kill each other.
With only 4 rounds there would be any time to hug each other and rest every round so the "judge" have to break them up time and time and time again.
Sometimes in a mma match the just keep it standing, and it great to watch only that also :)

Boxing is dying big time.
Also did i hear that someone is promoting a world heavyweight MMA and Boxing match on the same bill. That would bring in millions.

They need to add back the 13th, 14th and 15th rounds back to the championship fights. And don't give me the "injury" bullshit. If these guys didn't want brain damage then they shouldn't have become boxers.
Boxing needs more knockouts and rules against holding. Those two changes and more rounds will change the sport overnight.
-
there was a writeup on the problem with boxing...esp the HW division. the talented guys are focusing on football and basketball. the pool just isnt there.
-
In the old days was heavyweight not 189lbs or something along those lines?
-
The heavyweight division is the worst it's ever been. Hasim Rachman just got another title shot. Holyfeild just got another title shot. James Toney is a heavyweight contender. The most glorified division in boxing is a joke and has been ever since Lennox Lewis retired.
-
Small gloves and No more then 5 rounds is the answer.

Agreed the heavyweights have sucked for years now. I like watchin Pacquiao and Hatton and Mayweather before he retired, but we're missing a great heavyweight division. The Klitchkos are fading fast, but every up and coming big man turns to MMA now. I did like to watch Lennox, but that time is also over with. Need another '80s Tyson type run in the heavies.
-
just because you don't have any niggaz who can beat the klitschkos doesn't mean boxing is dying
-
soon we ll watch inmates kill each others in arenas hoping to obtain freedom.
-
Let boxing die.

Boxing is an art form, MMA is whitetrash. But I still like them both
-
In order for boxing to survive the sport needs to dump the alphabet belts and get the best fighters in the world to actually fight each other; how FM can duck Magarito, Pacquioa and Cotto and proclaim he's the best fighter of all time is beyond ludicrous.
That said I think Boxing needs Floyd because he makes the sport interesting, good to have a villain.

Boxing is blacktrash.

ofcourse it is, thats why a big goon like Brock Lesnar with only 3 professional fights to his credit can become heavyweight champion ::) LOL
A boxer like Roy Jones is 10 times the athlete than someone like a Chuck Liddel; fighters who went to MMA are just normal guys you see in the street who couldnt cut it in boxing.

playing chess is harder

exactly..If they could make it in boxing they would but they can't.look no further than the money.an MMA fighters whole career 30-40 fights he would not make as much money as. a chapion boxer makes in one fight.

The majority of MMA fighters are just average Joes who were probably bulllied as a kid LOL

MMA is a very young sport. And right now it's more popular than boxing. If that continues in a couple of years the money in MMA will be much, much better.
And in a fight, ie not a boxing match, big difference, boxers have the odds stacked heavily against them.

ofc

Boxing is for coloreds, spics and euro-trash....hahaha
MMA is for "Jackass" rejects....all tatted up, skull cap pulled down over their brow and tapout shirt with the neck cut-out. hahaha
Equal losers. hahaha

Another Tyson type, ass kicking ,hell raising

Wrestler vs boxer? I'd put my money on the wrestler.
Wrestler with submissions vs boxer? I'd put my money and my car on the wrestler.
Wrestler with submissions and kickboxing vs boxer? I'd put my house, money and car on the wrestler.
-
well what kind of money is in boxing for most of the pros? not the very few we see in title bouts... but most of them.
actually quite a bit even the mid talent guys make a few million threw out there career's.like the guys that appear on Friday night fights on espn here in America make a few hundred thousand per fight.and they might fight 5-6 times a year.the most paid MMA fighter is broke by boxing standards.

The who would win in a fight debate is pointless, a boxing match is very different from an mma match and vice versa. A street fight is completely different from both, because remember in a street fight there really are no rules or referees.

WINNER
The bullshit debate about boxing vs MMA is old news. If you watched the Evans/Griffin fight it was more or less a kickboxing match. Evans credited part of his win to his increased boxing training.
At the end of the day everyone loves a stand up fight where two guys punch to victory. Nearly all the best MMA highlights are the knockouts.
I love watching the MMA fights and have been for years. But if boxing were to actually revamp the rules and make a push then MMA could be in trouble. In the end tradition always wins and boxing has hundreds of years of tradition.
