There's always the fear for being taken down in MMA, something you don't have to worry about in Boxing.

but boxings talent pool is deeper, to agree with an extant MMA is still a grapplers sport

ronnie vs dorian, apples or oranges, mma vs boxing.....give me a fucking break.....Let me guess.....the TS probably doesnt know shit about mma besides maybe a few big names like lesnar and couture(who are retired), and nothing more. this "legend" you are talking about is a nobody. probably a legend in your local gym or something. yea, he would kick my ass, but thats not the point. And TS is also a big boxing fan. Am i right about you, TS? Watch some ufc or old pride vids before posting some shit like this and learn about real legends

look....we can go on and on and on about which sport is better, more brutal, harder to train for etc, etc. its amazing how so many ass clowns on here act like they are the "experts" at these contact sports when all u are showing is a bias toward one of the sports. Unless you've trained with the top dogs in BOTH sports, you cant talk shit about either one cause you dont know shit. 4oz gloves vs 16oz gloves, 12 3min rds vs 5 5min rds, great fights, boring fights, big paydays, shit payday...who gives a fuck....both sports take a shit load of cardio and countless forms of training and always a good possibilty someones going to get their ass kicked. simply put...you put a boxer in an mma ring, he will get his ass beat, regardless of how great he is. put 16oz gloves on an mma fighter in a boxing ring.....well same shit duh. being a fan of both, i respect both.

When it comes to be a world champion and fight top competition boxing is 10 x harder  than MMA  ,if he's talking about training I would say MMA and boxing are the same ,if he's talking about pain ,getting  hurt ,etc  MMA is  harder than boxing, when it comes to long term side effects boxing is more dangerous than MMA.

Good post.

Donny,

Everyone is welcome to fight me.  I've put this out to all of the tough guys on the board in the past.  I have an academy I fight in and will gladly set us up for 1-2 hours in vale tudo fighting (all goes).  We can fight until one of us taps out or simply gets knocked out.  Afterwards, we can go out and have a nice beer.

Whenever you decide to visit New York, let me know and we can set this up and tape it for the forum.

I'm always up for a good challenge,
"1"
I will fight you with knives.

Here is why boxing is harder.

People make the point all the time that in  boxing, you don't have to defend for a takedown.

Exactly.

Think about that class, and then i shall give you the answer

I'll give you a football analogy to help,

what's the harder pass to complete. a 5 yard toss to a tight end who just came off the line of scrimmage or a 40 yard bomb downfield to a double covered wide reciever
