MMA approximates fighting for survival, whereas Boxing amounts to fighting for show. There are NO rules in knock-down drag-out street fighting, and the fewer rules you have the more closely you approximate the skills necessary for such.

I believe that if you're going to fight, you might-as-well fight like its your last fight, so I'd prefer MMA over boxing.

The points are relatively moot as I don't enjoy either; I don't get any sort of enjoyment out of watching two people attack one another, whether there are rules in place or not.
