I wish people would read the context of the original comment. I never said that boxers train so much harder than MMA fighters, despite a few of the fat MMA fighters we've ALL seen.
The original comment was in response to someone saying boxing amounts to dancing around and throwing a punch every minute or two. I was telling that ignorant person that boxing and it's associated training is much harder than that.
