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.

Yes I'm the ignorant person here. I mean.. who would have guessed I was just using an over-exaggeration of the sport? Poeple aren't sarcastic. It's ok though.. I don't know what I'm talking about.. I just happen to have been involved in both sports.. and have several friends who train with top class talent on a daily basis and could be possibly in contract talks with UFC. No biggie.. I'm just an ignorant fuck
We all know that both sports require a heavy amount of training. We all know what boxing has become. With the exception of the Mexican circuit, I don't ever see passion in the boxing rings anymore. It's just simply do what you have to do to cash your check. I have found it so boring in the last 9-10 years it's pathetic. This is why I found MMA and one reason I find it inherently better. There seems to be more passion and desire in that sport.. I would much rather watch a sport that had passionate players than cry-babies who took a hit from a bad promoter..
