Ok strange.. have it your way. You just keep ignoring the obvious. I mean.. it's not like MMA has already gone mainstream.. no.. not at all. It's not like a downed opponent is actually knocked out.. you know.. there's no point in grappling or anything.
I don't care what fucking ring the fighters step into. You can't honestly sit there and tell me that a one trick pony is going to beat a multiple trick dog every time just because of a different ring. Oh wait.. are you saying that a MMA fighter just using his boxing skills would get beat? Well that's a little understandable but I think it wouldn't be as dominant from the boxing standpoint that you think it would be. There are a ton of great strikers in MMA that have great angles and even harder punches.
If you don't like the way MMA works.. or you just don't understand it.. or you're just too fucking blind to see it for what it really is.. that's up to you.. and that's your right.. just as it's my right to think it's absolutely looney to say that boxing trumps MMA in any shape form or fashion.
