If you like a good scrap? You can find a good scrap in both sports. I can't really see how a Boxing fan can't at a minimum respect MMA. Boxing is incorporated into MMA. Truth is, MMA is VERY young as a sport in the US. As MMA is evolving more as a sport? I think you will see more "sport strategies" to win fights and the excitement level will decrease. If Dana is as heavy handed as I believe he will be with acquisitions and "good" style determinations, the sport will move more towards human **** fighting rather than a quality combat sport. I hope MMA respects it takes all types.
