I've honestly never been a huge fan so I'm curious what the appeal is for you guys and gals.

I feel like boxing is more of a pure sport then MMA. Especially the old school fighters up through the 80s and early 90s.
MMA and UFC is more like a street fight to me. I still watch. But I’d take a boxing match like Hagler/Hearns all day every day over a UFC fight. It’s more entertaining imo.
I’m old so I grew up on boxing. Nothing against mma, I think it’s great, but always been a fan of the chess match going on. One of my buddy’s was a heavyweight pro turned coach so I bowed with him for year( used it as my cardio). I do think the boxing today rarely has the magic of old. Haggler was always my favorite fighter so when he’d fight Hearns or sugar ray etc. it was electric.but, basically if someone is getting knocked out , I’m in!!!!Like savage said.
