I don't like watching MMA, for me it is a very terrible sport...
but I still like boxing because I see boxing is not as free as MMA fights, and the fighters are protected with boxing gloves which are less harmful to the brain.
We're different. It became more interesting to me. After watching some highlights that I happen to scroll down, this makes me want to know more of the known fighters, amateurs and professionals.
Can't compare two different sports, they have different rules and attire.
