Floyd Mayweather says MMA is for animals & whites who couldn't cut it in boxing
UKnowWhatItIs: welcome to my traps....game over:
Thats bull, you got all these black dudes like Rashad & Rampage that have been or are champions & I'm only talking about the UFC. Theres lots of promotions in & out the US that concentrate on MMA. MMA is mixed martial arts, that means boxing is also a part of it. Some of these guys actually come from boxing backgrounds & have real knockout power so to say Floyd would run circles around them in boxing - get real ::) Oh & if someone doesn't know their jiu-jitsu or wrestling, of course they're gonna be bored watching someone doing takedowns on the next man & MMA isn't only about that, you got a whole bunch of matches were noone goes to the ground & is all stand up.

Naw, thats not it. Its just boring lol. I mean, at first I got into it a little. But its nothing compared to a good boxing match to me. And yes, some of these guys come from boxing backgrounds...but its completely ridiculous to think any of these guys would stand a chance in a boxing ring with a world class boxer fighting under boxing rules. Just the same, like I said, a boxer wouldnt be able to compete in a MMA ring under MMA rules. Either fighter will always have a "punchers" chance. But its two completely different styles of fighting. Boxers spend their entire life training to box with their hands. Nothing else is used. You can imagine how skilled they become, particulary an elite fighter. MMA fighters, even if FROM a boxing background are probably not elite boxers...or they would have kept boxing. They work on a lot of aspects of MMA, not necessarily focusing on just ONE particular aspect. Meaning, they are skilled overall....but the boxer who only trains his hands...will have more skill in his hands. Fighting under his rules gives him the advantage. I couldnt even imagine what would happen to an MMA fighter in the ring with a boxer the Caliber of say a Shane Mosley. With his power and hand speed, any MMA fighter would be lucky to land a punch...or last more then a couple rounds (in a boxing ring under boxing rules).

yeah Shane would fuck Rashard up in a boxing match but im sure in wrestling or jui jitsu Rashard would show him a couple of things

exactly. Its like comparing a pitcher to a quarterback. They both throw a ball, but a quarterback would not necessarily be a great pitcher, and a pitcher would not necessarily be a great quarterback.
