BOXING VS MMA: Which Is More Dangerous? | Dr. Chris

[reasonable_doubter]

...so boxing, much like american football, is very dangerous.....

Boxing is more dangerous due to the head shots but those mma cats take full body abuse from head to toe.. mfrs gotta worry about getting kicked in the head or getting a bone purposely broke or dislocated

its easly boxing because more than half of mma is ground game. boxing is blow after blow.

I'd rather have my toe or something broken instead of having my head bashed in

Two boxers died after their respective fights this year I think boxing is way more dangerous

Two different viewpoints/arguments.

For impact injuries, bone breaks, reconstructive surgery, MMA.
For career duration via accumulative trauma, boxing.

That’s true I agree.

However I can understand some people being less than impressed by MMA, the continued attack once someone has hit the deck is a brutal look no doubt.

But that being said, boxing has the same situation, just not as graphic. The difference being that the fighter is better at masking their concussion due to training, movement and impact protection from gloves to an extent.

First time I used head gear in sparring I was amazed by how effective it was at masking the impact of a punch. A real surprise, next day though.

In the Joe Rogan interview, Crawford said for everything? Mma but the head injuries, its boxing.
