MMA and Boxing are two distinct sports. each with its own set of rules. there is no point in comparing the two. in the cage the advantage always will go to the more well rounded fighter unless the more well rounded fighter chooses to foolishly try to stand with the strict boxer. in K-1 boxers like Shannon Briggs have seen some success against MMA fighters who disrespect the real power a boxer like Briggs has, just ask Tom Erikson. boxing is a sport by itself, just like Judo or BJJ. they all have excellent points on thier own but can all be mixed together to get something else.
