    This document compares and contrasts MMA (mixed martial arts) and boxing. It notes that MMA allows both standing combat techniques like punching as well as ground techniques like takedowns, whereas boxing only allows punching from a standing position. A study found that MMA fights ended in knockout or technical knockout more often than boxing matches, indicating a higher risk of brain trauma. While boxing can be more of a business focused on profits, MMA tends to involve more full-contact aggression between competitors throughout the fight. In the end, an MMA fighter is considered more likely to win a combat encounter than a boxer due to the wider array of techniques allowed.

    MMA vs Box
    "A boxer is like a lion, the biggest predator on earth, but you throw it in
    a shark tank and it's just another meal"

    For a long time contact sports have been evolving but this time we will
    talk about and treat the issue of MMA VS BOX because there has
    been much controversy about which is better and here we will clarify
    that. And as mentioned above, lions are only food for sharks.

    The MMA is a sport where the combination of combat techniques from


    various traditional and modern martial arts is used in order to use it for
    competition in combat sport or for non-armed personal defense.
    The use of mixed martial arts is the greatest contact that exists, since it
    allows both the use of techniques to fight standing or striking (striking:
    punches, kicks, knees, elbows, etc.) and techniques to fight on the
    ground or grabs (grappling: drops, throws, keys, joint dislocations,
    strangulations, etc.) that come from a variety of other combat
    disciplines or martial arts such as karate, kickboxing, boxing, muay
    thai, taekwondo, judo, wrestling, wrestling Greco-Roman, Brazilian Jiu-
    Jitsu, Wushu, San Da, Sambo, among others.
    Now we will talk about the box is a combat sport in which two
    opponents fight using only their fists with gloves, hitting their opponent
    from the waist up, inside a quadrilateral specially designed for that
    purpose; the fight is carried out in short sequences of fight called
    assaults or rounds and according to a precise regulation, which
    regulates weight categories and duration of the meeting, among other
    aspects.
    As we can see there is a big difference between these two sports but
    still what makes the MMA much more real I mean that in a study
    conducted by the Researchers of the University of Toronto examined
    the records and videos of 884 bouts of " Ultimate Fighting
    Championship "from 2006-2012 for a study which has been published
    this month. They found that in 108 fights or almost 13 percent ended in
    knockouts. Another 179 fights, or 21 percent, ended in technical
    knockouts, usually after a fighter was hit in the head 5 to 10 times in
    the last 10 seconds before the fight was stopped.

    A study by the American Journal of Sports Medicine found that a third


    of professional MMA fights end by knockout or technical knockout,
    indicating a higher incidence of brain trauma than boxing.
    With this we can understand better that the box is much more
    marketing than the MMA. A clear example is the boxer Floyd
    Mayweather, if you get to observe in detail his fights he just walks
    around the ring to avoid contact with his opponent and thus not hurt
    himself while winning millions of dollars, instead if you see a fight of
    MMA you can Realize that the hostilities between the opponents is
    much more aggressive and when the assaults begin both competitors
    go out to hit each other with all their might no matter how much money
    they are going to win.
    On the other hand, the box is considered more a business than a sport
    because its profits are much greater than any other sport and that
    causes a large part of the population to bet on boxing events.
    We know that they are different sports and we can´t compare them at
    all but something that is very evident is that a person who practices
    MMA is more likely to win than a boxer because of the combat
    characteristics.
    Because a lion can´t be with a shark. The result will always be the
    same, it is just one more meal.
