Boxing vs. Wrestling

[Lustful Butchery]

Which sport you like more?

 

[Bolt]

If you're talking about pro wrestling, I probably like it more. There's so much stylistic variety and athleticism on display, from technical grappling to martial arts and striking skills to acrobatic agility to just plain ballsnasty craziness. Tough question though, I'm a big mark for boxing. More than the sweet science, though, I prefer standup striking sports like K-1, knockdown kyokushin, Muay Thai, sanshou, and even MMA on occasions. Big fight sports fan.

Boxing... not a big fan but when i see it on tv i always stop and watch it, with wrestling i keep changeging channels plus wrestling isnt realy broadcasted in my country anymore..

Hmm....I've grown fond of Boxing as of late. And not just because my homeboy Manny Pacquiao is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

I used to like pro wrestling (in all of its staged glory). But lately, the matches have gotten stale, the storylines distasteful, the newer faces forgettable.

Boxing, on the other hand, has a much more strategic feel to it. And it's pretty darn exciting when you see your favorite fighter pummel his opponent and force him against the ropes.

I'd watch MMA, but I couldn't really get into it.

MMA is a mixed bag and it's also very individual. There are times when a fight will just be killer and both guys will absolutely tear it up with strikes, grappling, submissions, ring control, the whole deal, and it's really a beautiful thing, but there's also those fights that don't go anywhere and end up being two sweaty guys rolling around on the ground for fifteen minutes. It's like anything else really. I like pro wrestling because even though it gets a bad rap sometimes for being "fake" (so is your favorite movie), there is a lot of incredible athleticism and an element of performance art, almost theatrical at times, that goes into a good wrestling match. And I like fight sorts because having fought before in the past myself, I can appreciate the factors that come into play in a good fight. The strategy and execution of techniques in a fighting scenario are nothing to scoff at and the technical aspect is almost unparalleled in the sports world.

I actually prefer mma than both. Imma huge mma fan, but when it comes to boxing and wrestling, I prefer boxing. I use to like watching matches from NOAH but I've grown tired of it

 

[KRBlack]

I went with Wrestling, just because I tend to enjoy it more on a consistent basis. But when done right, there is nothing better than watching the sweet science, I'd take it over MMA or Wrestling.
