How would a tennis player do against a badminton player?


In tennis? He'd win. In badminton, he'd lose.




End of story.





These threads crack me up. Everyone sat on here debating who and what. I like both MMA and Boxing. I've trained in both (and still do).

Just as talented, just as hard, just as tough, just as physically and mentally demanding as each other.



Boxing, as you all know, is a VERY, VERY technical (and very brutal) game of chess - just as BJJ is on the floor. A world championship level boxer could play with ANYONE in a boxing ring and toy with them, just as a BJJ black belt would do on the mats.

Why must people always debate which is the tougher and hardest sport?

LOL

These threads will always come up when someone as high profile as mayorga or james toney tries to switch sports.

Why can't people accept this, and if inclined to do so abstain from the conversation, instead of trolling out the politically correct "both sports are equal just different" line?

I accept that fact.

I'm not 'trolling out the politically correct "both sports are equal just different line" line' either - I'm saying it as it's my opinion.

I don't mind a bit of talk about MMA/Boxing as it is interesting to see how the two different sports play out against each other....but threads involving this type of conversation (who'd win in a street fight? Which is better? What would happen if Ike didn't get locked up? Floyd is the greatest) happen a lot.


It was merely an observation on my behalf that I commented on...nothing more, nothing less.
