Abraham is great as well, although I think he%26#039;ll get beat by Pavlik once that fight happens, probably within the next year.|||Australia and New Zealand|||England|||Cuba !|||panama

What are the benefits of boxing as a way of working out?
I%26#039;m a 22 year old female %26amp; just started boxing as a form of working out.|||Excellent cardio workout. It also works muscles that other exercises have a hard time targeting.
Ever seen a boxer%26#039;s abs? There%26#039;s a reason they look like that.|||Excellent Cardio that is if you train out side of the gym. Because any good boxer has to love to run. You will shed all of those unwanted pounds. Plus you do learn to defend yourself.|||It%26#039;s excelent because you sweat so much you burn lots of calories a very good way to lose weight and very safe.|||Helps get rid of those extra teeth and brain cells.

What kind of cup a 16 year old boy should wear for boxing?
Ok i%26#039;m a 16 year old boy and i am joining boxing. I have to wear a cup and am wondering if they make cups that fit you better than the usual uncomfortable cups. If you know of one that they make that is smaller and fits better that actually works please comment|||marshmallow bag|||Use a thimble, will probably fit!
What was the biggest, anticipated boxing match in th3 1960's?
Plzz tell me the most anticiapated or most important or the best Pro/Ametuer boxing match in the whole 1960%26#039;s era.|||1964 Clay-Liston (ALI)|||probable the first muhammed ali joe frazier fight. before ali was was suspended for not going to war many wanted the fight to occur and when he returned many just billed the event as The Fight it had alot of media build up and thousands attended and millions watched at home.|||C Clay v Henry Cooper

What is your opinion on skill level of mma and ufc vs boxing?
which do you guys think is harder and takes more talent and skill. For example do you think a boxer could make it in mma or an mma fighter could make it in boxing.|||Neither is harder than the other as it comes to skill. Both take strength agility stamina hand eye coordination etc. I agree with what the guy above me said as far as crossovers favoring boxers opposed to mixed martial artists, since they have a distinctive advantage when it comes to hand skills. Most mma fighters train in boxing but dont really focus on standing inside and trading blows. If a boxer were to try doing that in the UFC he would be taken to the mat instantaneously and his aforementioned superior hand skills wouldnt mean dick. For a boxer to become competitive all he%26#039;d really have to master is takedown defense, in order to be successful. For a mma fighter to switch to boxing he%26#039;d basically have to go against his instincts of slamming his opponent to the canvas everytime his opponent went in to clinch(which happens alot in boxing). I%26#039;m no cage fighter but I train BJJ and as soon as a person gets into arms length I start thinking, pummel..get the underhook..and so on and so forth...|||for talent and skill check this out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RGVloJzY...|||there is no difference in actual skill level. They are all world class athletes and the best at their game.
As to crossovers it favours the boxer.
A top MMA guy will not have the specialised genetics for punching power, reflexes or chin to survive even at middle rank boxing levels. This will not change with training either.
With the current UFC rukles a boxer though can learn some basic wrestling defence lessons after a couple of years, enough to defend
even high level grapplers and therefore make a fight out of it.
This is not to say boxers are better or more adaptable than MMA guys. It is more to do with the new UFC rules that are promoting stand ups and fighting against the fence, which favour striking styles.
If it was the early UFC rules with no time limits on the ground, the best grappler would still be unstoppable-he gets the first takedown and never lets the other guy get up again.|||I think the skill level is about the same especially on the championship level but as far as talent it is hard to quantify because I think each sport has enough differences to favor certain talents over another. So it would be hard to say a boxer could go and do this or that and vice versa because if you are exellent in one of them would not mean anything as far as the other is concerned. I think MMA favors more brute strength where as boxing favors more speed and agility. Boxing is a martial art form and I think it is a great sport but to judge which fighting style is better I would have to say MMA just because you have access to all these different ways to disable an opponent instead of just hitting them with your fist. I think if you look across the world all men are the same, if they train they can become dangerous some more so then others so I consider mma guys and boxing guys to be the same, just fighters. I think boxing my favor a taller guy with reach but those guys get beat up a lot in mma because they are easier to take down. It takes years to learn these submission sequences just like it takes years for you to be a great boxer.|||There are MMA fighters who cross over to boxing, and compete in the higher echelon of the sport. I think that Boxers wouldn%26#039;t have an answer for kick or take-downs as they are not a pair of their sport. MMA fighters do have knock out power and accuracy as many a UFC fights have proved.
