Boxing also bores me to tears. I used to enjoy it back when Tyson was fighting and knocking heads into the 16th row. Mayweather and Klitschko style have really killed the sport in my opinion. I enjoy the UFC from time to time but there's too many fighters who are content with just taking a guy down and laying on him and doing no damage to abuse the scoring system. I actually feel as though kickboxing is far superior to both UFC and Boxing. GLORY and K-1 are the two major organizations
The good thing is that Dana White agrees with you - guys that try to wrestle **** their open to death inevitably get cut at the first chance. Like Jon Fitch - he was a great winner, but his style was absolute boredom. Usually a top guy will have to lose a few fights in a row before getting cut, but Fitch lose 2 of 3 and was gone.
The bigger problem is it seems like a 50/50 chance that a top fight will get cancelled by an injury (or occasionally, a felony hit and run) - it happens all the time and it's annoying. ..
