As a general rule martial arts in general is more dangerous and versatile then boxing.
But combining boxing and martial arts is one of the best things you can do. Have the locks, grabs, grapples, kicks and various other strikes, blocks and counters of martial arts and the supreme striking power of boxing, there are few styles that can rival boxing's sheer power of a punch.
Combine the two and you have the best of both worlds, that's what I do and it gives me great versatility. Plus I can get in there really close and lay on them with boxing combos which I can do at very short range and are hard to counter once you get going especially if someone isn't used to going up agaisnt a boxer.
Of course I wasn't taught MMA but our schools own special form of martial arts.
MMA attracts more idiots That makes it dangerous. All the head hits (K. O.) in boxing cause brain damage. That makes it dangerous too.
lmao @ all these people who think boxing is nothing. I mean these days it's kind of shit but no, you wouldn't stand any better of a chance against a good boxer.
MMA - All the way. Boxing is limited in techniques.
I'm just wondering, do you do boxing or MMA by any chance?
@Flow_like_the_wind I do martial arts, but still not MMA.
Interesting. What kind do you do?
@Flow_like_the_wind Kickboxing, Kung Fu (Wing Chun) and Judo.
Nice! I do a bunch including kickboxing and a little bit of judo not too much. I've never did wing chun.

Depends what you learn. Some MMA disciplines are totally useless, some are hard to counter.
All I know is, I'd much rather fight a trained boxer than someone trained in MMA.
MMA is more dangerous.
But I really dislike both of them. Well, it depends on how it is taught for me to determine if I like it or not. Most MMA schools don't know what they are doing.
But in boxing, you don't be put in chokes that cut off blood flow to the brain.
Boxing definitely
You really think so?
@madelacroix yeah I think myke Tyson would kick Bruce Lee's ass because boxing is faster it's just hitting hitting and hitting
Maybe Tyson in his prime. Lol
@madelacroix yeah or Muhammad Ali
LOL, no way, Tyson wouldn't stand a chance against Bruce Lee, Muhammad Ali - maybe.
Bruce Lee was much faster, and had more stamina. He could knock down big guys with a single punch from close range (one-inch punch technique), not to mention his kicks and submission techniques (chokeholds, arm bars, joint locks, pressure point compressions etc).
a gun.
They are for weak cowards? Lol, I know a couple of people who own guns and they easily beat my ass without one.
