9 Reasons Why MMA Is Better Than Boxing

Posted on October 12, 2022 by A. J. Riot

Even historically speaking, MMA predates boxing by quite a bit of time. MMA fighting took birth during the Greek era, sometime around 648 BCE. In fact, MMA was one of the competitive sports played during the ancient Olympic games, a tradition of combat sports that sportstv continues to celebrate and cover with in-depth analysis and updates. While boxing as a sport only came into proper existence sometime around the 16th century. So, in some ways, the recent popularity of MMA fighting sports is also a resurgence of what combat sports once looked like.

What do the early odds reveal about a blockbuster fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua?

Posted on September 13, 2022 by A. J. Riot

The road back to the summit of professional heavyweight boxing for Anthony Joshua appeared to be a long and winding one after losing to Oleksandr Usyk. It was, after all, Joshua’s second loss to the Ukrainian in as many fights. Furthermore, following a questionable reaction to the judges’ decision to award Usyk a split decision win, it was hard to picture the Englishman in the ring anytime soon. Indeed, Joshua’s stock had plummeted to an all-time low and the future looked uncertain. That was until Tyson Fury handed Joshua the chance to return to the top of the sport.
Boxing is, of course, a game of smoke and mirrors with callouts often designed to raise the profile of an individual’s career rather than being consistently genuine. However, in this case, a fight between the Brits looks to be extremely likely after Fury’s callout given that the latest betting UK boxing odds have already given both fighters a price, with Fury at 1/4 and Joshua further out at 11/4.
Unsurprisingly, the most recent sports predictions pieces have thrown their weight behind Fury who is still undefeated in his career. In some respects though, the odds make for curious reading given the evident gulf in class between the two boxers that has been proven beyond doubt over the last few years.

At least, Joshua’s odds of 11/4 don’t necessarily indicate that he has a mountain to climb whilst the reality is that Fury would be the trickiest opponent of his career so far. Yes, that price makes Joshua the outsider but after the last 36 months that the Watford-born fighter has had, you would expect them to be considerably longer. Indeed, losses to Andy Ruiz Jr and Usyk have illustrated that Joshua has very real and exploitable weaknesses which Fury should be able to play on at will.
To a certain extent, Fury’s odds of 1/4 back that up but there is little doubt that the boxing markets are adjusting their prices accordingly to accommodate the Englishman’s inactivity given what it could mean on the night against Joshua who has remained active.
Admittedly, Fury has, with the help of his social media channels, presented an image of a fighter who regularly trains despite announcing his retirement after beating Dillian Whyte in April. There is, however, a distinct difference between being in a legitimate training camp in the lead-up to a fight and creating humorous content from the gym every few days for one’s followers.

Note to self : I got to work harder pic.twitter.com/etUMTPvsp3

— Anthony Joshua (@anthonyjoshua) September 2, 2022


This is where it gets interesting as the odds, as initially alluded to, have just about kept Joshua in the contest as 11/4. These prices could change as the fight, which will be potentially scheduled for the end of the year, gets nearer, but you imagine that for them to do that, Fury would have to be put through his paces during an arduous training camp.

In reality, it will come down to whether a somewhat inactive Fury can beat a faltering Joshua who will, intriguingly, be fitter. When everything is added up, this may not be as clear-cut as the boxing community is making it out to be with the odds leaving the door ajar for an upset.

Why is Las Vegas the Capital of Combat Sports?

Posted on August 28, 2022 by A. J. Riot

If you’ve bought tickets to see a big fight, there’s a very good chance that you’ll be heading to Las Vegas to see it. No matter whether it’s boxing, mixed martial arts, or even wrestling, there are always plenty of events taking place in the middle of the Nevada desert.

Of course, it’s not the only place you can watch fighters go toe-to-toe. There are plenty of places in the world and the rest of the United States where matches are hosted such as Jacksonville, Florida but, more often than not, the biggest bouts take place in Vegas.

Why is this and how did it happen? Let’s take a look.

Which is Better to Watch: MMA or Boxing?

Posted on July 22, 2022 by A. J. Riot

Mixed martial arts gave the combat sports scene a major shot in the arm when it emerged in the mid-1990s. Boxing, which had long ruled the fighting landscape, would mostly dismiss its more brutal counterpart until the UFC was able to establish itself as a legitimate organization. Since MMA has emerged past its “human cockfighting” origins and developed into a more established sport, its popularity has grown.

But much like with anyone making Premier League predictions, there is plenty of debate about whether MMA has passed up the “Sweet Science” as a more watchable combat sport than boxing. While both sports are full of their characters and personalities, MMA has one edge over boxing that helps make things a little bit more entertaining. The MMA world is ruled by a monopoly, the UFC, that helps bring the best competitors together. There are external forces that have crippled boxing.

Here’s what makes MMA better to watch than boxing.

Dana White unconvinced by Francis Ngannou & Tyson Fury hybrid MMA fight speculation

Posted on May 10, 2022 by A. J. Riot

We’ve been there before, so if current UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou and reigning WBC Heavyweight Boxing Champion Tyson Fury get their own way, we’ll be there again. Just ask previous crossover combatants Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather, when their 2017 bout in Las Vegas became a license to print money.

Indeed, that will inevitably be the biggest motivation for both Ngannou and Fury, should the two get it on in the ring for a crossover encounter, as the best of MMA takes on arguably the top heavyweight boxer in the world. But when asked if it can and even should happen, UFC supremo Dana White believes it’s a “silly” idea.

Due to contractual obligations, Ngannou would of course need to seek backing from the UFC and White, although that doesn’t seem to be something the latter is willing to provide. During his appearance on the Pat McAfee Show which airs online at YouTube, White was pretty damning of the whole idea.

“F*cking waste of time, energy, and money,” said White of any proposed boxing match between Ngannou and Fury. “It’s silly, but I get it,” added the boss of UFC, clear that both fighters would only be in this for the money. This is quite a stark difference of opinion compared to 2017, when former two-division UFC champion Connor McGregor and boxing icon Floyd Mayweather were about to fight, accompanied with his own blessing.

What Is the Path to Becoming a Professional Boxer?

Posted on February 1, 2022 by A. J. Riot

What Is the Path to Becoming a Professional Boxer?

Veteran Boxers Due an Indian Summer in 2022

Posted on January 5, 2022 by A. J. Riot

The New Year was seen in by two veteran heavyweights treating their fans to a slugfest, as the betting favourite Luis Ortiz recovered from two knockdowns to defeat Charles Martin. At 42-years of age Ortiz showed that there is still plenty of fight in the old dog yet, delivering for oddschecker free bet users who’d backed him to KO the one-time Anthony Joshua victim. Even if his punch resistance appears to be on the wane, with Martin putting him down with an innocuous jab at one worrying point in the contest, Ortiz will still be given more than a puncher’s chance by bookies against whoever he happens to face next.

Ortiz has now set himself up for bigger and better fights in 2022, with some of the top contenders likely to fancy their chances against the veteran Cuban. Here we cast an eye over other elite level veteran boxers who may just be about to have an Indian summer to remember this year; putting father time back in his box for at least another twelve months.

David Haye is Back; and He Wants to Fight Tyson Fury

Posted on September 13, 2021 by A. J. Riot

We are seeing a wave of old boxing talent get back into the ring and showcase their skills once more. Of course, one of the main reasons they do this is money, however one fighter to do it recently has gone a step further, to call out one of the biggest fighters in the world.

David Haye returned to the ring for an exhibition event against Joe Fournier, a fight that took place on a card in Florida. It wasn’t the only bout to feature former boxers, with the headline act being former champion Evander Holyfield, who was beaten by Vitor Belfort.
