Ultimately, the very notion of throwing real punches and blows when its not actually a life or death scenario, or not combat training with proper safety gear, is stupid. It can do some really bad damage even if its not either sport. Both boxing and MMA, if utilized anywhere outside of a real, all-stakes in fight, is simply entertainment. Very violent entertainment. And the risk of injury in stuff like this is always high, regardless of which one it is. I don't like thinking of any combat form as a 'sport', in general. Especially when these fights are as drawn out and prolonged as they get sometimes.
