Default Re: why no mma to boxing conversions?

[ QUOTE ]
If the answer was so obvious, then why post the question at all.

[/ QUOTE ]

that wasn't "the answer". that was the leading and obvious reason why it isn't common, it doesn't prove that it shouldn't occur. people have attempted to play multiple professional sports before (baseball and football, basketball and baseball, etc) and the big ones who tried it didn't even have signifigant financial motivation to do so. crossing sports like that is a lot more difficult because of the game differences, not to mention the scheduling.

the post is more of an opening discussion as to how difficult it would be for an mma fighter to convert, who tried it in the past and failed, that sort of thing. please just refrain from posting in the thread. did you honestly think it would be like, "mma and boxing are different." "oh wow! i didn't notice that...thanks for the answer!"
