Original

I like UFC because it’s so real. It’s not kind of a show. It’s not pretend or organized. It’s instinctive. Boxing has more rules compared to UFC. I think it’s more popular than UFC. With popular I mean, it’s more mature than UFC. Only minority people learn  and watch UFC. Boxing is a universal game, it’s even one of the game in the Olympic. More boxing games  on show than UFC. I think UFC is blocked in many countries.

If you watch a lot of boxing games, you can learn how to defense when you fight with somebody in real. It’s not easy. If you play boxing, you need to hold up your hands up to your face. That’s very important during the real fighting. Once people hit your head, you will lose conscious for a bit moment. You will be like knock down. You may hit your head against the cage, it is very pain.
