Being a top MMA fighter can still make you a millionaire, and id rather be a millionaire in MMA than a multi millionaire in any other sport.
"mma bcuz boxing is out"
Boxing is bigger than ever. The ironic thing is it took MMA's popularity to get boxing to wake up.
top boxer, no doubt. shooting for takedowns and submissions are what you do when you're not winning the punching exchanges. a better question is would you rather be a top boxer or a muay thai champ.
It would be more fulfilling to me to be a top mma fighter bc I love it, but I would prob go with boxing just bc of the pay.
