Daniel Cormier Says UFC Beats Modern Boxing After Crawford-Canelo Fight

Cormier reignited boxing-vs-MMA talk, calling UFC “more fun” and “better” than today’s boxing. He pointed to Crawford’s tactical win over Alvarez as “not fun,” arguing elite boxers now “control” fights more than past eras. Critics note UFC still allows long grappling stretches—often several minutes of top control—yet Cormier says the variety keeps cards moving for casuals and hardcores alike.
