You don't get killed in boxing like you do in MMA. Pillow hands only vs MMA gloves + elbows + legs 

Wtf? You do get killed in Boxing like in any bloodsport actually many people have died and picked up horrific injuries, have you ever been hit with an actual boxing glove to be saying this as the impact is immense as it spreads out the force of the punch, all it protects is the Boxer's knuckles.

This, besides there's the fact that in box most hits are to the head or just the upper body. Matches last longer too, and even if one hit in particular won't be as hard as a kick on the head I'd say it's worse for the body that you get 50 punches to the head that don't instantly knock you over a kick that quickly ends the match.

In the long run I see boxing more damaging to the body
