Heh? Did you really go down with a knife to the chest? I'd have yanked that sucker out and thrust it through my opponent's eye while he was reeling, but hey-ho, good fight, I'll call it.
Its pretty big. Boxers are fairly predictable. Unless they fight dirty, it's all hands. No kicks, no takedowns.
MMA? Martial arts, kicks, knees, elbows, ground game. If you can keep them up, you havw a shot, even if they are strikers with the hands.
Yeah in a ring I suppose you're right, but I'd still give myself a decent chance against all that rolling and falling on the floor if I can just shank the hell out of them, so that tells you something about knife vs fists.
