boxers train with a huge amount of intensity and repetition, which results in a powerful guy who's basically "hard as a coffin nail", to quote Snatch. their punches are probably the best in the MA world, and keeping it simple can sometimes be an advantage.
there's huge variances in asian MA, but i think you'll find two basic things for any of them as compared to boxing/MT/BJJ:
1) 99.9% of schools will be less intense in their physical training and drilling.
2) you'll cover a greater range of situations.
