Would you say boxing is more tougher than rugby?

I currently play rugby but I have been having a burning desire to get into boxing. I box at my health club, hitting the bags for fitness n what not. You guys think I can give boxing a go coming from rugby?

    Having done both - I felt in control when on a one to one situation in the boxing ring. I had more injuries from Rugby. But loved the game.
