Where is your justification for the comments "Boxing is dying"??????

most people who prefer MMA say boxing is dying then we have a few huge fights in 2008 and more slated for 2009 2006-07 had the 2 biggest fights(both headlined by mayweather) and now he's gone boxing is still making mad cash and being a huge even no matter who's fighting. boxing will be around for the next 3 centuries easy

The white and black americans only have a handful of fighters they can associate themselves with. In mma they have tons of fighters they root for and can relate to. I know that sounds dumb but its the truth. but MMA cant match the money generated by boxing,and never will

I think the boxing haters generally come to that conclusion due to the sport not being the centerpiece of American culture anymore. Back when it was America's pastime, when Joe Louis was a hero, when Ali had half the Country against him, when Tyson captivated those who didn't even watch boxing, and more recently, when De La Hoya was more popular than any A lister in Hollywood. It doesn't transcend itself anymore. There's no denying that. But it's still as good now as it ever was, in my opinion. Infact, I'd argue that it's better now in terms of talent. Though all the belt really do kinda put a dent in things.
