Now kids, don't go crazy...I'm a Boxing fan 1st, but I'm also a fan of MMA. Seeing as Dana White's made it clear he's aware of the Sept 19th Floyd vs JMM card, I find it funny how he changed the Main Event and added some really dope fights (for MMA fans).
Card:
Rich Franklin vs Vitor Belfort
Mirko Cro Cop Vs. Junior Dos Santos
Mike Swick Vs. Martin Kampmann
Josh Koscheck Vs. Frank Trigg
Tyson Griffin Vs. Hermes Franca
Efrain Escudero Vs. Cole Miller
and keep in mind, UFC doesn't do 24/7 type promotion for cards even of this magnitude
As I stated!!!!!!! Contradiction in the same breath. U r too transparent.
Why even bother with the post? U so obsessed with pbf that u think/talk like him now. So just like ur idol, u too are FOS!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL, cmon Pancho, lighten up...everything's going to be fine.
What are you yelling at btw? YOU brought up Pacquiao and Cotto, not me. I stated UFC will be a bigger event, but you turned it into Cotto being my idol? LOL not one boxer or athlete is an idol of mine (which apparently may be where your boat resides).
Ralph Tresvant should do your next Bday party. Holla at me, my company can make some arrangements for you :fing02:
LOL once again...
Why all the crying for? I'm stating what I believe will occur, if you think otherwise...cool.
..and don't even mention the Cotto vs Pac fight in comparison to Floyd vs JMM. Don't get it twisted, I'm not pinning my hopes or losing sleep on whether or not JMM vs Floyd will fail, but when the media, fans, this site, and many other forms of media that cover Boxing are talking about a fight that's 3 months away and barely even make mention of 1 coming up in a month and half with Boxing's "former" P4P...you do the math.

Rav, you're a cool poster, i like your posts. But....FUK UFC
U=Underpaid
F=Fighters
C=Club
...but you don't like the UFC anyway. That's like me shitting on a Nascar event not realizing that there are tons of Nascar fans who watch even the smallest race on TBS.
Lol @ a cotto/pacq fan trying to create the delusion of pbf fights losing to ufc/doing poor numbers. This is another failed attempt to destroy the image and dollars of pbf.
NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!
U r a nobody just like all us posters on this forum relative to the bizzness of boxing. Sad thing about it is that the card u r showing for ufc is pretty fuking weak! Especially compared to the boxing card projected for the 19th.
I watch both sports. So I know the difference between a good card and a great card. The boxing card trumps anything the UFC could produce outside of them resurrecting bruce lee.
U FAILED Dumbass but in "RAVISHING" fashion! :loser:
Nxt time post something even u believe.
LOL once again...

Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Juan Manuel Marquez
Chris John vs Rocky Juarez
Zab Judah vs Antonio Diaz
Vicente Escobedo vs Michael Katsidis
Joan Guzman vs Ali Funeka
I think I'll go with this.
Are you serious;
that is a great card

On paper, one of the best boxing cards i can remember in the past 20 years.
MMA fighters aren't written off after a loss because in MMA any fighter can lose by one lucky punch at any time regardless of the skill level. Most of the "exciting" MMA fights are when guys stand up and trade. Which as a boxing fan is almost gutwrenching to watch. The boxing skill level is so far behind it's not funny.
Being that any fighter can get blasted out at any given time, there will never be that same feeling of dramatics caused by two great boxers finally clashing. The build up to a big boxing match is far more exciting then that of an MMA card.
And i love MMA. I don't find much skill in their amatuerish punching abilities but i do enjoy watching the chess match of jiu jitsu.
To clear up the question of what's more exciting, imagine professional boxers wearing 4 oz gloves. Talk about brutality!
are you retarded in the ASS??? LOL. dana did whatever he could do, offered him a boat load of money, but fedor wanted K1 to promote the fight too...thats a no no man, its the UFC's company not K1 or fedors and they gotta raelize that. plain and simple fedor is overrated and is ducking lesnar:alcoholic
Please, a simple concession would have made MMA's biggest fight a reality, the UFC is simply too greedy. If you can't see that you are either a UFC fan or a moron.
I watch both sports pretty religiously and 103 doesn't interest me much. I'll watch it, but would never miss PBF-JMM for it. Especially not since the undercard is shaping up nicely.
i wouldnt care if it did trump it. i like boxing. i will watch it regardless of the court of public opinion. I dont get paid off ppv sales from either company, therefore my value is in entertainment, and i am far more entertained by marquez and floyd than any of those guys on that list, especially fukkin cro-cop who flopped harder than ginobili in the UFC.
But ironically, people will still pay to see him. Unlike Boxing, many MMA fighters aren't written off after a couple losses. Look how many people wrote off Shane Mosley on here 2-3 yrs ago...NOW look at him.

The UFC ****ed up big time when they let Fedor sign elsewhere. A fight versus Lesnar would have been able to easily outsell Mayweather-Marquez.
even though i'm a boxing fan, sorry but my money is going to UFC for this card, this fight is almost a joke
Was Pac v DLH a joke?
Is Pac v Cotto a joke?
Both times a far smaller fighter moving up in weight to challenge a bigger fighter.
The only difference is that Floyd will not have nearly the weight advantage Cotto will have on fight night.

Thats not a big card at all. I thought Franklin was suppose to fight Hendo in a rematch. Cro cop is past his prime and I don't see people ordering this card over the Mayweather fight unless they get another main event
I used to think the same way, but after seeing the UFC's numbers just off regular one main event cards they've had this and last year, I see this one doing real good as well. One thing about UFC fans in general, they buy the product off GP (as a businessman, that's all you can hope and pray for).
It also helps when you have Network TV helping out your promotion.
Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Juan Manuel Marquez
Chris John vs Rocky Juarez
Zab Judah vs Antonio Diaz
Vicente Escobedo vs Michael Katsidis
Joan Guzman vs Ali Funeka
I think I'll go with this.
If this is the Sept 19 card officially, it will be one of the best cards in the last 10 years.
floyd gets better rateings, like he said JMM has a lot of backing in the mexico community and is mexicos top fighter, and theyre fighting on that weekend or watever that is a bix boxing weekend or some shit. i think you all will be surprised to see floyd get better numbers
So the reason why Floyd will do better is that he's piggybacking off of Marquez fame and fighting on a national holiday.
