Boxing whooped UFC, read the article

I just found this article on google news, states how mma has a a looong way to go if they even wanna compete with boxing as far as numbers go, so suck on a cock Dana White The main thing that we learned from Mayweather vs. Marquez, and the competing UFC event, is that mixed martial arts still has a long way to go. It was billed as a head-to-head showdown, the first time that boxing and MMA would be trying to garner views from the same pool. Turns out, it was about as exciting as the Mayweather fight. In a show of dominance, the Mayweather event clobbered UFC 103 and sent MMA purists scrambling for answers. For the past couple of years people have been under the perception that boxing is a dying sport, and MMA was ready to reap the benefits. Well, boxing is not dead, and MMA still has a lot of work to do before they are even in the game. The pressure to carry a pay-per-view event was squarely on Mayweather's shoulders, and just like his defensive roll, he was more than adequate, selling over one million units. The MMA community says that this was due to the fact that the UFC event was one that lacked true headliners, and that may be correct, but what about boxing's true headliners? Mayweather has never been one to carry a card himself, and there was a lot made of that fact. He was part of one of the biggest fights of all time by box office accounts, but that was credited with his opponent, Oscar De La Hoya. If boxing and UFC were to go head-to-head, with both promoting top fighters would the results be any different? Probably not. An event consisting of Anderson Silva and Brock Lesnar would probably be demolished by the upcoming Miguel Cotto and Manny Pacquiao fight. For all the death bells that have been sounding for boxing, the sport still has a large and loyal following. This has to be considered to, there are boxing fans who would never watch MMA, but few MMA fans show much disdain for boxing. My theory on this is that boxing is seen as a more honorable sport, with emphasis being put on technique and hand-to-hand combat, while MMA is viewed as anything goes
