My uncle has a Boxing gym in Australia and he says there are so many Thai and Filipino fighters traveling over to Australia to start Boxing and he says they started in Kick Boxing and Muay Thai but left that because there is just so much more money and opportunity in Boxing. I was just wondering why is there so much more money in Boxing than all these other fighting sports?
LOL yes lets end this obviously your ego cant comprahend that Ricans are Hispanic just like the rest of us latin American people.
I dont think you have a clue what you are talking about.
Look at the middle east, the kurds have no country but they have their own language and culture but you may just call them arabs which may be insulting to them.
Look at Iran, they are Persians but you may just call them arabs too, which would also be insulting.
There is many ethnic minorities around the world, you just have to open your eyes and look a little closer.
Your views seem fairly ignorent to me.
LOL at the butt hurt MMA fools. Their discussion has nothing to do with the original question.
The answer is boxing is the biggest combat sport on the planet with the largest fan base. Hence, the most money from sponsorship and therefor the most money to pay the fighters.
This is not a difficult question to answer, its simple economics. The market has dictated this, not hype or company spokesmen. Boxing is simply a better product, as evidenced by its long-term appeal and world wide market-share.
Take the NFL for example, its huge in the states but has struggled to make it mark on the rest of the planet. Contrast it with what Americans call soccer, limited viewership in the states but its the largest sport in the world.
Thai fighting while large in Thailand and the Netherlands is for the most part unheard of anywhere else.
The market dictates this not pitchmen or butt hurt fans. What do the most people want to spend their money on?
If a young cat from the ghetto wants to take a shot at the big dollars he can only doing it in one combat sport, BOXING.
Our "debate" ends here.
Your a racist(PERIOD).
Your only defense is that you can make racist remarks because we are the same people. Even though our history, geography, and nationalities are different.
I'm sorry but there is no immunity for your racial and ethnic remarks.:no:

If Margarito cheated then Im gonna quit watching boxing
If you don't know you are cheating how exactly are you a cheater?
Cotto complainers....It's over!
You are a disgusting person if you are happy that Tony was injured.
Here are your dumb racist remarks quoted from your threads:
” like the silly Island rat you”
“this coming from a man who lives on a conquered territory”
“you numbnut Island rats”
“Of course the Puerto Rican would bring up homosexuality”
“Apperently you fuking Island rats don't know”
“Island rats clinging to their excuses”
“Puerto ricans are Americans and some of the dumbest Americans to boot!”
“No offense but blacks in the US arn't exactly setting new testing records”
‘Island rats calling Margarito a cheater”
“Just like I attack Ricans all the time, Im not attacking a race of people”
“Stupid Rican!”
“So what if I have sex with men, thats my business dumb Rican!”

Yea I know all MMA fans favorite part of the sport is the knock outs not the dry humping~
What does that tell you.

they sell more because they spend more money on advertising. Thats why they don't have any money left to pay their fighters.
If the fighters demand more money they will cut back on advertising and lose allot of PPV
LOL yeah thats right they don't pay the fighters becasue they spend all of it on advertising. It has nothing to do with that, they pay their fighters shhitt because they have no compatition. Why in the world would they pay fighters 20 million dollars when there is no other orginization in the world that can even pay their fighters 500,000? Seriously dude you think Pac or De La Hoya would of made crazy money if Bob arum was the only promoter in boxing?
LOL come on now I know you are smarter than that!
You do know that there is a crap ton of fist striking in the UFC? And Like I said before UFC sells out every PPV a handful of boxers can sell out an arena.

MMA wil never be as big as boxing. when people hear about mma they think "wow thats cool" but after watching a couple of fights they realise it's just two guys dry humping each other.
Thats why it does almost a million PPV sales Month in and Month out?
Just consider this two fights are going on outside a bar, one a stand up fist fight the other a wrestling match which will have the biggest crowd surrounding it.
People love fist fighting at least in America.

I'm not saying it's a fad. What I'm saying is just because you have a show on ESPN doesn't really mean much at all. ESPN is looking to make money, no matter what bottom feeder sport they are willing to take. MMA isn't my thing but all hate aside it's a bit crazy to compare it to boxing. Boxing is a global sport and in nearly every country is the number one combat sport. Yeah, it may be close to the same level in the United States(debatable) but that is one nation, there's 200 other ones.
Ugh it's huge in England, Australia, and has always been huge in Japan. They just had their first show in German and it sold out the o2 arena. Oh but boxing is bigger kazakhstan my bad!
