Sport to sport the UFC seems to have more dominant/popular white fighters than boxing does.
Is this one of the reasons among white americans at least it's more popular than boxing? I think black americans still follow boxing somewhat more.
All I need is a fighter to have a connection to Canada to cheer for them.
Boxing will always matter way way more to me than MMA.
On a basis of skin? I like that there is less tattoos in boxing.
Are you fuking retarded?
Take the time to read my post. Notice the question marks???? It was a reply to a previous post. Stay in your own lane...........
I've always thought mma was pretty diverse. If you look at the goats you have a Russian a black guy a French Canadian and a Brazilian.
I think its popular for the same reason mumble rap is popular.

I disagree, respectfully. I believe you have a much broader array of talent from every country, which in turns makes it seem like more of a “caucasin” following. I know we rep a lot of boxers from diff countries, but look at the amount of publicity, media, and general advertising to a much more diverse audience with mma. Just my opinion.
Lomachenko usyk fury golovkin canelo bivol gvozdyk all seem to be okay at stand up fighting
I’m going on average but I agree Lomachenko is the most skillful boxer today hands down but I was also referring to USA Whites
ROFL okay I can sorta see Golovkin as he is 75% white, 25% Korean but that Bivol guy looks full Asian/Donkey hybrid. Don't know where the donkey part comes from but he doesn't look white at all, and he is nothing special in the stand up.
True they both have very Mongoloid features, where do yo get the percentages?

Bivol and Golovkin have a lot of Asian (Mongoloid) in them, I would not call them white.
The average casual fan looks at mma as a fight and they can't process the art of boxing. They get bored too quick.
I think this is true too.
People want a quick fix. I think UFC fans want to see blood. They want pure violence. Don’t get me wrong. Boxing fans like a good ol fashion slugfest too, but a purist boxing fan appreciates the art form of scoring points and watching high level moves. Things that UFC fans wouldn’t appreciate.
That’s why I hear people say, “boxing’s boring.”
They don’t appreciate the small things that a master boxer might do. The footwork, pivots, a well timed counter, the evasive movement, feints, a good jab.
But a lot of the people who say boxing boring only know PPV Mayweather fights. To them, Mayweather fights encompass all of boxing, which is really unfortunate. For every boring fight there is, there are at least 2 or 3 real fun ones. Just last night we had 2 real good fights on ESPN.
I think it’s the same thing as others already said. More whites in the suburbs and more white people in wrestling.
Boxing always been more of an urban or poor sport.
