    Here's the deal...both boxing and UFC will be around for a long time.

    But...
    Boxing will always be the big brother. UFC makes the most noise because they want to prove they are better. Dana White never misses an oppurtunity to bash boxing. Why? It's a complex. Yes boxers do talk trash about about UFC and vice versa. Right now UFC has nothing to worry about until their fighters begin complaining about you know what-money? Then scandals and politics will be involved just like in all other sports. The reason Boxing will never have to worry about the "boxing product" is this: The best UFC fights will never compare to the best Boxing matches-----Castillo vs Corrales
    Barerra vs Morales, Gatti vs Ward, Ali vs Foreman

    No science will ever be sweeter than two warriors with the same weapons: Their Fists!

      I don't know if the UFC is going to grow it's business by attacking Boxing..

      It will turn off many people in the Boxing community and fanbase though.


      I feel markedly different about UFC since I started hearing all this nonsense.


      Dana White has revealed his character by getting into a childish feud with Tito Ortiz.. He's called him "ugly" and a "gorilla."

      They were going to fight - and then didn't. :wank:


      I could never find myself attracted to such filth.

      That's WWE.. Vince McMahon type of garbage..

        I enjoy both really, the problem is that some fans get on the defensive dont know why, I really hate Joe Rogan though.

          1. ali called frazier ugly and a gorrilla.
          2. they were going to fight, and then tito didnt show up for the weigh in.
          3. floyd spews more filth in one interview than the entire roster of the UFC.

            1) Dana White is supposed to be a goddamn executive. Ali was a fighter - and a tounge-in-cheek type enigmatic, one of a kind character, who could get away with things virtually no other human being could get away with, verbally and/or otherwise.

            2) I know what the **** happened.. All parties involved in a "let's fight" scenario - whether or not it's in the media on the world stage, or between two losers on the internet - look like ****ing morons if it doesn't go down.

            3) Who gives a mother**** about what Floyd Mayweather says, and what does it have to do with this?

              1. granted.
              2. i dont see ur point with #2...
              3. you scorn the UFC for all the "nonsense" they spew when mayweather is the king of nonsense and filth, and yet the UFC is the one who draws your ire.

                I agree, Mayweather is the king of verbal nonsense.


                The UFC draws my ire because it aims to weaken, and ultimately destroy the sport of Boxing. Dana White is muckraking controversy to put dollars in his pocket. My beef is more so with Dana White and the other mouth-pieces - than the athletes involved in the UFC organization.

                I like several of them as people.

                I'm not a very big fan of the sport.. It's not my thing.

                But I would have nothing to say if Dana White could keep to himself on the subject of UFC vs. Boxing.

                I'm merely responding to it, and responding to your question of why we cannot get along.

                The UFC side started the beef. They want funk.


                They'll get it - from supporters of Boxing like myself..

                  Dude your number 3 is an opinion. Plus if you have bastards in your face with a camera almost 24/7 then eventually **** is gonna come out. That's just the way it is. No one in the UFC gets as much interviews as PBF. Reporters and camera crews can get annoying and eventually people say whatever. Shooting the **** or just rambling...

                  We can say this...he doesn't make racist remarks or even sexist remarks...it's really just trash talking...Mayorga and Vargas was more insulting to ODLH than PBF was...Floyd was dissin Oscar....Mayorga and Vargas was dissin the whole familiy....

                    They can get along because
                    boxers are jealous that UFC fighters are more popular then they are, and they know that to be a UFC fighter only take like 5% talent.. so they mad because a bunch of nobudys became famous out of just beating eachothers asses but boxers train WHOLE life and got more talent in there pinky thne UFC guys but yet they still are not popular

                      I hate JOE ROGAN. UFC is sweet, Boxing is better, more of a civil sport. I hate maywheteher, I wish he would go into a UFC ring and get owned.
