Since When Did UFC Get So Big?

[Thoth]

MMA getting more attention has the potential to actually help Boxing. Sooner or later the powers that be in the realm of Boxing are going to have to look at what's going on. I'd venture to say there are specific reasons for this Sport's growth and some of them have to do with the dismal state of Boxing. It's the nature of the beast. Boxing will have to adapt b/c I don't see a reversal of the UFC's marketing campaigns and the overall quality of the product. We can ***** and moan about which is better but as far as the PRODUCT goes, MMA is a better sell at this point.

Yeah, the boxing marketing crew would have to create more promos like the HBO De La Hoya vs Mayweather campaign.

Then, the actual matches have to live up to the hype, including the undercards.

MMA just picked up the momentum and is growing like a snowball.

There Are Alot Of Mma Shows But The Reason Why Ufc Got Popular Because It Was Shown Here In Usa. If U Can See Some Mma Shows Are Taken In A Different Country. Before Mma Fights Are Illegal But Since White People Are Looking For A Sport That They Can Take Back Since White People Are Being Erased In Sports Now Adays They Want To To Have A New Sport Where They Can Compete. The Reason Why It Is Popular Right Now Is Because It Is A White Sport And Most Of The Fighters Are White. But Let Me Tell U Since It Is Getting Popular Right Now Different Races From All Over The World Wants To Be In Ufc Too. So 3 Years From Now It Wouldnt Be That Popular Anymore Because Most Of The People Who Will Be Champions In Ufc Arent White. It Would Probably Be Brazilians, Blacks, Asians And Mexicans.
