UFC was good when it first came out 1-3, then they started making all of these rules, no joint manipulation? cmon

The fighters are their best (only?) asset.

What does it benefit the UFC to permanently damage their main (sole?) asset?

It takes 12 months to rehab a ligament tear. Cartilage damage is permanent. On a certain (fundamental) level it makes sense to protect the fighters so you can get them back in the ring a few months later.

Get it?

De La Hoya could do for boxing what Dana White has done for the UFC.

I'm not a UFC fan at all but I respect how they always have the best fighting the best.

I want to hear Oscar announce that he will fight Winky. WW has been calling Oscar out FOR YEARS!!

[juancho]

Yeah I think he would lose too.

But Oscar won't fight him.

Oscar is at the end of his career anyways he should just fight Cotto at 147 and then Hatton, then he should retire.

I hope he helps eliminate the sanctioning bodies and ****** alphabet soup belts.

damn...

Well, it's like Teddy Brenner said. "If Ring Magazine is the Bible of Boxing, then it needs a new testament."

[Feint]

I like Oscar a lot, and maybe he believes he is telling the truth when he says he will have no editorial control over the magazine's content. But the fact is this is a conflict of interest and the writers will naturally be swayed by who is in control of the magazine.

yeah i'm with you on that bro. As much of a nice guy as oscar is, ring should totally remain independent of any fighters finances.
