        Yes, and you're obviously an UNDERCOVER ******. Your inability to understand what's going on is just plain pathetic. HOW HARD IS IT TO UNDERSTAND SUPERIOR POSITION GENERALLY EQUALS MORE OPTIONS TO DO HEAVIER DAMAGE FROM? Is that so hard to understand? This isn't freakin rocket science here.

        And about the underwear thing, again, another instance where your brain being connected to your spinal cord does not mean you know anything about the subject. PBF and Hatton were wearing about the same amount of clothes as almost every UFC fighter on that card. It's not like anyone was wearing thongs or anything like that. And personally, I don't check out guys, but maybe you do since you pay so much attention to what the fighters' are wearing.

        God you're an idiot.

        LEAVE.

          Mayweather and Hatton are big names, even to the causal UFC fan.

            Well, I'll be. If the girls from across the table couldn't stop laughing, then the fights must have not been good. Let's all not think for ourselves and let the girls from across the table be the deciding point for what's a good fight or not.

            Dude, get real. What was the point of bring up the reaction of those girls? Seriously.

              In terms of viewership, yes, it's quite obvious that Undefeated murdered UFN. But then again, that's to be expected. UFNs have consistently done mediocre at best.

              And as far as entertaining comes, both were very entertaining. It depends on what you find as more to your liking personally. Though, the battle between JROC and War Machine was crazy when JROC was going psycho all three rounds with elbows on the bottom; or the clinic of pain Guida put on Huerta for 2 rounds straight looking like a man possessed. It all depends, but the UFN was certainly not lacking in the skills department or even the reversal of fortunes in the fights.

                So you're done with MMA because of the incredible atmosphere at the Hatton Mayweather fight? Are you going to watch other 99.9% of boxing matches that won't live up to atmosphere on Saturday night?

                    I love MMA and boxing both. I don't understand why people can't have respect for both sports.

                    When someone says "oh they are just dry humping on the floor" it makes me laugh. Wrestling and Jiu Jitsu takes a long time to master, it takes decades to earn a black belt in many cases and thats just one small aspect of Mixed Martial Arts.

                    You have guys who are going on 30 years old and have been training BJJ for 20 years yet are still not even masters. You have Olympic athletes who have earned gold medals, much like boxing and have been in sports and competing since almost birth.

                    The Ultimate Fighter finale was far better then the Hatton vs Floyd card. Simply because the under card on Undefeated ****** horribly, while almost every single fight on the TUF finale was a good matchup that showed tons of skills.

                    I wouldn't be surprised if TUF finale had more viewers simply because it was on a free TV but there is no doubt that the night belonged to Hatton Vs Mayweather in terms of interest.

                    The ultimate fighter series is not that good, and to even compare it to literally one of the most hyped fights in boxing in many years is kind of ******.

                    Mixed Martial Arts is a new sport and there is FAR more to the sport then the UFC. The fighters on TUF are generally on beginners, like watching a boxing fight against guys who have 1-0 pro records.

                    Just because you are posting on "boxingscene" doesn't give you a right to bash another sport. Both boxers and MMA fighters are talented athletes who deserve the respect of everyone."

                      Boxing and UFC really aren't the same kind of genre. I look at it as one is about an honest, clean fight, and the other is about gratuitous dog-fighting on par with whatever Michael Vick is about.
