Dana White is a douche bag, but he puts on good cards so I'll give him credit for that.
Boxing IMO is still over MMA as far as mainstream following. If you look at the big PPV cards or HBO cards, look at the celebs that attend. Guys like Billy Crystal, Denzel Washington, ****in David Spade (yea...David Spade), & Michael J Fox are all admitted boxing fans. I'm pretty sure they get comped tickets from Oscar or whoever is promoting, but the fact is they all attend and love the sport (especially Billy Crystal).
Like I've said before, both MMA & Boxing can co-exist. There's no point to battle between the 2.
