    There's always another side to a story.
    Lesnar brought in the WWE ppv crowd.

    Vitali Gomez did 11 million households in 60 countries. Not even a major fight and it owns every UFC show in history.

        views of course, that would be insane for buys. Everyone knows boxing holds the buys record with DLH Mayweather.

          Lesnar vs Mir did 600k PPV buys, you must be thinking Couture vs Lesnar which did 900k not 1mil+.

          Regardless Pac vs Hatton will do more then UFC 100.

            As gay as UFC is, they put better card according to their public.

            Bopxing needs to put better undercards for sure.

            By the way UFC doesnt **** against boxing. They just overhype their numbers, to make it seems like they are surpassing boxing, but thats not the case

              In Germany, The Vitali/Gomez fight was viewed in 55% of all TV owned houses.

              Over 1 in 2 people watched the fight, for a mandatory defence.

              UFC don't touch that **** right there.

                  ANOTHER of these threads?

                  This so so ******. UFC will have all the attention that night just like DLH/Pac and Hatton/Pac will on their nights too.

                  No need to compete and make some people make a choice when you can have a day all by yourself.

                  That's not being afraid, it's common sense.

                    It's too difficult for boxing to put together cards like that. UFC is like a dictatorship in a way meaning all UFC fighters are under UFC's control, so it's easy for Dana White to put together great cards because the fighters have no say in it. Obviously boxing doesn't work that way and each fighter can fight when they want, who they want and demand however much $$$ they want.

                      UFC is just regional trash, boxing owns it in all numbers.

                      UFC is completely PPV based that's the only reason their PPV's on average do slightly better than crappy boxing PPV's.

                      But if you add up all the money that boxing makes TOTAL as a whole world wide from all fight cards (PPV OR NOT) Boxing owns UFC by ten fold.

                      UFC can't even sell out shows anymore and is actually declining. Their highest live gate is like 4 million, boxing's highest is 20 mil. LOL...MMA is weak sauce.
