      So true.

      That sounds like a great idea but it won't happened. Greedy bastards.

          All you are so ****en ******
          Its wishful thinking
          Fact of the matter is that UFC chumps are willing to fight for peanuts
          the top UFC fighter makes only about $1mill maybe $2 per fight
          hte top boxer makes far beyond that. The reason the cards arent stacked is because they would have to charge like $200 to watch it on PPV.
          I would love to see a great stacked card but boxers get paid more plain and simple. Do your research man I aint doing it for you. Gully you know this Bruv you are one of the better posters on here come on man

            Everything your saying it right son...

            I just agreed with him that Boxing needs to look at the Undercard situation and start giving us the fans real treats for undercard fights then we dont mind paying the $$ then....

                I've posted about this before and this **** has been been beaten to death.

                A main org would not be able to keep the fighters under contract like the UFC does and that main org would eventually break up to what boxing is now, it's going to happen to the ufc sooner or later and they will end up just like boxing.

                People are getting caught up into thinking the UFC is the way to go, I already posted earlier what the boxing PPV cards would look like if they were on a monthly basis like the UFC and didn't have SHO or HBO backing them up.

                January

                Lopez vs Medina-PPV

                The best in boxing will fight the best, it just takes HBO and SHO to put preasure on them and tell them they won't put the fighters on their network for big money unless the fights are quality.
