    I'll be the first to admit I don't like Dana White. But he's right when he says Mayweather-JMM is no threat to their PPV #'s...cause it isn't.

    The UFC PPV will easily outsell Mayweather-JMM.

        Anyways.........Yea they both have some boring fights at times but also exciting. One thing though, MMA seems to have more exciting fights.

        If you hate grappling and wrestling then you should hate clinching too.
        Precisely who is a fan of clinching? No boxing fan likes clinching, but as it gets broken up quickly, boxing fans bare with it. I hate the grappling element of MMA as well, nearly as much as I hate it when MMA fighters just repeatedly hit their opponent's head off the canvas. Now don't get me wrong, I love brutal knockouts but they are still sporting. I feel uneasy about the floor pounding in MMA.

        That all said, Dana White spoke nothing but the truth in that video. Sad as it is.

            Clinching is a mutual thing that lasts 5 secs at the most, at least both boxers have equal chance to trade punches,

            who wants to see two sweaty men wrestling on the ground with each other in positions that resemble sexual activity?

            once an mma guy "mounts" his opponent and grounds and pounds, its over, the guy who is down has no chance to throw back..

              UFC will blow their load on 100.

              By Septeember 19th all of their big names(Lesnar, Silva, Jardine) will have fought already and Mayweather will win handily.

                There is rumor flying around that Chuck Liddell may return to fight Rich Franklin at 205. That fight could easily be a Main Event for September if Rich's contract is renegotiated by then.

                Liddell as much as he sucks right now, is a big name and with the numbers he pulls in will easily blow away any other PPV event

                  There are also other possible match-ups like

                  Hughes/Swick
                  Cain Valasquez/Shane Carwin

                      I take it that clinch only happens once in a boxing fight right?? There was more time spent on Hopkins doing 160 clinches in a fight than most MMA fights on the ground. Its ok, that's boxing. Lol Pendejo.
