    Where did you see this?


    comes from beating 2 time UFC champ and doing it quicker than the so called best, Fedor. Sylvia was a top challenger for Fedor in his fight previous to Mercer and it supposedly sealed Fedors position as the best but in reality he looks good because the level of competition is poor.

      im a fan of dana white and the UFC. but a bigger boxing fan and mayweather fan.

      but thought i would mention how, the last time UFC shared a ddate with mayweather. it was actually quite funny, i was watching dana whites video blog. and it shows how they sit up close n watch the fights from the monitors.

      the date of hatton - mayweather, the same day as a ufc event. i literally saw all their monitors had on the boxing ppv. and dana white, lorenzo, matt hughes, tons of people were crowded around the monitors not even watching the live ufc event.

      what does that tell u

          You're just proving my point, Carwin was on that card in a competitive fight and it didn't even sell 400k so you have no basis to your 600-700k prediction with that above card. And I highly doubt Liddell can do 800-950k after all those knockouts. I'd say around 650k.

            To many people jumping to conclusions, If people actually listened to what Dana said you would realize hes right.

              That even they know, boxing is the best and most exciting sport in the world. Pacquiao is knocking world class fighters out stiff with 4 more ounces on his gloves and Marquez-Diaz is a more exciting fight than and better than any fight mma has ever produced.

                that's goig to be a good card. i like ufc because it has a lot of exciting fights in one night, unlike boxing that has stinkers and sometimes the main fights stink too. i dont see why so many people hate it when it takes incredible skill to compete at their level and these guys are masters in a lot of different disciiplines.

                  Are you the same dude they used to call Chicanita? lol Anyway You only agreed with him because he said something good about De La Hoya.

                  I agreed that Mayweather is not a superstar.

                    Benn over and over this again. It's tiresome.

                    All I'm going to say isif you're going to cheer on Boxers in MMA, you would do much better cheering on some whose is Boxing's equivalent of Damian Maia. In that they use the strategics and rules to accommodate their style of fighting. They use the grappling and striking aspects to keep it about the hands.

                    Ray Mercer is not a man to put money on at all.

                    BTW, Fight Matrix has holes in their software. Keep with the Consensus Rankings.

                      white is not scared of floyd, but I would still watch floyd over the ufc card.
