    Boxing fans should be happy about Dana White and UfC

    Up until now boxings big wigs have had a total monopoly on the sport. Making ****ty matches and gouging boxing fans because there was nothing to stop them from doing so.

    Now they got some stiff competition in the UFC.

    Its not my cup of tea, but at least it will force GBP and Top Rank and the rest of em' to really stack there PPV cards in order to compete.

    *** ppv numbers, we the boxing fans don't get any of that anyway, this is good for us because it will give us more robust cards.

    More **** for our buck.

      Its apples and oranges mate, MMA is not going to affect boxing and vise versa, mma should stick to its intense rivalry with pro wrestling

          I general yes. But there is some crossover fans.

          So for instance when cards are held on the same night, boxing will have to stack more good fights on the undercards.

            I think it's good too, most fans make the transition from WWE to UFC then from UFC to Boxing.

                  This is indeed true. A few years ago the match ups were far and too few. Now they're everywhere.
