      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.
      Wheres competition things self-regulate. The problem is both the UFC and Boxing will try to get each other out of business. As long as they fail that we should be ok.

        Good call Dap. UFC got jack **** on boxing and boxing ain't goin nowhere. But in the spirit of comp, boxing promoters will likely start steppin their game up.

            so true. boxing fans seem to focus so much on ppv numbers when in reality, the numbers don't effect the entertainment value for the fans. If anything, the decline in ppv buys will force boxing to put more quality fights in the undercards which can only be good for the fans.

            so yeah, you make an excellent point about the UFC being good for boxing. competition is always good.
