        Why can't the two sports co-exist, they both are exciting with their own merits. Obviously I favor the sweet science, but still...

          This cracks me up.


          What difference does any fighter's salary, in any sport make in your life ?


          The answer is none.


          It doesn't matter if they make $1 or $10,000,000


          Don't feel any type of accomplishment for what these guys are making. It makes no sense.


          Boxers and promoters taking all of the profit, and not investing any of it back into the sport is one of the reasons why the younger generation is flocking to MMA.

            True. But with all this stuff about MMA growing and boxing shrinking I just wanna set things straight.

                neither do I but all we get told is that MMA is taking over. I just think it's rubbish.

                Again who would fight a prime Mike Tyson in MMA? No-one!

                  didnt you read the first post? the ts wants some boxers to fight in mma. do you think people like pac, floyd, who makes $15m per fight will compete in the ufc where the highest pay is about 500k? if youre a boxer would you make that move? i mean would you rather get paid $500k when you can get paid $5m? and yeah, a fighters salary wont make a difference in my life so as to your life. i dont know how you came up with that childish idea
