Dana White 103......Mayweather is fighting "what's his name?"

[Dan...]

Funny how you guys are getting all mad and hurt at him spitting the truth. Dana White is on point....though I think its bull**** on him being a big boxing fan.

Haha. Its kind of funny how you will just jump on board with anyone who shares any of your views on any fighter.

what the *** is this moron gonna say on sept 20th when he realizes that JMM/PBF did DOUBLE the ppv of UFC 103?

Casual fans aren't buying UFC cards for the fighters, but rather because of the BRAND. UFC has done an incredible job of marketing UFC as an entity, rather than market their fighters individually for the sole reason that their fighters will come and go, but a BRAND will last longer. They're marketing the BRAND as exciting and worth the money which is something boxing can't do.

The other smart things that UFC has done is to basically become the sports franchise of Las Vegas. They are consistently pumping out PPV's. You train the consumer. Wanna see our product? THIS is what it costs. And we won't be replaying it for free next week.

Boxing can't do it because there's no coordinated effort. Boxing has competing promoters who work against each other, thereby working against the sport.

For example, when you have Freddie Roach, a respected trainer and Bob Arum, a big promoter, telling the boxing public not to buy the Mayweather fight, how does that benefit THE SPORT? Hell, it doesn't even benefit their own fighter. Wouldn't you want a big, popular, well-regarded opponent?

The other thing that MMA does well is to have reasonable weight classes. none of this every 4,5,6 pounds bull****. Just have a few classes. That way, the best guys can't hide from each other. They can do that because there are not a bajillion sanctioning bodies each collecting fees from eleventy billion weight classes.

the funny thing is he trys to say that boxing over charges for cards when the ufc is the same exact price 50 dollars

but better investment.

$50 for 5-7 fights is a deal.

You pay for 2-4 in boxing.

Thing is most MMA fights only last 2mins or so lol

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

Here is the bull**** though:

Tell me who's fighting on that MMA card? What is the main event? Forrest Griffin? Seriously...I don't know.

How many of you can tell me who's fighting....WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP.

The whole card or the PPV card?

Whats funny is that when you have so much competition for particular service or product, the consumer normally benefits from cheaper costs at a higher quality, you get more **** for your buck. Yet, with all the promoters and people involved in boxing, it doesn't happen.

[Sin City]

the only reason Mayweather has MMA in his mouth is because he is replying back to **** that Dana White has said.. It's Dana White who constently has boxing in his mouth.
I think Dana is more threatened by Boxing then the other way around.
