    I must say, MMA fighters in the UFC, most have a number of losses, but Dana White does remove some fighters if they're not very competitive anymore.

    I prefer boxing, always will, but I do admire that the UFC match the guys and women tough, not many easy pickings as in boxing.

    In boxing you'll have a few big fights in a year, and you can count that on one hand. Then there's all these other really bad mismatches throughout the year.

    Boxing wasn't always this bad, but I do give credit that at least we had a few 'undisputed' title fights lately.

        He is 34, so he has about 10 years left as a heavy, lol.

          Tough dude for sure, but maybe it's time for the 34 year old to retire from high impact sports.

              I'll believe that when McGregor stops being hand fed title shots when he hasn't won a meaningful fight since Aldo. Dropping a woman-beater that the NFL won't touch with a 10 foot pole isn't exactly worth commending.

                    If dud it younger would think had some type of chance though his technique overall look rudimentary. With enough nfl nba players 6'5-6'9 with hella reach and crazy athletism if they did boxing younger therr would be a legit american heavyweight champ. But the $ all to good tool good sit on the bench make 600k a yr or more yet few boxing does such have to be champ level or former champ for such
