Do you think it's a coincidence that the last year boxing beat the UFC in PPV buys was the same year Floyd retired? Now that Money May is back and Manny has suddently gotten more popular based on his wins against fighters Floyd softened up for him, it's a wrap for MMA's time at the top.
Everybody knows that boxing is an art and MMA is a bunch of beer drinkers who don't know how to throw a punch. The problem is we had the wrong guys (Miguel Cotto, Pee-pee mouth Marquez, Joe Calzaghe, etc) carrying the torch for the sport. The numbers have shown that the public isnt interested in them and that gave the UFC room for a boost in popularity.
Now that Floyd is back, that's not gonna last. There's nobody in the sport of boxing or MMA who's a household name like Money Mayweather. Consider today a landmark for the sport of boxing because it's short reign as the 2nd place combat sport just ended.
