    UFC needs to stop interfering with traditional Boxing PPV weekends.

    Juneteenth, Cinco de Mayo, and Mex independence weekend have ALWAYS been reserved for BOXING fans. Take this weekend for instance, Canelo and Berlenga pulled 750k buys, It would have easily been 1 Million Plus if Dana White didn't put his greasy little hands in the pot.

    What are you talking about? If anything, boxing fans need UFC to give our preferred sport more competition. It may be the only way we get the fights we desperately want. Boxing promoters need a fire under their a.sses, otherwise we’ll continue to get s.hit cards like Canelo-Berlanga.

        Well Canelo/Berlanga completely destroyed the ufc this past weekend.

        I don't know what the ufc was thinking putting a complete unknown Georgian and krysisstan fighters in the two main fights. Lol

          And the UFC event didn’t even feature a Mexican or Mexican/American at the top of the card.

          The whole event was centered around it taking place in the Vegas Sphere.

          Stay in your lane Dana.

              Oh I get it, you live in this fantasy land where Dana White and Boxing promoters are going to sit around campfires singing Kumbaya songs. NEWSFLASH buddy,, their goal is to take over popular fight weekends like Juneteenth and Cinco de Mayo. And in case you haven't noticed, Canelo is way past prime. He goes to war with the John Ryder, Mungia, Berlenga types. That's his ceiling right now anything above that level he loses, he's never fighting Banavidez or anyone at 175. The guy's balding for fawk sake LMAO...

                Sounds like boxing needs to step it's game up if it wants to stay on top.

                    That's like saying there shouldn't be boxing on Saturdays in the fall, because it's reserved for college football.

                    Reserved according to who?

                    It's not reserved. UFC should put on the best events they can, so should boxing. So should all sports.

                    The fans will vote with their dollars.
