It was. But Dana was hyping it up by boasting it would outsell Floyd/JMM.

In fairness grass growing should outsell Floyd fights but fortunately for boxing there are a lot of ******s who will pay to watch Floyd jog.

People forget that it was Dana White and Joe Rogan that started the Boxing vs MMA foolishness. Back in the early 2000's you could barely watch an MMA event without Rogan bashing boxing.

You already have a MMA vs. Boxing thread going on the first page. Was it really necessary to start another?

And how foolish and arrogant of Dana White to put up a crap card against one of the biggest fighters in boxing.
Thats why it got outsold 2-1.

What's the big deal though? lol why do you guys have such a hard on for Boxing doing better than MMA? If MMA isn't a threat whatsoever, why do you care what Dana White says?

It's hilarious because a lot of your guys' favorite Boxers are also MMA fans and vice versa. You're barking at trees truthfully.

So based on one event you compare entire industry?

Great job!

False.

The card was already established since May. It was the boxing event that moved to that date to take advantage of the Independence Day weekend.

MMA fan's excuses for losing their "head to head" battle against JMM vs Floyd,

They said for years boxing was dead, that MMA had taken over, so after years of trash talk they went up against the Floyd vs JMM PPV, and they lost horribly!

MMA fans claimed that they lost because they didn't have alot of big names in their card...LOL now who's fault is that?

Imagine if MMA and Boxing went head to head with their biggest names, MMA will lose even more horribly!!!!

Now Dana White after so many years of trash talking wants Boxing and MMA to coexist? HA HA HA HA HA!!!!

Dana White isn't the voice of MMA fans.

No one was expecting 103 to set any records. They were coming off a big summer and now was the time to replenish the rankings. The only thing expected from the card was fresh names to add to match ups. And while Franklin/Henderson wasn't a real compelling match up, it needed to be done.

No one and their momma in the MMA community was worried about JMM/Mayweather. The only one was is Dana White. All everyone was focused on was new compelling match ups.
