    You just think that, because PRIDE was so huge in Japan in the late 90's, but boxing has been big in Asia. The #1 reason you don't see alot of the good Asian fighters in America is because they end up making more fighting in their backyard. American promoters don't offer enough $$$ to make it worth their while. And also the American promoters don't feel there's that big of a fanbase to build off of.

    Things are slowly changing though.

            Exactly... There are so many great fights in the lower divisions. That is crazy to say it is boring.

                No, I just don't really care for those weightclasses. Every now and then I watch some of those fights but I have a hard time taking them seriously because they are just so small. There are 12 year old kids who weigh more than these dudes.
