    I like seeing whats happening in the flyweight and superflyweight division now. There have been good fights made recently involving the Kameda's, Cazares, Wonjonkam and Naito that have captured the public's eye.

      This is very true.

      Though, I'd say Latin America as a whole not just Mexico, but they do produce a lot of fighters at lower weights.

      In Asia, it's pretty much Philippines, Thailand, and as you said, Japan.

        That would be a amazing PPV if top rank made that, but knowing them they will make each fight its seprate PPV
        I guess it's economics. If those are PPV worthy, then bundling them would reign in less money than individually getting 400k buys each. Not yet counting the fact that boxing purses are bigger than MMA purses. Maybe if the purses were smaller they can bundle up quality matchups in one PPV.
