It be a blow but boxing wouldn't be dead. Boxing is practiced outside of North America.
The only absolute way boxing would get defeated by MMA

Boxing and MMA can both benefit from the hispanic community. Last night there were alot of hispanics watching UFC because of Cain Velasquez. Alot of hispanics love fighting sports whether it is the boxing ring or in the cage.Comment

Well, with Velasquez being UFC Heavyweight Champion and Bellator tournaments being shown on ESPN's Spanish channel Deportes, it sounds like a Hispanic influence has already happened to some extent.Attack the hispanic market.simple.
To all those who are hispanics,congratulations.We are responsible for being the worlds #1 boxing ppv buyers in the world.
Now,what would happen if mma got a complete overhaul of genuine hispanic fighters? Id pay for a Puerto rico/Mexican rivalry in the octogan.World wide spanish broadcasters? Hispanic beer sponsorships and promos? Weekly hispanic channel mma highlights?
All these factors come into play,and in my opinion i beleive thats the only way they would ever conquer boxing with ppvs,not that it would drive boxing off the map.If they can take control of the hispanic market and not forget the principle of mixing in other ethnics in fights then it might be a done deal.Comment
