Dana White: UFC Is Now Bigger Than Boxing & WWE Combined

[Check]

I could careless and will never be converted. Boxing isn't going anywhere and I am a lifetime fan. I'm in my mid 20's, I'm not about to chase something just because it's popular. To me, UFC is nothing because I know nothing about it and all that matters to me is what I think.

[Monte Fisto]

UFC will NEVER be bigger then Boxing.

It already is !! bars in metro-areas will usually carry MMA fights. Boxing fans are lucky if y 2 bars in these areas will even bother showing a PAC or Wifebeater fight.

MMA already has moved in China. China hasn't caught the MMA bug yet, but, predictors are showing it's gonna be huge in the near future. What is boxing doing ?

Another example is the Philippines, a country with a long boxing history, and currently is home to the world's P4P best, we would think that boxing would reign supreme over there . Think again, yes, boxing has had a revival over there, but MMA is the more popular sport.

PAC is popular, but, the sport itself, the general consensus is folks would rather watch a random UF* fight than a random boxing match.

Man, the last few UFC PPVs have been *BORING AS F*&^*

And Dana is a real doche. I mean, watch the Ultimate Fighter. Dana knows nothing about having a hard life but he talks to those fighters about having guts and being *******.

Another thing is boxing promoters might be bad, but Dana is an A**hole when it comes to money.

The Big Names in UFC don't make sh*& compared to other name athletes. Given the revenues, they could be sharing more money, but they refuse to. That's why so many of the fighters sell out to anyone and everyone to advertise with.

[Stromprophet]

400k + bonus + % in ppv-revenue.

Equals millions. Not Pacquiao money, but 1million+, and potentially more if the ppv is a big seller.

Him and Brock makes about 1-3 million per fight excluding sponsors.

That is not true. Dana is infamous for being a greedy biatch.

And ok, GSP is the top UFC fighter. Why on earth is he only making 400k for a fight if UFC is doing such huge business?

Brock doesn't make much, Dana boned him hard with his initial deal. Even though he is a huge draw. That guy is worse than Don King about money. He gets fights done, but he ****s the s*&^ out of fighters on money.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the UFC splinter in coming years. The sport pretty big and fighters are still not being paid all that much.

[niteshift]

The NFL sells out stadiums across seas once a year to. Does that mean anyone over there seriously cares all that much about it? Does it mean its more popular then soccer?

Than you goddamn idiot, THAN! To answer your question for the rest of these bozos: No, American football will never be bigger than soccer in Europe. Euro sports fans simply don't give a **** about fat lards dressed in pads hitting each other. The constant stop and go is annoying and will never be over-looked. Yes, you were posing a satirical question, and my answer to this question is quite obvious for people who aren't idiots, but that wont stop some dumb**** from arguing otherwise.

Why don't you MMA fans bring the boxing community on board? Instead of fighting with insecure boxing fans (solely boxing fans), just tell them that African Americans compete and are in fact quite successful in the sport. That will make everyone happy.

A few years ago, anti-mma bozos were arguing (mimicking Floyd Mayweather Jr.) that only white trailer trash competed in the sport, who were unskilled, beer guzzling tough men - and fans of this sport were white rednecks.

C'mon dawgs, git wit it. Or in other words.....

Click, click click click, click, click, click click cl-cl-click, click Click, click click click, click, click, click click cl-cl-click, click Click, click click click, click, click, click click cl-cl-click, click!

Real talk!

I call bull****..

I live in the Philippines and I gotta tell you, boxing trounces MMA here. You are pretty aware of Pac's status in here but I also have to add that 2 major networks are covering boxing well over here. Even Top Rank has an exclusive deal with network giant in this country. Boxing has regular coverage and Metro Manila has alot of boxing gyms.
