    How would y'all feel if Zuffa decides to get into the boxing business ?

    Many boxing fans already bash boxing promoters, especially TR and GBP.

    Eventhough many of you bash UF*/MMA just because y'all are boxing fans. You can't deny what Lorenzo Fertita has done for MMA, it's been a huge success and its popularity is increasing across the globe. Boxing on the other hand is on the decline in N.A and truth be told, it's tapping into other regions boxing has never had much success.

    So, how do you feel if a major player like Fertita decides to give Arum and Schaefer some competition ? Vote on the poll and discuss !!

    Fertita/Zuffa would pump some new ideas into boxing and kill off TR & GBP

    I wish there would be some kind of monopoly similar to that of UFC/mma.

    But zuffa? They would never enter this market, and they are not the right people for it.

          I'd be more worried and care if I was an MMA fan than a boxing fan. It would take him a long time to have an impact on boxing I believe but he could dilute his MMA business. I really don't see him ever entering the boxing business because of all the established promotions already out there.

              It's not right.... The talent pool is small in MMA, so it works, but your not going to be able to come into boxing and get all the boxers to join you. It would have to be top rank or GBP, and even then I wouldn't want a monopoly. It would be nice if they worked together though.

                The same way i'd feel if Don King got in to the mma business. Completely im-partial!It would just mean another shark in the fisnbowl making money off other less financially secure fighters blood,sweat and tears!
