Comments Thread For: Nick Diaz Backing Away From Jeff Lacy Showdown

[Barry Halls]

wow, way to try and skew your "proof" in your favor.

http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2011/3/15...boxing-and-mma heres a pretty good breakdown between boxing and mma payout structure. It actually is really close if you don't count for crazy outliers like Manny and Floyd.

To say mma-fighters receive welfare checks while supporting boxing as It's superior is silly.

[Mr. Invincible]

Northern California - Mixed Martial Arts Champion, Nick Diaz will continue pursuing his Mixed Martial Arts career instead of professional boxing as it has been deemed that it be in Nick's best interest to focus on his primary combat sport and profession.

That ignorant Diaz boy had more sense than I thought. Lacy would tear his head off. The most skilled mma fighter would get killed by an intermediate boxer in the squared circle.

[Easy-E]

Notice how the manager says that anyone who believes they were just posturing is wrong...and then says they don't want to fight right now...

kind of a crap story anyways, Lacy is terrible.

hahaha pathetic MMA ***** just like the rest of those cowards. he ran away

[Forza]

The payscale is very close if you don't factor in floyd, pac, ortiz,wlad, vitali, donaire, gamboa, martinez, froch, ward, kessler,bhop,pascal, marquez, khan, bradley


but yeah other than those guys, MMA champs getting paid 40k to win is really close to boxing!

[Die Antwoord]

yeah if you dont factor in the champions in boxing, and factor in the biggest names in MMA the pay scales are similar...what a joke way of skewing the numbers.

Wlad Klitschko could buy Strikeforce with the money he makes from the David Haye fight, he could buy the entire organization, rename is ***force and make those dry humpers fight under the appropriate name. Unfortunately investing in the fad that is MMA is a terrible investment.

This is why I hate Dana White and the UFC.................Slowly killing the sport of Mixed Martial Arts.....

Promoter: Diaz no longer set to box, White insists bout with GSP not set

ray mercer got beat by kimbo slice. a street fighter.

he did insta-KO Tim Sylvia, which i was really happy with, but lets be real. Beating Sylvia nowadays is like beating Roy Jones.

What he said.... Sylvia since his fight with Fedor became morbidly obesed...

he knew there would be no hugging on the floor once he gets tired..boxing is a men's sport stick to your hugging occupation nick
