      They are literally riding on boxing's coat tails. I wanted to avoid saying it in the op but anywhere boxing has success MMA follows.

      And I don't think we actually know how successful they've been.The promoter seemed hesitant to drop out a real number ratings wise. Just like Dana White when he first went to Brazil telling us he got 39 million viewers, when in fact it was closer to 12 million. Expect any promotion in India to inflate the hell out of the ratings.

        Would love to see more asians enter the sport. We need all the talent we can get, and I think there's some great boxers out there, just waiting for the World to see them

          Cant wait for the Olympics, hope Ireland bring back at least 4 medals in boxing and Joe Ward is able to enter the Olympics as a wildcard, even if he was hard done by with that loss to the hometown fighter. He could light up the pros with his talent to.
