Schaffer is the reason UFC never surpassed Boxing.

I'm sure UFC sucking ass had to do with it lol

I agree.

LOL Richard aint do nothing that wasnt already being done, Mayweather Oscar would always sell, Mayweather Canelo would have sold the same if both were toprank lol.

get your head out the sand

Another dk riding thread picking sides, women and their emotions smh

[Fr3$h]

People wanting to watch boxing is the reason for boxing

Schaefer is just some guy who got a cut of the $, with another million guys in line behind him

This "backstage soap opera" stuff and the sudden rise of "shaefmos" and "osctards" is extremely gay

[Bigg Rigg]

UFC was never gonna surpass boxing. And Im abig time UFC and MMA fan. boxing is just too great. Even with the corrupt sanctioning bodies, bs robberies and decisions, ducks, cherry picks, etc. boxing still survives and thrives!!!!

I honestly believe that MMA is more popular than boxing in most circles. Comparing boxing PPV numbers to MMA is impossible because the middle aged crowd watches boxing and they pay for the stuff. The average young guy is used to getting all media for free and will hunt down every MMA fight on some internet streaming service/ also isn't as obsessed with seeing something "live". If you look at news coverage MMA gets much more than boxing barring a Mayweather, or Pacuiao outing. MMA merchandising is bigger, and the stars are generally better known unless your comparing them to boxing's few superstars. Half the people I talked to on the street about Mayweather v. Maidana couldn't name Maidana but knew Floyd had a fight. I bet you more people know who Roy Nelson is and he is a middling fighter in a weak division.
Not coming from a place of hate. I love MMA and Boxing but am predominantly a boxing fan.

There are truly NO superstars in MMA/UFC. Besides Jon Jones and Ronda Rousey, none of them guys are superstars.

Schaefer will land on his feet. He always does.

this^^^^^^^^^^^^

I agree with Zags on some points....the Banker also got that Swift-Lucas fight made....so he also catered to the hardcore heads!!

I don't know where you get all these ****** posters.
"Schaefer is the reason UFC never surpassed boxing."
What did he do? You mean he provided all the fights fans want to see?

This sample table doesn't show anything that proves this clown's claim.
