    As more a boxing fan than a UFC fan, I would love for it to be the other way around. For example tonight there is a pretty good HW fight. I couldn't tell you any bar in my area that is going to show the fight.
    You can't really measure the popularity of a sport based on a bar crowd, but I see what your saying.

    Yeah it would be nice for boxing to get more exposure for sure.

      its actually ******. Its world championship boxing, not al haymon championship boxing. This idea is going to crash and burn

Fans get all in their feelings and want it to be about them SO BAD but in actuality, it has nothing to do with them. What are you going to do..."NOT WATCH A FREE NETWORK TV EVENT BECAUSE ALL THE FIGHTERS ARE FIGHTING FOR 1 BRAND"

        Casual Fans, the people who actually spend money on PPV and Buy Tickets instead of spending most of their time b1tching on the internet, they don't care about all this extra stuff that people on this forum care about. They will tune if the product is good and the best is fighting the best.

        So those on the outside looking in...TOO BAD! When they become a Free Agent either they Join or they stay on the outside looking in struggling to find a quality opponent and a good Payday! However I don't think it is going to be like that, I think Haymon will keep things open as far as matching up his fighters against fighters on the outside!
        So how is the best going to fight the best, when the al haymon clan will only fight inhouse?

            Im not sure what kind of a man Al Haymon is but with the right guy at the helm an idea like this is great, Boxing is a joke all u have to do is look at the long drawn out Mayweather and Pacquaio farce to see that! The UFC is run so much better, in fact everything about it is better than boxing EXCEPT what matters most the end product - the fight! (i am a MMA fan doe)
            This could be great

              Haymon has a direct role in May-Pac not happening so far and the UFC couldn't make their biggest superfights.

                Well ive always felt Bob was the main issue with Manny and May not getting it on (which they seem to finally be about to do!)
                I dunno about that man, im a fringe fan when it comes to MMA but they seem to take on all comers and there isnt half as much emphasis put on an "0"
                Dana seems to do a good job

                  LMAO, all the fighters are happy. You are seriously defending a sanctioning body? They are as corrupt as it gets in boxing. Basically hoes pulling tricks in every way to get a buck.

                  Not at all. If you read and understood me correctly you would can see that all I said was that the sanctioning bodies will have to unify which is something everyone has wanted in all history, one recognized world champion, which is better than having a wannabe champion which only fights in house fighters. If you followed my comments you would see that I'm all for fighters getting paid. After all they risk their lives every time they get in the ring.


                  Their rosters are wearing thin and will continue to do so.



                  Rocnation will be irrelevant in a year or two.
                  I don't think so because unlike Haymon, ROCNATION is showing interest in fighters of other countries which will keep genuine boxing alive. Plus ROCNATION is also paying their fighters top dollar to face legit fighters, not fixed fights but I guess your just another casual who is happy watching a parody of boxing and not the real thing.

                      wow, thats 90% of the creme de la creme. i dont see how it can possibly be "the best fighting the best" if these guys arent involved.
