I don't ****ing think so. MMA is an ugly-ass sport where the pound-for-pound king leaps into a straight left in the first 10 seconds and gets put to sleep. Then the guy who puts him to sleep, the new king, gets beat by a guy running on 11 days notice
Elbows to the throat and head, flying kicks to nowhere, piss-poor boxing technique, poor balance......no thanks. As dreadfully run as boxing undoubtedly is, give me the aesthetic pleasures of two skilled boxers any day. Vargas-Ali was far FAR more interesting than the UFC card, which was only amusing for seeing that punk Conor getting beat and the overall unintentionally funny aspects of the whole thing. I honestly have no idea how people can derive much pleasure from MMA
A lack of quality is perceived as being "exciting", when in reality, everyone is beating each others ass because there is no-one within it who is a true craftsman with beautiful refined skills. Someone like Golovkin is more entertaining to watch than that whole damn sport combined.
I mean even with the PBC model that's trying to copy the UFC model, the fights aren't gettin made. In UFC you don't know who is going to win. The best are fighting the best in the sport. It's unpredictable. Boxing on the other hand, you know who is going to win. EVERYONE cherry picks. It's not even worth watching because you already know the outcome before the fight even takes place. And if a fight that is 50/50 gets made in boxing, you'll be waiting 5 years before that happens because they're letting it "marinate"
**** boxing. I'm starting to shy away and shift over to the UFC and i'm sure many others are as well.
Our only chance is if PBC succeeds and they make the best fight the best, but even that I doubt.Comment

Right now though, the UFC > Boxing. Everyone in boxing acts like they're mayweather and try to pull the A-side, B-side card. All the boxers are ****ing divas and cry over 1 ****ing lb. Hell, Frampton Quigg almost got called off over a ****ing dressing room. Think about it man.

Not necessarily. A lot people wanted to see GSP move up a weight class and fight Silva in a matchup of their top two P4P guys but GSP didn't want to move up. Also, Silva didn't want to move up to face Jones.
Their best typically fight each other until they reach the apex and are able to pick and choose.Comment

People regurgitate this cap and it goes to show they have no idea what they are talking about in regards to the UFC. There are protected fighters in the UFC. There are times the matchmaking gets really stale. The best don't always fight the best and sometimes even their best guys get beat by absolute tomato cans. UFC is definitely fun, but a lot of guys talking about it clearly have no idea wtf they are talking about.Comment

It seems almost miraculous how many once regular posters find UFC superior to boxing over this past year...Comment

Name the ufc version of danny vs Salka

Manny-bradley 3------- lmao, ufc wouldn't make Fitch-gps sequels or Tate-RHonda 3
Anyone that thinks mma scheduling is soft and fighters are protected is grasping at straws and sounds like a complete idiotComment

Boxing doesn't give me the best boxing fights
Mma gives me the best mma fights..
If boxing could deliver the best fights like mma does, then none of this would be debatedComment

MW titles held hostage by catchweight goons, that Mayweather-Berto sham, even a historical fight like Fury-Klitschko was hard to stay awake through.
I guess there's some fantasy that the public will become interested in 5'3" 100 lb Gonzolez but it's not gonna happen.
A couple free UFC "fight nights" about equaled last few months of boxing in total excitement.Last edited by ////; 03-07-2016, 09:07 PM.Comment
