I believe UFC and Dana White will buy out PBC from Haymon and create own belt

Bunch of chinny fighters getting their glass shattered. You'll never see such "excitement" in boxing because there aren't many chinny fighters at the top level. UFC is basically like if every boxer had Amir Khan's chin and Margarito's defense. Of course there's going to be "exciting" KOs and finished but there is little skill involved.Comment

There is a big difference between Haymon and White. Haymon gets top dollar for his boxers while White runs a dictatorship and bosses his fighters around and pays them very little. He runs the UFC completely and it's his way or the highway. That won't work at all with boxers who are used to being well pay, calling their own shots and keeping most of the money they make. Haymon's fighters rarely fight the best. Sometimes they do but often they don't. Do Wilder and Danny Garcia fight the best every time they fight? I don't think so. White isn't going to take over boxing and make the best fight the best for peanuts like he does in his UFC monopoly. That just isn't going to happen. Boxers are too used to making good money and calling their own shots. They won't stand for being bossed around and paid much less the way White does his UFC fighters.Comment

GTFO with that nonsense. I would double leg and smash any boxer if they wanted to get into an mma match (haven't wrestled since college but I still do mat work and newaza weekly).Comment

Also those UFC bums would get beaten easily by elite wrestlers or elite judokas so it's a ******ed point. Their wrestling sucks, their jiu jitsu sucks, their judo sucks. They don't have any elite skills anywhere, it's just a bunch of former high school wrestlers with club fighter level boxing swinging at each other until they land on those pathetic fragile mandibles.
It's a pseudo-sport and trash entertainment. They fight in a cage FFS, let that sink in. A ****ing cage. It's against basic human dignity and self-respect to be willingly put in a cage.Comment

He didn't do anything for Ronda Rousey. Dana White didn't even want women fighting in the UFC. He only picked Ronda when she already had a lot of hype behind her in Strikeforce. They didn't really do anything special to promote her, they just gave her a platform and all the American soccer moms and feminists followed her. Ronda was more of a creation of American media than the UFC.
Conor McGregor pretty much created himself too.
Before Conor and Ronda the UFC had zero stars in 2014. Just like they don't have any new stars right now.
The reason why UFC is popular is because they sold the fans the notion that those are the best fighters in the world fighting each other. He wouldn't be able to sell that in boxing if he staged some in-house PBC tournaments with fake belts when you would have Joshua, Canelo, Loma etc. fighting elsewhere.Comment
