        Interesting theory because the World Cup draws large numbers here and nobody thinks the US will ever win the World Cup. If millions of people tune in doesn't that constitute "interest"?

        Also a lot of the largest UFC PPVs in this country were not headlined by Americans.

                Ok, so which countries are you talking about?

                You know, the countries where "the heavyweight division is the glamour division and will always be the division who draws the most attention of all the divisions." ?

                    In every country in the world when you talk about boxing, people are most interested in the heavyweight divison.

                    It has the most iconic fighters and history. People who have never watched a boxing match knows the names of Ali, Foreman & Tyson.
