    But he is not the one that reported McGregor/Khabib doing around 2.5M PPV buys.

    You can combine the first two Canelo vs GGG PPVs and they still don't reach 2.5M buys.
    I think those number are inflated.

      For the Americans here, are you concerned that kids will take up wrestling over boxing for the college degrees as well as a gateway into MMA?

        I might have been concerned years ago when it first started but it has faded over the years. Boxing made a big comeback.

          Wrestlers who want that money will find their way into boxing. Ask Kermit Cintron.

            Real fans don’t root for what sport is better they just want to see the best fights in any combat sport so does it matter ? MMA will put pressure on boxing to get the better fights out there so go ahead UFC do a number on it . Ha

              Thats an exception tbf. The pipeline from wrestling to MMA is much more logical and easy for the most part, because wrestling is the strongest base for building an elite MMA fighter.

                I didn’t say which route was the most likely. I said to ask Kermit Cintrón. He’s probably lonely these days and needs someone to talk to.

                  It won't. I wouldn't care if it did either. In my daily interactions only MMA fans seem to be obsessed with boxing, telling me why it is dying, dead, inferior, boring, etc. I don't care about MMA. I hope it succeeds for the sake of it but I'm not going to be watching.

                    There is no need to worry, as UFC fighters game has its own importance.

                      I love both so I don’t mind either way. Being a fan of UFC is awesome as I get to see great fights regularly. As I always say though a good boxing match trumps everything.
