Is their really a superstar in boxing now? Even Canelo isn't as big as Conor. Boxers get paid is more though thats the only plus for them.

Canelo, Fury and Joshua are superstars imo. They're probably the next 3 biggest stars in combat sports after Conor. Obviously Pac is still around too but he doesnt draw like he used to. Wilder doesnt really draw outside of the Fury fights but a lot of people know of the guy.

I think the starpower in boxing now is a bit like that period in the 00s where Floyd and Pac hadnt blown up as mainstream stars yet while a lot of the well known 90s star were either retiring or just werent all that relevant anymore. De La Hoya was pretty much the only guy who was really moving the needle on PPV.

UFC has been doing big fights since May.

Jorge was ranked #4 in the division. Usman had already beaten #3 in his previous fight and was booked to fight #2 on that show before it fell through like a week before. So no, that isnt record padding, record padding is fighting guys like Tom Schwarz and Steve Rolls. Or being WBC champion for over 3 years and on your 7th defence before you fight an actual top guy in the division, Wilder style.


Just think of the **** we all tolerate in boxing. Its basically the norm to have to wait 3+ years to see the biggest fights get made. **** is ****ing ridiculous.



Lol @ people still thinking **** like this in 2020. I thought MMA had blown the lid off this kinda stuff by now. You know...given that its a sport thats evolved based around what worked and didnt work in style vs style fights with very little in the way of rules to inhibit any of those styles.

Which one is it hes either number 4 in the division
Or hes nowhere near at that skill level haha

Hes a hypejob and will continue to lose
Another conor really

I find it bizarre people constantly have to pit MMA against Boxing, there's plenty of space for both the sports. But what I love the most, is ***** ass " fans" like yourself, I bet you've never even laced a glove up you clown, talking like you are the last defender of boxing, boxing doesn't need your ***** ass to defend it. You've probably done 2 or 3 boxing cardio classes and now consider yourself a boxer, you utter melt.

I didnt pit boxing against UFC I said I dont watch it and boxing is a much higher level of fighting

Last defender of boxing wtf

And about melt go suck ya mum ya wombat

I said he was nowhere near a p4p most skilled guy in the sport, which is what I thought you were implying.

boxing is a much higher level of fighting

No, its a much higher level of BOXING.

As much as I find the guy boring you do realise AJ ppvs do much higher

AJ-vs parker is an example and that was a shlt fight

Regarding Fury-Wilder 2 it's still being talked about and I doubt very much anybody but UFC die hard will be talking about Usman or Masvidal

Only thing I have implied is I have no interest in UFC and their fighters are inferior to professional boxers

A successful night of UFC ppv just means that...it was a successful night

Been here with Rousey Conor and now Masvidal as I dont think many bought it for Usman and after seeing reports they wont be in the future

And boxing will continue to dominate as a sport


As I said
UFC is the lil sister

Inferior as boxers not as fighters. To quote the great Joe Rogan boxing is the art of punching, MMA is the art of fighting.
