    Why UFC Isn’t Hosting Exhibitions

    You would think “no-rules” fighting is better suited for guys with minimal training

    Instead they opt for boxing the most specialized form of unarmed combat

    Cause Dana wouldn’t allow UFC to diminish it’s brand like that. Nor could he pay the money that they want.

    Unfortunately boxing has no real governance and is easily exploited, therefore leading to an amass of these fraudulent contests.

        Dana White should have kept Strikeforce around as a separate brand. They could have put celebrity fights and exhibitions on there.

        That way they can cash in on freakshow fights without diminishing the UFC brand.

              Because wrestling is gay and all UFC exhibitions end up the ground. Who the **** wants to watch two lazy out of shape dudes hump each other? Sounds like the opening to a gay **** scene.

                Nobody cares, that's why. UFC doesn't build stars for a reason, because UFC is the star of the show.

                  Because MMA is an advanced form of combat for experts.

                  Boxing is for beginners. That's why all the celebs do it.

                    Really?

                    The fight I saw against Mike Jackson might as well have been an exhibition.
