    both sports have their pro's and cons and both sports have their problems... the UFC needs to work with other organizations instead of trying to stop them... boxing needs to ignore the crooked ABC title's and rankings and go with the ring rankings or some other format...

        They both can be very exciting and they both can be boring. In my opinion boxing is better because there is no boring wrestling match (unless u see fights with guys like Ruiz.

          i like boxing waaay more then the UFC. but the UFC has done a tremendous job in gaining fans and promoting their sport. when boxing gets into "serious" trouble, it can be fixed in a couple of years. im sick of hearing about this

              Pride is the Formula 1 of MMA whereas UFC is the NASCAR of MMA.



              I like PFC over UFC anyday.

                Pride versus UFC? Who gives a ****. It's the same thing, both are great. Boxing deserves to lose it's fans to both because of the bull**** surrounding the sport, the lack of good fights, crooked promoters and lack of one sanctioning body. I love boxing but if there are not changes, it will be marginalized to the point of obscurity in 5 or 10 years.

                  Pride= Boxing= K-1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>UFC


                  UFC is a **** sport with no ****ing talent.

                  The only reason it's popular because majority of the fighters are white. And this is coming from a white guy. Do you see the UFC fans. Bunch of frat boy type loosers. And thats the only reason they watch it "UFC ROCKS DUUUUDE!!!".....

                  Boxing has no white america in it. What is it? Latinos, Euros and African Americans, Africans.

                  UFC a bunch of tatood talentles trailer trash morons.

                  Useless sport.
