BOXING is DEAD! UFC killed it....

[MikeBrew328]

boxing is dead... but the top fighters get paid just as much as the the stars in other sports.... lol

Mayweather could get like, 15 million bucks for one fight against DLH. when was the last time a guy made that kind of money in one night? lol

That's true but what about the up and comers? Mayweather used to fight on FREE TV, HBO is not FREE TV. All of the PPV Stars today you could've seen for free back in the day. And that's why they have a lot of fans today. Now, what about the up and comers coming up who can't fight on a network like CBS to build a fanbase? Nobody wants to fight guys like Chad Dawson because of money, Dawson really isn't known. Evn Kelly Pavlik isn't really that big of a superstar outside of Yougnstown. What will happen when all of the current stars retire? Hard to say.

Everywhere I go I see these white boys with there tap out shirts and talking about how they can ground and pound an wrestle a guy....i never seen fight sports so popular i was one of the few watching BOXING and older ufc....but it seems UFC crushed boxing becuase all these wanna be tough frat boys now walking around in the mall talking about it...

and the ratings prove it...

I like mma and boxing but BOXING is dead....

Its all the greedy promoters faults....they are dumb they could of made more money showing free fights 2 times a month on a regular station like ABC, NBC, CBS etc....but they want that quick fix from a ppv.

its lame.

this thread = FAIL

Boxing was dead LONG before UFC came on the scene...and you can blame the cowardly "just here to pick up my paycheck and eke out a win" boxers and "just dont give a f***" promoters for that!

lol "Wannabe".

3oz gloves end of story.

sports science prove be it 3oz or 12oz is weakens the punch the same, MMA fighters just dont have decent chins, that why they go 2 the ground

Or some of them really have elite ground ability.

Going to ground has nothing to do with chins.

[TheSurgeonMDMPH]

i love boxing but there is more competetive bouts in mma. i watch both. there is also no career management by fighters in mma. that is whats killing boxing.

[Enayze]

if the money ever goes to mma from boxing.. african americans will dominate that too

Correction, Eastern Europeans will dominate, like they already do.

the more i get into boxing in the last couple years the more and more i hate the UFC. i watch it and can still enjoy it from time to time. but boxing is better in so many levels . . .
