    In this guys dreams boxing is over after mayweather vs pac, its funny listening to these MMA guys trying to hate on boxing ,also there commentators and interviewers , they just want boxing to die so bad i actually pity them. Boxing has been going for a lot of years and will continue to do so, UFC will never be able to compete with boxing so they have to try and discredit the sport

    The only thing about MMA I'm vocal about is my hatred of Dana White. **** that guy, he's a joke. Good at getting his business up, but I can't stand him

    that comment is over the top, but it brings up a good question. what fight will captivate the media after that fight? better yet, who will rise to legitimate superstar status after pacquiao and mayweather retire? adrien broner? if so, who's going to be his rival? he seems like a good future villain, but who will be the yin to his yang?

    I'm a big fan of both sports, but slightly more so to mma

    he brings up good questions

    first off, we don't even know if pac/may will even be made yet!

    next, this is often said a lot, but boxing these days fail to give us the fights we want, while mma/ufc delivers almost constantly

    we on here always express our anger over bad decisions in boxing and bull**** titles and other things

    i remember immediately after mayweather/de la hoya that the announcers said that it would be the fight to bring boxing back to major prominence, yet here we are 5 years later begging two of the sports main stars to get it on

    its not about putting together big fights, but doing it consistently, which wont happen

    will boxing be done after may/pac (if it happens)? no, but boxing needs to make a few changes in the future if it wishes to stay relevent
