    Jon jones would beat the living **** out of prime B-hop in a street fight... Lets say hypothetically Jon was in the same prison hops was in... Bernard would be washing Jon's draws and making his bed... Everyone knows this!! :hat

    All real sports are in the olympics. Your excessive emotionally mixed trolling exposes your insecurity, no surprise you're an MMGay fan.

    I'd hazard a guess that nothing in UFC has ever been remotely close to being as big a story as Marquez KTFO Pacquiao

    You just exposed yourself with the GIF you posted! ***... I bet you wouldn't say a word to Silva or Henderson... They would slap you like the little ***** you are... They would put you in your place Cindy!

    Well...a UFC event reminds me of the ambiance you see in a WWE event like someone said earlier on. This is the side of the show that I don't like but this said...we have to give them credit for one thing: They are making the fights that the fans wanna see happen. I prefer the sport of boxing but at least in the UFC, the fight happens inside the octogon, not outside (I'm talking about the boxing promoters here that overprotects their fighters and that are milking every single pennie they can on them by ducking many boxers that could beat them.)

    A lot of people seem to forget that top boxers make way way more money. To have 4 or 5 top fighters on a card isn't financially possible. That being said Boxing Ppv's still sell more PPV's overall

    It's a good point that the UFC gears itself to a particular, core audience of young guys with shaved heads and Ed Hardy shirts.

    However, they've been able to take that audience and parlay it into a place in the mainstream. As a result, the casual fight fan, under the age of 35 in the US, is now a UFC fan and not a boxing fan. He might not identify with the guy who has a 30 tattoos and drinks a case of energy drinks per day. However, he wants to watch 5 or 6 shows a year. UFC is what's on Sports Center. UFC is what other casual fans know and talk about. UFC is where the stars fight each other and the judges aren't dirty. UFC is where, even if he doesn't know who the guys on the undercard are, the fights seem to matter and the arena isn't 80% empty.
