    Starting at 1852 ending in 31 december 2011.
    These stats aren't accurate pre 40/50s but it seems boxing is getting strong again.

    UfC has shown to be very boring and it can't evolve.

    Great! People only say 'boxing is dead' 1. because the talent is not as strong (this is kinda true) 2. because they would want to have a post-mayweather vs pacquiao discussion moan as they were so fixated on making this fight happen.

    UFC is good

    it can be a blood bath, might see a broken arm, guarenteed atleast one KO in a big event. watching the way the best do there **** is good, jon jones seems to be there star right now.

    but still it aint got **** on boxing.

    When people say boxing is dead, most of the time it just means the hw division is boring. :D

    UFC has proven to be a huge fail, Fox gave them a contract worth 80 million a year and the fights get below average ratings, the only problems with boxing is you need money to be a fan because you need HBO and Showtime and Maybe Wealth TV just to keep up. Plus Pay per views.
