Even Friday Fight Nights are getting better. This years been great for boxing, an UFC is gettin worse an worse, Im a fan but im bored of it already, its over saturated. the bubbles burst. if promoters keep puting on stacked cards then boxing can only grow stronger :good
2007 has been full of GREAT matchups for the most part and we are only half way thru. Only downside is IMO, since PBF and Oscar did so well almost every other fight has been on PPV. It seems even if big cards are on free HBO or showtime there is still a PPV or two on the same weekend (last weekend we had the Duddy fight, RJJ fight, Mijares, all on the same day as the HBO triple header. WTF is one to do?
Actually I think that the steroids abuse will kill MMA for good. The lightweight champ Sherk has just been busted. It's ovious that EACH AND EVERYONE is taking steroids in MMA. It's pure freakshow! No serious TV-station in Europe will ever televise that crap, when it's stuffed with roids. 25 percent of all MMA-fighters were caught with drugs in the blood last year by the California Athletic State Commision. And they have just started sanctioning the game and taking drug tests.
no, he probably wont be in here. If the title said MMA sucks and boxing is back on its feet he'd be in here in a flash though.
it has been good. Although the heavyweights arent great, the division is getting better. There are some decent guys up there and some exciting fights can be made. We've also got some pretty good up and comers. Povetkin, Solis, Witherspoon, and bunch of others I'm leaving out.
I agree that boxing will MOST DEFINITELY come back around. I have a few friends that watch MMA and I have already turned them to boxing by showing them how it is truly "the sweet science" and how amazing it is to watch a graceful boxer on the top of his game in the ring vs the some of the trailer-park **** you see in MMA. Boxing will always be around - end of discussion
Boxing has been doing great for a while now in my opinion, last year had great fights so did this year. Boxing isn't all about the Heavyweight division you know, WAY too many great fights in the lower divisions. About the UFC, I don't really know anything about them nor do I care but best of luck to them.
