I Thought Mma Was Taking Over

The Elite XC was a second hand MMA org at best.

The UFC is not going anywhere. It's one of the smartest run businesses and highest money making franchises in any sport today. Period. End of sentence. And :deal

That said - this rivalry between MMA/UFc and boxing is purely fictitious and is wholly a fabrication of boxing fans that feel threatened by the emergence of a new fighting sport.

I am a boxing fan as well as a fan of mixed martial arts. It is OK to enjoy both.

 

EliteXC was a poorly managed company that probably commited felonies in their last show, MMA as a whole, and the UFC in particuarly, are still "taking over"

Not actually taking over, because both sports will always exist, its just that MMA is becoming mainstream, and hitting the right demographics.

 

You really cant compare one company with 200 fighters to boxing who has thousands on top of thousands. Sure MMA isnt free very much but im ok with it I have no problem paying for a PPV that has 5 fights that im very much looking forward to instead of paying 10 dollars more usually to see one fight that winds up sucking most of the time.

 

In the US the UFC made more money than boxing ALL ON ITS OWN in 2006.

 

You act like MMA died with the folding of EliteXC/Pro Elite.

 

**** mma

 

All I Know Is Boxing Is Still Counting On All These Old Fighters That Were Contenders 10 Yrs Ago. One Of There Up Comers Got Whip Up To A 43 Yr Old This Weekend. Mma Is Were It Is At, Boxing Can't Compete Wit Mma!!jmo

 

That Was Ufc Free Event And Still Clowned The Paper View Event, Under Cards Were Horrible For The Boxing.

 

Negatory. WEC on Versus is always welcome in my home and the homes of many other MMA fans.

 

to me it seems if ya watch one ya'd watch the other one...,


ya think baseball fans were saying this kinda **** when football was comin into its own during the '50's?

come on guys there is room for both..,boxing has had a resugence lately with the best fighting the best..,

while UFC has had a slight drop with its a few of its big stars doppin off..,

no worries if 2 guys are fightin on the box im watchin what else the **** im gonna watch?richard dawson aint on the fued no more so **** it!
