UFC putting on pre- lims to steal from Boxing

That would be heaven.

 

Lets not exaggerate, the UFC never puts on cards of that magnitude and most of those fights would be on regular HBO instead of PPV which is better for the sport.

UFC undercards are better then boxing PPVs undercards in general, but the gap is really not that big, its just that the UFC markets their cards much better. The Mayweather-Marquez has a better undercard then the average UFC PPV.

 

How do you know a undercard from a mainevent? They all got the same record 9-5 or some **** like that.

 

Amen. That said, why can't a guy watch both?

 

What your missing is the point that I mentioned about star power. It may not be the magnitude when you just look at the names...but if you compare where the fighters in those PPVs are in their respective sports, then you will see that they actually DO. Boxing is still the bigger, more recognizable sport...and so are their fighters. This doesnt mean that they dont put together their p4p best against each other...because as a fan of both sports, Id hate to break it to you...but they do.

This is what is killing boxing...as I said, UFC is just run better.

 

McAllister are you dana white in disguise?

 

That's what happens when you throw fighters who beat other fighters in with "the best"...shitty records.

Boxing's success has much to do with build-ups and proper upbringing.

As much as we hate to wait for these fights to happen, it would kill the magnitude of most of those fights if they were to occur frequently.

But I do think contenders and prospects need to square off more frequently in these tourney like styles.

 

Both those shows had 3 main event caliber fights, the above boxing card has six.

UFC 100 was their all time marquee event and UFC 92 was their annual big end of the year show. Credit to them for putting on huge cards, its also a lot easier when one promoter controls all those fighters, pays them peanuts (both those shows did over 1 million PPV buys) and acts as its own sanctioning body.

 

That's utter bull**** though. One guy is considered the best because he beat another guy easily and ****, whilst that guy was only hot because he beat a tomato smashing KO wrecking machine.

UFC is ****in' bull**** man. There's no way to establish who's the best fighter when fights end in these lucky ass one-punch KO's.

Wrestling exhibitions would prove it...but if they did that as opposed to brawl then the sport would suck serious dick.

 

I dont think anyone on this site is going to make the argument that MMA is somehow a better sport than boxing (go to sherdog for that argument LOL)...but what I and many others will argue is that its run better from the top.

Think about it. They just announced that Lesner will fight Carwin. Wanna bet that there are at least 2 more big fights pitting top fighters against each other on that card?

I absolutely love boxing. I like MMA. But I absolutely love the way MMA is marketted and put together. I dont even like how boxing is.

 

Rolling around on the ground for 5 minutes is a great fight? Hell I'd rather watch the Klits jab a fighter to death, then watch Brock Lesnar sit on a guy for a half hour and punch his head in.

ROy JOnes, Hopkins, Mayweather didnt fight cans to get their records. In the UFC its like journeymen going at it every night.
