    To give you a serious answer, there are some who would do ok and actually have some pro boxing experience, but ones who would get more people tuning in? none of them, that's like those people saying Kimbo Slice could save the heavyweight division :lol:

    there are plenty of low level entertaining boxers, small hall shows have mini-wars all the time

    I wouldn't say it's falling quite yet but it's definately peaked, I think even the "boxing is dead and MMA is taking over!" crowd are starting to realise that

    No really more people are tuning in. MMA has the young audience actually. Plus people still talk about MMA. Sorry, but besides Mayweather and the popular guys no one really cares about Boxing.

    In my opinion I think BOTH can COEXIST. It's no need for the two combat sports to have a huge war with each other.

    Neither of the four is considered a fighter with great boxing skills. Cigano and Nick Diaz would probably do well in boxing. If Cigano lands flush he`d destroy anybody.

    Jose Aldo is a good striker because of kicks without them his boxing is ****. His chin is stuck right out in the air and he was getting outstruck by Korean Zombie last fight.

    Would have liked to see a younger Mark Hunt in boxing. Iron chin (especially in his prime) and crazy power. A former K-1 Champ and has had a good career in MMA as well based solely on his striking.

    Frankie Edgar has pretty good boxing technique, and I think he would be one of the few guys that I could see doing reasonably well as a boxer.
