Boxing haters, hate on this.

[ectomorph28]

it is boxing fans that hate on mma because they think that there sport is going to get over ran .. You will never here mma fighter talk about boxing they all ways give it respect its jerkoffs like floyd and lou dibella that talk about mma ...for the record boxing was my first love but now its mma..mma is just way more exciting ,i watched 3 good mma fights in a row while 2 nobodys held each other in boxing last saturday both fights were on were i was at ... If and when floyd fights manny .. After that boxing is done there are no more big fights after that .. Iam shure people are going to type back this fight and that fight but the bottom line is even if there are good fights out there whitch there probaly is ,they either wont happen ,and if they do they wont draw the type of money floyd does ....boxing r.i.p

They have been saying boxing was dying for 100 years. Something tells me its not, because its always, ALWAYS generated stars.

2.5 years ago, DLH/Mayweather was the LAST BIG FIGHT, well since than there have been 5 super fights worldwide and MASSIVE fights overseas.

Boxing is far more popular than MMA worldwide. Thats the bottom line, and it will always be that way.

no it wont. I do agree that RIGHT NOW, boxing could still be more popular around the globe than MMA (not sure in the states, I think in the states MMA is more popular right now), but there is no doubt that MMA kicks boxing's ass in the 15-35 demographic, that means that boxing fans are the old guys, that means that in 20 years, most of the boxing fan base will be dead... Also, the guys into the 5-15 (now) demographic will also grow as MMA fans, MMA is the future, that's a fact as much as getting old is a fact.
