Bob Arum on the UFC overtaking Boxing

[The Infamous]

break it down for us breh

Boxing is easily the bigger sport world-wide. There's no denying that. And I don't see MMA over-taking them at all. It's just that a bunch of posters in this thread talking out their ass in regards to MMA.

Breh on the back end of this fight Floyd and Haymon could clear close to half of a billion dollars.

that's probably every ufc event put together and then some

Since Robert Guerrero got his Floyd stimulus package bailout he's been averaging over $1 million per fight, these MMA heads don't even know who the Ghost is but he's out here making more than the biggest UFC draws

the biggest draws, like silva and st pierre, they probably got over a mill a fight. great for mma but still peanut shells. not even peanuts.

GSP made 4-5 million a fight. Anderson probably makes 2-3 million a fight. The rest of the roster (other than the likes of Jones and Rousey) make peanuts.

You may be hopeful but there's just no rational reason for a boxer to choose MMA, only reason would be if they have a wrestling background as well and aren't going to do much as a boxer.

The first documented boxing match happened 300+ years ago, the purses adjusted for inflation would probably still be more than what UFC guys get

youre right, absolutely no reason to join. fukking dana's bytchass ruined all the momentum they had going for them by taking away their endorsements. He's just ruining this great sport
maybe in 50 years ill get to see the mma i always wanted. I would love to see a boxer who could withstand a takedown, knocking people out

'Mostly rolling around on the mats'

Talking about how boxing is blowing the UFC out the water with TV ratings.

UFC struggling to get average ratings.

Fights filled with dry humping.

Nobody cares about Ronda Rousey.

Posters talking about the UFC/MMA in NY when it's banned there.

Rousey getting KO'd by a regular dude.

Naming 4-5 Canadian boxers and say that they make more the UFC's biggest earners.

Anderson making 5-8 million in career earnings with the UFC.

I could keep going.

By all means keep going.

She only went at them for supporting a black man, Beadle won't say shyt about mma because there's no brotha for her to vent her hatred towards.

Imagine a prelim fighter making 10k to show, training alongside St Pierre. I would be mad as fukk

Almost half the male UFC champions are black or part-black. The next UFC ppv has 2 black fighters fighting each other for the LHW title. A title that was stripped from another prominent black fighter (Jon Jones).

I would use that as motivation to train harder and work my way up. But I see what you're saying breh
