McGregor Aldo will change that. UFC 187 would have as well but Jones had to be a tard and Khabib is an AKA guy so of course he got hurt.

MMA's ratings are already declining and PPV sales keep going downhill. That sport will NEVER overtake boxing.
Its PPV numbers have declined a bit but they just had the best quarter in the history of the UFC. The sport is growing like crazy worldwide. Not only will it overtake boxing but in 10-20 years it will be bigger than soccer. They haven't even gotten started in India and China yet and fighting is a sport that will be popular in every country in the world. You know nothing.

I think he's joking about Dana White actually saying that a few years ago.

This guy was the biggest comic on the planet at one time.
I think MMA has peaked. Its main problem is that it's like WWE in the sense that it just gets to be the same guys fighting over and over and there are too many events.

Not enough salt in the world for that guy.
14 second Rousey match > May-Pac

Possibility? It's already overtaken boxing. That joke of an event last night was the final dagger for boxing, who was already hanging by a thread.

When asked if UFC could overtake #boxing, Arum said "Their most popular fighter is a woman"
"Woman are stupid" Oh what a burn! Man those shows them that MMA is not better than boxing. He should've said, "Their best fighter is a woman, and boxing's best beats women... literally!!!"

You ever notice how when anyone from boxing is questioned regarding MMA in any capacity the response is always negative and belittling?
It's because MMA guys always bash boxing about how it's "dead" yet the PPV numbers consistently show that boxing draws greater numbers than MMA.
Boxing PPV sales having been rising and UFC PPV sales have been declining.

Cotto-Canelo will draw 1.5-1.8 PPV buys in the fall.
No Mayweather. No Pacquiao. No big media hype.
Can't wait to hear the MMA guys try to come up with another "boxing is dead" explanation.

Can't see how MMA hasn't already overtaken boxing...Boxing sucks compared to MMA.
Too many of the fights end within a few seconds. That's the real problem.
The fact that Rousey is more famous than the male fighters? Meaningless. A badass woman who cleans up nicely is going to be popular.
