I'll never be a boxing loyalist. The dudes on here who want McGregor to pay for insulting the sport are weird as frick.
At the same time, I respect UFC, but I'll never be some big time UFC fan either. That community is even more out of the mainstream.
But while there are a ton of casual boxing fans who will pony up 100 bucks to watch a fight like tonight, I don't think there is the equivalent for MMA/UFC. Big time boxing matches are major nationwide events that go beyond whether you're a real boxing fan or not.
