Hummm ??

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, I gather.

That's cool.

 

[LouisBolanos]

Luke Thomas has gotten really fat

 

[mmaknight]

It will still be miniscule compared to the powerhouse that is the UFC.

More ducking in this post than when McGregor vacated MMA instead of fighting Tony.

there won't be any other top org other than than than the UFC.

Suffered a little stroke there, Jonesi?

 

[Maori]

Jones and oscar have a live for the coca, match made in heaven

Too many promotions, not enough name fighters.

Oh c'mon now. We're talking about full cards and bringing the best from the top org in the sport. How much $$ do you think that is?

You've been following MMA long enough you should understand the point here. MMA prospects are getting paid peanuts and furthermore, not allowed their own sponsorship, not to mention all the other stupid crap like fight kits. The Conors and Brawks are not going to last forever and developing talent could start in another org like GB and do better financially on their way up, building themselves and that org. Think about all the things 99% of the fighters complain about being wrong with UFCs pay, ranking, and title systems and you can easily see the time is good for a startup like this.
One would have to be pretty dense to think a promotion is going to start by paying the very top guys when they could grab 20x as many top 10 yet lower paid fighters and build the org there. Also, obviously, why would a person think they are starting by building full cards when they could simply start adding a few MMA fights to boxing card. The ring/cage swapout really wouldn't be such a big deal in a venue that was setup right for it.

Not enough name fighters? Why do you think that is? Think about it.

^^ This, so unless Oscar is ready to gamble his fortune away, there is no way in hell he'll pull top fighters from the UFC or even Bellator to get this off the ground. My guess is quick buck$$ from ol' school old fighters (who i love) to have a few fights, which has been done before. Just my opinion, but until someone can put up money similar to the NFL there won't be any other top org other than than than the UFC. (even tho the pay still isn't there yet for what it should be)

money similar to the NFL? ufc guys are way cheaper. and de la hoya could just pick up talent from elsewhere, smaller events. but not sure what he wants to do. I hope it's to create a new promotion, but eh

 

[CerebralKnievel]

Yay........ let's have MMA devolve into a sport where the best only fight the best after many many years and bullshit negotiations first ...... n tbey mean while fight only fights tbey know they win in between. We should welcome Oscar to mma as this is what we really want right?

Idiots hate Dana ...... yeah he is a pos as,a person but...... Dana is tbe reason we get the fights we get..

It is pretty hilarious how many people on these forums seem to desire a fractured MMA landscape. Not surprising, since half of the morons here don't even seem to actually watch MMA (based on their pathetic understanding of any of it).

 

[boxingskills]

Ask Golden Boy fighter Saul Canelo Alvarez where the money is at ??

[Tuf_guy]

So it appears that boxing promoter and part time cosplay enthusiast Oscar De La Hoya is considering starting a MMA promotion in addition to his successful boxing promotion.

And who is he in talks with to jump on in this endeavor ? Oh, just Charles " The Ice Man " Liddell !!

Zuffa Boxing ?? CHECK MATE DANE'R !!



THOUGHTS ??

Hope it doesn't wind up like Affliction MMA


So I suppose one step of avoiding that would be not signing Josh Barnett

Looks like he just KO'd Rober Whittaker.

who the fuckin is Charles Liddell?

Pretty sure he's friends with this guy

 

[mjfan23]

Panic Wrestling Conrad don't want it with Canelo...

.

No doubt. But canelo also wont pass a drug test or have the same judges he did against GGG.

 

[Workaholic]

Dana signing Mikey Garcia and Oscar is signing washed up, no chin Chuck

Point: Goofapotamus

 

[dembones22]

He would pass a drug test and he wont need judges as McGreggor is not GGG and he would knock Mcgergor out cold inside of 6 rounds. Plus he beats GGG even more decisively in the rematch in September.

Except the same thing is happening in MMA, so your illogical comment was invalid.
