If Boxing was run like UFC?

[Streeter]

In terms of for most part the best fighting g the best and true 5 fight cards with 5 actual good fights.

Boxing cards are all focused on main and they might have names on undercard sometimes but usually squash fights . And boxers fight alot of "gimme" fights . Unless your a huge name your fighting killers everytime out past a certain point of success.

If Boxing was run like the UFC would Boxing once again be combat sports king and UFC Be niche like it was a while back?

Boxing is so fucked up for so long it cant even be thought of on the same terms of the UFC whatsoever hahahah. Just trying to imagine it hurts my brains.

 

[HHJ]

I think its ok to have both.

Fighters who make good money can just start promoting their own fights or two promotions can come together to put an event together. In that case there is more flexibility than UFC has.

Boxing is closer to A level.. it needs to be run more like the WNBA

Turki Al-Sheikh has been doing a great job with boxing. He’s making the fights that need to happen! He will change boxing for the better!



His Excellency is excellency looking to buy out Matchroom, Top Rank, PBC, Golden Boy & Queensberry

Turki is very interested in all of them and he is a pissed fan of those 4 boxing organizations that is preventing fights to happen. Lucky for Turki he has a crown prince who will spend money for his vice.

Boxers fight people at there level as they work up the food chain. Do you not understand the UFC is the top tier of MMA? They fight the same type of fights before they get into the UFC.

Due to Riyadh paying out the ass to get these deals done and being okay with losing hundreds of millions of dollars in the process, people suddenly think boxing has been run correctly for the last three decades and the best has actually fought the best. Hilarious.

Without Turki's involvement, Usyk/Fury and Bivol/Biev never take place. Crawford/Spence took half a decade to make happen and until the last few years, Terence has been content to fight lesser thans to protect his record. Boxing is rife with fighters refusing to fight one another, or fighters who cherry pick opposition moving up weight classes to collect belts, and pad their historical standing. Don't get me started on commission and judging corruption.

I love boxing but it's riddled with problems. It's fixation with undefeated records is as much a hindrance as scorecards, bad judges and cherry picking.

UFC runs boxing

Dana has wanted too do boxing but he can't.

Boxing doesn't allow the top people to roid unlike the UFC.

No one knows how much they make or lose. This is just stuff MMA fanboys say to make themselves feel better. UFC tickets aren't cheap, but boxing tickets are at least 4 times as much and they sell out.

I paid around $500 to sit about 50 feet from the cage to see Brock vs Cain. Those ticket now are around 2K. Those same tickets for high level boxing are closer to 10K.

Fury/Ngannou cost at least $50 million.

How much are Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou getting paid for Saturday’s heavyweight crossover bout

Two heavyweights are set to clash as WBC champion Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) takes on previous UFC titleholder Francis Ngannou (17-3, 12 KOs in MMA) in

It tanked on PPV:

Report: Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou PPV numbers extremely low

Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou put on a big fight in Saudi Arabia, but it seems nobody actually saw it.

bloodyelbow.com

I'm not sure how I'm trying to make myself feel better. There's a reason why these are on midday or in the morning - Turki doesn't care if it makes a single penny. I'm not speaking about gate, but overall cost to hold the event and pay the fighters in comparison to overall income.

If this was any other promoter, they'd be shitting themselves. Look at Hearn who now charges $230 a year for DAZN plus PPV. Insanity.

Maybe the Computer guy should use Google. Just a thought. What are you gonna hit me with next, 'cope'? Lol

Canelo tested positive and the guy got off because he said he ate contaminated meat. Garcia just tested positive. Fury tested positive in 2015. Luis Nery who was banned in Japan tested positive and they let him come back so Inoue could knock his ass out. Might want to do some research in regards to boxing.

No they don’t. Boxers box 20-30 cans before fighting anyone decent. Boxers pad the shit out of their record

Those “cans” are less “cans” than your average UFC fighter headlining cards with 15 total fights while discovering the sport super late man.

Not even close. Boxers box 0-1, 1-9 record truck drivers for the first 20 bouts.

PPV numbers are USA and Canada. Boxing is a lot more popular outside the US. As you said it was mid day from when it aired. Plus no one knows real PPV numbers. It is a guess.

You mean when they first start they are fighting other guys that are either new or not that good? You think your first title is a title shot?

Are you not aware MMA guys do the same thing? They fight local fights against other inexperienced people.
