    It'll be the end soon. Im sure De la isn't interested in an extra 700 tickets being sold at his boxing events that affliction brings to the table.

    if gb can lure the mma audience to buy their ppvs then its worth it, especially if they can get away with paying the chump change ufc does.

    going to an mma event is like going to a Linkin Park concert.

    going to a boxing event is like going to a Neil Young concert.

    Boxing needs the fans that mma has and I'd guess there will be a lot more than 700/10000. Probably closer to half. I suppose if they did the mma first, you'd see when the place cleaned out when boxing began.

    SURELY, they'd B SMART Enough to have an MMA Match FOLLOWING a Boxing Match & Vice Versa...

    There's NO WAY they'll EXHAUST All of the MMA Bouts THEN Switch to Boxing...
