Usman vs Burns Good fight I guess. Both good and technical but as far as my excitement goes then zero. Both bland personalities. Zero charisma. Usman is kinda full of himself so will be going for Burns. I like that Burns took the fight quickly after the Woodley trumping. He seems hungry. Let's go burns but like I said zzzzz. This was gonna be Masdival's shot before masdi learned his worth. Volk vs Hollo Another snoozer. Both nice guys and zero build up again. Should be a fine technical battle going the same way as the original zzzz Yan vs Aldo This one I'm a tad excited for. Should be a war. Hopefully Yan pulls this one out and becomes some bad ass star. Yan by ko in 4 in a war. Rose vs Andrade Rose was schooling the Andrade before the slam but I dunno rose will probably be mentally unglued as she's fragile like that and the lesbo tank should come from behind and stop her again.
Pretty solid card (except the fifth one, which is a freakshow), but i i have absolutely no desire to see any of these matches
Of Course They Do... Many So-Called Boxing Fans MIGRATED to UFC Thinking it was "Different", Some PRAISING UFC's Business Model in Comparison to Boxing's... But @ the End of the Day, UFC GROSSLY Underpays its Fighters; Literally, They're the ONLY Mainstream American Sports Entity that DOESN'T Make its Earnings/Financials PUBLIC, Which is Obviously SHADY as Fuck... This is Why Conor McGregor (UFC's Biggest Name By Faaaaaaaaaaaaar, EVER) Wound Up in a Boxing Match and Why Most Mainstream UFC Fighters Would JUMP @ that Same Opportunity w/a Mainstream Boxer... UFC's 1 CLEAR Advantage Over Boxing is Fewer Titles, But that's Because UFC is MMA's Preeminent Organization, Whereas Boxing has Been SPLINTERED for Decades...But Rest Assured, Dana White has NOfuckingPROBLEM Creating "Interim" Titles, Manipulating Rankings and/or Granting Title Shots to "Name" Fighters, Which May or May Not be Warranted @ the Time... & REED Ain't Even Mad @ That...But he Recalls the Earlier Days When Disgruntled Boxing Fans Placed UFC on a Pedastal as Some Sort of PURE Combative Sports Option Devoid of Corruption and BS... NOT!!! REED
Also, seems like the "big fights" have a better chance of being made in UFC because to your point, boxing is splintered, not just in sanctioning bodies, but promoters as well. But I think this works to the fighters' advantage - more opportunities for them.
No Doubt About It... UFC Out-Promoted and/or PURCHASED Their Closest Competitors to the Point there Really Is NONE in MMA Anymore...Bellator is UFC's Closest "Rival", but their Roster Consists of UFC Burnouts, Re-Treads or Fighters That Could NEVER Cut it in UFC Anyways... It's Like Comparing the NFL to Arena Football or MLB to the Minor Leagues...MMA is New Enough to Allow for the Monopolization UFC's Created...No Chance of That Happening in Boxing Though... Dana White Competes Against HIMSELF, Whereas Boxing has Arum, Haymon, Hearn, Golden Boy, King (to a Lesser Degree), etc...And Not Surprisingly (To Your Point), Boxer's Reap Larger Purses On Average, than MMAists...
