thought it was interesting in our boxing vs ufc debate!

Then you should post it in one of those threads. . .  no need to start another one. . .

 

I don't think a UFC fight could keep me as interested as De La Hoya and Mayweather last night.

 

To me, Boxing is to UFC what baseball is to a sport where you get 1 player to stand in the infield and outfield that can tackle anyone trying to make a play on the ball. Sure, the latter is more entertaining, but there isn't nearly as much sportsmanship involved. I've always regarded UFC as raw and full of hacks, more fitting for the high school bullies instead of the guys who exhibited athletic ability on the playing fields.

 

Mayweather is a better athlete than any UFC guys. UFC guys more resemble bears or other wild beasts.

Why would I go into a sport paying hundreds of thousands when I'm in a sport paying $20 million?" Mayweather said.
