[QUOTE="Rowdie, post: 183427, member: 272"] I think when people say boxing is dead they are talking about overall popularity. BTW without searching who is the HWT champ right now? It used to be everyone on the planet knew and watched boxing. It was the best show in town. Wrestlers knew that in a brawl, who would win, but people laughed at them. I remember when the UFC first came out. It was a tournament with now weight classes and very few rules. JuJitSu and wrestlers dominated, and still do. It truly has evolved and to be successful in MMA now, you better have some skills in all areas. But now MMA is by far the more popular sport. Boxing is dead in that people watch MMA much more than they do boxing. Shorter more action filled fights, and it's more like a real fight. Yeah, there are some big PPV and some huge paydays left for boxers, but not as many as there once was. [/QUOTE]
