Beanflicker, You're comparing the UFC with American boxing whilst completely ignoring that boxing is a hugely successful global sport that shows no sign of declining due to the UFC.

I can't see any evidence that boxing's popularity has faded in America due to the UFC either.

AS for the UFC 170 girls fight beating Canelo-Angulo? What was the PPV price for both and what did the gate gross? I read the UFC NEVER reveal official figures for any event?
