    I don't follow MMA but have seen quite a few fights over the past couple of years. And seen just as many boring fights as exciting ones.

    If you make competitive 50/50 matches you will get top quality fights. That must surely be the same for both.

    Hearn's "prizefighter" was a good idea (although the second one was SHIT compared to the first) but it will never replace genuine championship boxing bouts, will it? When is the last time Barry had a top fighter?

    I find most MMA matches dull, especially when it comes to the ground game. I can appreciate the skill and athleticism, but watching two guys roll around on the ground isn't my taste.

    The thing is pro boxing has some phenomenal matches that happen, but more often then not they go under the radar. I do agree that protected fighters are an issue with boxing, but it is without a doubt going to affect the MMA industry more and more in the future as sponsorship increases.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
