You know, as much as I love boxing and appreciate the big fights, boxing just doesn't put on a show like the ufc does. 3 BIG fights in one night.

Dana = asshole but he knows what the fans want to see...
Forresst did develop a huge amount, but I still feel it's a good thing he's an ex champ now.

Rampage exorcised a lot of demons with that KO. Wanderlai, as you alluded to is now out of contention.

UFC will always be secondary for me, but they do put on a show. A UFC ppv is guaranteed better value than a boxing ppv.

I think Dana, with his crappy wages, keeps his fighters very hungry for the title fights. Where as in boxing the mid tier guys are geting huge pay days, either to fight nobodies or just lose their edgeiness.


Felt sorry for Noguera, he looked old.
Agreed, but Dana pays average guys better than average boxers get paid. I was rooting for Forrest. There's nothing to dislike about Rashad, but I don't really like him either. Forrest is one that I actually like. I like the average joe that overachieves better than the talented underperformer. Not that Rashad fits that mold, just don't really care for him either way.

Rashad has improved tons also and I am very impressed with his career. Noguria did look old. I was hoping for a little more out of Rampage and Silva, but can't complain much about a knockout like that.
