Boxing and MMA on the same card. Could this take off?

[Howlin Mad Missy]

they already do abroad.

In Amsterdam I saw, boxing, womens boxing, K-1, MT and MMA bouts all on the same night. The thing is if they didn't like boxing they went to the bar and came back for the fights they wanted to see (exactly the same as many uk boxing nights, most people only seem to want to watch their mate or the headline fight then sod off. There aren't that many who sit through the whole card).

Maybe but i hate MMA.

Uhh maybe.. a big MMA fan here and to be honest., I really want to see these MMA fighters improve their boxing skills. they're mediocre at their best boxing wise.

This is a neat idea.

But I say keep them seperate. Boxing is not in such dire straits that it needs to piggy back off of MMA events.

Each sport can stand on their own.
