Al Bernstein On Boxing: MMA And Boxing? MP Need To Fight

[KananKrus]

Another excellent article from the Al Bernstein.

MMA has shown boxing that skill alone of combatants in this "contact" sport will be hard-up to keep its existence healthy and wildly popular, let alone be the blockbuster the sport of boxing aspires to be.

Courage, the pugilistic variety, plays a major role for keeping fans interested and willing to support the sport through their unwavering viewership.

Skill and courage if you have it then, pug, welcome... the world of boxing awaits you!

Great article Al,

Really looking forward to Donaire/Concepcion. I was dissapointed that Donaire didn't hit the gas on his career after his upset victory over
Darchinyan, but he is still young and Concepcion is a level of opponent
I expect for him.

As for MMA, I respect the athleticism and I'll watch it if it's on, but I have no desire to follow it like I do boxing. There is definately room for both in the marketplace.

Look forward to reading more, good luck at the Donaire/Concepcion fight.
