Randy Couture attempting to lure Hatton into MMA?

[HattonTheHammer]

UFC/MMA is for frat boys who watch WWF wrestling, kung fu movies and can tell you the entire lyrics to simpsons Mr Plow song.

Boxing is so far ahead due to its history and fanbase it would take at least a lifetime for mixed martial arts to possibly catch up.

It may pull in huge crowds stateside, the odd sold out arena when it comes over to the UK for those that love all things american. But ultimately its success and failures will adhere to the fact it doesnt appeal to the working man like the sport of boxing has and always will.

Plus the fact it just looks really REALLLY gay!!

Geez, thats a bold statement. Would love to see the reaction ya would get if that was posted on the ufc.com forum

TBF mate thats a fairly shortsighted view you have on the sport, lets not forget its still a growing sport. I dont think for one minute it will surpass boxing , but it certainly has its own market.

As for Ricky going to MMA, carnt see that happening any time soon
