mma is no threat to boxing


the mma scene right now is in a bad state

FEG is actually close to going out of business (they struck a deal with some chinese bank that is supposed to secure over 200 million in worldwide sponsorships/investments and the word on the street is if the bank doesnt come through FEG is done)

if strikeforce ended up unable to continue promoting fights on a national level and FEG went under the sport would be fucked

the UFC already pays fighters whatever it wants, but if there was literally nowhere else a fighter could make money...

there would be no reason for anyone to view mma as a good option (assuming they had potential to make money in any other sport)

hopefully FEG/strikeforce will be fine tho and none of this will even matter
