UFC is so much more interesting than boxing just based on the fact youve got different disciplines / styles going up against each other which boxing cant really match....dont give me valuev Vs Hayes...thats just size!  So theres a bit of thinking in there as well as sheer brutality.

And ive got to say while i think that Dana white is it?  Is a bit of a plonker, UFC markets itself in a really integrated effect manner

Yeah, I love watching men roll around the floor in tightie whities for 15 minutes as well.

so ...... Ali v Frazier
...........Hearns v Leonard
...........even Colin Jones v Kirkland Laing

no thinking, all brutality and similar styles?

where you might have a point is that currently, boxing (except for the excellent Manny) is pants.

Floyd will tear Manny a new face, that will be the fight of the decade. Boxing craps on the UFC from the stratosphere, though I do enjoy it from time to time some of the fights really do turn in to a gay-fest of men with there faces in each others crotches just rolling around, nothing entertaining about that side of the sport. Kind of like holding in boxing but much worse IMO

Floyd would certainly be a clear favourite. I'd guess 8/13 and 11/8 ish

Having watched Floyd act like a complete tw@t on MTV Cribs, it's pains me to say, that I think he's by far the best around and the best that there has been for a while.

Pacman wont stand a chance, but it'll be a great worthwhile payday for him nonetheless ....
