Question to the boxing fans..

[Islandman]

What do you think of the mainstream media attention that mixed martial arts/ultimate fighting has been getting recently? Has boxing seen its best days and the talent will start moving to this sport?

This Kimbo Slice guy seems to be as well-known as any boxer out there today even though he appears to be more hype than anything else at this point.

kimbo slice? never heard of him!! anyway i don't follow boxing the way i used to......it started going south after duran/hearns/leonard/hagler.....the heayweight was mediocre all through the tyson era......

Do a google pon him! Youtube streetfighting sensation before they drafted him to go pro as a MMA fighter.

The general view seems to be that at this point he is not very good because he has not yet developed the skills, but will draw crowds to the sport because of his youtube popularity.
