JB Muay Thai - your spot on but you don't realise it-
Boxing is going backwards dont you agree? It's a fact anyway if you look at PPV figures accross the globe -
HOWEVER -
THE UFC however - Biggest growing combat sport in the world second to none - WHY?! because of the way it is managed - they sanction their own fights and started out by promoting shows with a bit of cash. $2m (£1m) at the time - not a lot of money at all.
ONE BELT for ONE DIVISION - Only way this sport will grow- you should have to be signed to fight for shows like The Main Event- they should pay fighters contracts - get them binded by the men with the books and go forward that way -
Why doesnt someone say -
Heres the deal - Your fighting for me 5 times this year - I choose who you fight along with your management - you're not fighting for anyone else on these shores - who you fight will be dependent on who you beat - you will get paid £10k for the priveledge. obviously monetry values will fluctuate - and of course the prmooters are going to chirp up with the "what about injuries" "what about this what about that" well fuck that and COPY the UFC. Muay Thai in the UK doesn't look like a sport - it looks like a get together - get harsh get proper.
These boys of the Main Event look like they have the tools to do the production if its anything like reebok (far superior to early UFC production). I know someone very close to the business side of the UFC so if anyone wants some in depth confidential info I can pass on.
