UFC Hitting Mainstream

-More popular than boxing in Vegas
-More people tuned in to Tuesday's Ortiz vs Shamrock 3 Final Chapter on Spike than the Baseball playoffs.
I think what people are beginning to see is that these guys are true athletes in every sense of the word, not crazy no-holds barred street fighters. Tae Kwon Do, boxing, wrestling and judo are all Olympic sports, MMA just combines them all into one super sport.

Me and my friends always go to the bar and watch it together. Even when it was on spike TV, we watched Ortiz vs. Shamrock 3 at a Bar.
I also like watching Pride fighting. MMA is defnitely more entertaining than Boxing.
