UFC 83 vs Calzaghe/Hopkins

Which will it be

For me I gotta go with Calzaghe vs Hopkins

Nothing beats a good boxing fight imo, but I do tend to watch more mma fights a year than I do for boxing, but top boxing matches I cannot skip

UFC 83 has only one interesting fight for me, which could easily end in the first.

I don't care for Bisping vs. can or Starnes vs. Quarry etc.

But 83 is a great card for Tuf Noobs.

This UFC card isn't the strongest, but I would rather see GSP fight than Calzaghe or Hopkins, so my $45 is going to them

Boxing cards are a waste of money.

I'd rather watch the UFC but I'd watch both if I didn't have to pay for one as in the past year or two boxing is starting to get alot better IMO with their matchmaking,hyping fights and putting together fight cards with fights fans want to see.

I just like MMA better though and UFC 83 has alot of good fighters IMHO that are going to put on good fights and the event only would have been better if Cote had fought Belcher like he s supposed to instead of Day.

yea, lol @ the people saying they dont want to pay for the boxing match. Shows they dont even follow boxing. "I love boxing, but I dont want to pay for this one"..... it is on regular HBO.

dont comment about something if you are just bullshitting and know nothing about it. It just makes others who dont know to begin with think the same thing. Retardation breeds retards... and people wonder why america is starting to collapse on itself.



edit: the TS has an awesome username.
