David Meltzer, How Much Does Dana White Pay You?

God, I hate when MMA and boxing are in the same news article.  Even worse is when David Meltzer couldn't be objective if his life depended on it.  Let's start with the beginning- UFC HAS A RECORD YEAR ON PAY-PER-VIEW.  Good for them. NINE MILLION PPV BUYS?  Great.
boxers floyd mayweather jr. and manny pacquiao produced the two biggest individual pay-per-view events of 2010....

What was that? Couldn't hear you over the sound of Brock Lesnar's ego being stroked.  Meltzer seriously put the details of Mayweather and Pacquiao's achievements in the margins.

If you can't be objective, then say so.  I know I can't.  I tell everyone that the UFC is human cage-fighting that markets college wrestlers as blue-collar athletes for a white market but I would still never publish it as fact while minimizing their accomplishments.

    David Meltzer needs to STFU about Boxing, in my opinion. Why him and whatever that pile of trash commentator Joe calls himself these days feel the need to bring up boxing in comparison with the UFC, whenever the opportunity presents itself, certainly puzzles me.

    Stay within the boundaries of your own sport. Thanks.
