The public will never follow a sport which allows a fighter to attack a man that is already down. This is why there will never be a "champ" of MMA, however skillful or dominant any MMA fighter may become.
MMA is nowhere NEAR boxing today, and never will be.
Like I said, it was a following amonst 15-30 year old males... much the same as WWF does. (and I am not saying the are the same thing). This year, Pretty Boy Floyd vs Ricky Hatton will be a fight for the ages... whatever the biggest MMA fight is will certainly delight MMA fans, but no one else will know about it.
UFC was popular in the mid 90's and faded. The current trend of MMA will go the same way in my opinion.
