I guess we are all guilty of national bias at times... but can I point out that the articles and figures you are quoting are all about the USA only?
Boxing is a world sport. It is massive in Mexico (for example) where MMA is not.
I agree with one point in one article - that MMA has a limited demographic, a point I already made and you have backed up and reinforced.
I said that MMA was only popular amongst American males 15-30... the article makes the point that actually it is white American makes 15-30 that make up nearly all of the audience of MMA.
