That nonsense has already been covered. MMA had and has a number of dominant fighters with an aura of invincibility.

Emperor of Masculinity? Why not have all the boxing champs step into the UFC octagon with the UFC champs? We'll see who is more "masculine".
And the titles for the UFC's weight classes aren't exchanged on a weekly basis. More like 4 -6 months between title fights for each respective champion.

MMA fighters aren't versions of Hulk Hogan any more than boxers are. Well...you may actually be right. Unlike boxing, most MMA and professional wrestling matches are at least entertaining.
