But as usual the MMA fans ignore the facts and just plough on with their own opinions which they will not change even when proved wrong.

Actually, a search for "MMA" turned up 27.7 million hits on my end. And "UFC" turned up another 28 million.
How many "boxing" hits were references to "Boxing Day" or "boxing" one's ears, or "Thai boxing" or "kick boxing" or ....
You have to admit that those returns for MMA and UFC are pretty decent for something "with no history."
But it's true. Google isn't the best measure for deeming the popularity of something. And it's only one measure. Attendance, number of events, number of practitioners, increasing number of practitioners, the money involved, the merchandising related to it, cultural references to it, its visibility and promotion in public, who's talking about it, etc., are others.
