I don't have much to add to anything, as I dislike either sport. But I just wanted to bring up that in Brazil MMA is literally hundreds of times more popular than boxing. Victor Belfort, Anderson Silva, Royce Gracie, Randy Couture are very popular and UFC events are televised. Boxing, meanwhile, is not shown in any channels, not even PPV, and you will only see anything on it on ESPN international. No one knows Pacquiao, and the last time a boxer had any name recognition over there was when Acelino Freitas was champion.
