Why would you curse Arlovski to wear that abomination of a belt?

AA is a bad dude. Id like to see him win that belt also, although I as PJ pointed out he'll have to beat the top 3 guy to do it. or is it top 5?

I don't believe in curses. Or luck. Or the Easter bunny. Or Santa Clause. Or.....

Even though it was against UFC flunkie and highly over rated Tim Sylvia, Fedor is absolutely top 3 in the wolrd. No doubt in my mind.

Huh? Have you SEEN the WAMMA belt? The UFC belt looks cool as hell. The WAMMA belt looks TERRIBLE.



I wasn't trying to have debate about the validity of one belt or the other.

Given the much bigger salaries generated for top level boxing events compared to top level MMA events, does a deal like this and the possibility of hybrid events provide an opportunity for greater salaries throughout the hybrid card? And the ability to support those salaries, since presumably the boxing portion of the card would generate a greater portion of the revenue (hypothetically)?

I was thinking that the only reason to add boxing would be to increase PPV buys. Lack of PPV is what has affliction in a money crunch.
