Most money making/best card that could be made IMO-
Boxing-
Vitali vs. Vladimir
PBF vs. Pac-Man
Hopkins vs. RJJ 2
Cotto vs. Margarito 2
Pavlik vs. Williams
MMA-
Fedor vs. Lesnar
GSP vs. Anderson
Machida vs. Mousasi
Kimbo vs. Petruzelli 2
Ken Shamrock vs. Frank Shamrock
Which one would you rather see/buy?
I'd rather watch PBF vs Pacquiao the most, with Fedor vs Lesnar coming in second.
I would think that Kimbo vs Lesnar would be the biggest money-making card in MMA though.
top
Fedor Lesnar.
Which CARD.
not which fight.
Irule - If you're talking about ppv buys than there is no reason for Machida vs. Mousasi.
Fedor Vs. Lesnar
Machida vs. Rampage
BJ vs. Diego
Couture vs. Anderson
educated fans(who buy PPVs too)know that Gegard is the toughest fight for Machida.
Couture and Quinton post less of a threat.
Lesnar vs Kurt Angle/Nog/Lashley
Kimbo vs Chuck
Anderson vs Machida/Mir/Couture
GSP vs Hendo/Marquardt/Belfort
BJ vs Nick Diaz
You said in terms of buyrates...
voorhees -Irule - If you're talking about ppv buys than there is no reason for Machida vs. Mousasi.
Fedor Vs. Lesnar
Machida vs. Rampage

Toughest fights don't always equate to big buyrates...
Guys I said "most money making/best card"
I am saying meaningful fights in addition to lucrative ones.
I mean Aoki-Penn would be out.
And so would Lesnar vs. Angle.
For 2 different but obvious reasons.
Irule - Only one fight I listed wouldn't be a title fight... how does that = not meaningful?
I didnt say your card wasnt man.
voorhees - Guys I said "most money making/best card"

And so would Lesnar vs. Angle.
For 2 different but obvious reasons.
Then take off Vitali vs Vlad and Cotto vs Margarito...Mosley vs Cotto, maybe
voorhees -Irule - Only one fight I listed wouldn't be a title fight... how does that = not meaningful?
I didnt say your card wasnt man.
Angle could actually take Lesnar down over and over and possibly win that fight...Buyrates would be through the roof for that alone.
Lesnar Vs Bob Sapp
Anderson Vs GSP
Fedor Vs Josh Burentt (Just need to get past the test)
Machida vs Mousasi
Royce Gracie vs Kimo 2
Mike Tyson Vs Kimbo

Mosley/Cotto wasnt that huge of a fight draw the FIRST time it happened.
Vlad/Vitali would probobly draw in the entire continent of Europe.It would would probably be the biggest grossing fight of all time in europe.
And do you know how many puerto rican fight fans want to see Cotto get revenge on Magarito?
iirc 400,000 buys for Cotto vs Mosley isn't pathetic by any means...Pretty sure it drew more than your fight. Match Margarito up with Paul Williams if you want to watch him get beat up.
Paul Williams didnt beat up Margarito last time.
It drew more than "my fight"?
What are you talking about?
HAHA...Cotto/Margarito, my bad.
If I had to choose a card with the 5 most intriguing boxing matchups or the 5 most intriguing mMa match ups it is MMA hands fucking down. 4 out of the 5 boxing matchups will be pitty pat drawn out decisions.
Beefcake the Mighty - HAHA...Cotto/Margarito, my bad.
Cotto/Margarito 1 didnt do as well as Mosely/Cotto.
But I will bet Cotto/Margarito 2 would be huge.
Look how much "controversy"added to Corrales/Castillo.
