Some think it will get bigger then boxing,my question is do you think it will when it becomes bigger get corrupt an fighters will get agents an so on?
I kinda doubt it an I hope not because I know alot of these fighters take pride in what they do an I know alot no matter how much money is offered would take a dive.

Most fighters have managers that negotiate fight deals so that in part is like having an agent. As far as price numbers it has exceeded boxing for the last 4 years. MMa is still in its transition from crawling to taking its first baby steps. The thing I like the most and why I have a great deal of respect for MMA fighters is that they are more disciplined and are less likely to be cocky like most sports figures. Having a great training camps a fighter is more likely to be real down to earth and very respectable.
