Matt Hughes Comments on the WWE

Hughes commented on how big UFC was right now in the United States, “Once we took over boxing and the WWE I was content, because I really thought we’re better sports than them, and now we’re on top of them I’m happy.”

While UFC is killing both boxing and WWE on pay-per-view annually, WWE kills UFC in overall revenue; this is largely in part due to the fact that WWE has so many different revenue streams that are not available in UFC. WWE also beats UFC in television ratings. Regarding boxing, Floyd Mayweather vs. Oscar De La Hoya doubled anything on PPV that UFC will do this year.
