UFC becoming even bigger

The UFC started back in 1993, 16 years ago.
Ever since then this organization has NOT stopped growing in popularity. A lot of people seem to be drawn to this type of extreme sport, especially men. The Ultimate Fighting Championship is exciting, intense, action packed and great! I can understand why it is a popular sport. I am a HUGE fan of the UFC. I watch almost every pay-per-view and every t.v. event. The ratings for the UFC says that the age range rounds from 18-34. I guess they didn't get me in there but I am close enough.
Dana White, President of the UFC, said once that UFC is the fastest growing sport in todays society. I completly agree with that. It has grown into something incredible. There are more fans, even better fighters, more exciting events, and way better fights. I love this sport and as I said before, I want to be a part of this sport in someway when I get older. That is my dream.
I believe that this sport will continue to grow. Recently at an event in Canada there was more than 21, 000 people there. That is the largest audience in North America to witness a mix martial arts event. That is insane and it is only growing in numbers. The UFC is basically the new boxing. Back in the day and still some today, boxing was the crap and extremely popular. It has died down in todays society and MMA or UFC has replaced it. Although, there is always a thought that maybe people will get tired of this sport and it will fade away, like boxing has somewhat. The UFC is almost to their 100 UFC pay-per-view and it will continue to move on up. I am so excited to see what the future holds for this sport.

? : Do you think this sport will continue to grow or fade out?
