I think that one thing that MMA has going for it is people know that boxing is crooked and that it isn't governed well. Also the lack of heavyweight superstars in boxing will help the MMA because the general public wants to see the large superstars fight and that is something that MMA provides, maybe not to the extent that it should, but at a greater scale then boxing. Boxing has lost the sport aspect of things with the faulty judging and crooked promoters, something that I don't think has leaked into MMA yet. I think that it will happen quicker then you all expect. The first thing needs to be a million dollar payday in the UFC, and the best fight for that is Liddell and Silva.
