MMA/UFC is mostly popular with the wrestling fans. I deal with children everyday and MMA/UFC near really come out their mouths. I hear about Mayweather, Broner, and a few other boxers. I'm guess it's the race demographic that likes these sports too.
Fight Night Champion was a good game plain and simple. It was not boxing and the game had no depth to it. The game sales had nothing to do with the sport popularity....at all! I have interviewed boxers and fans who said they didn't like EA Fight Night Champion.
