As far as MMA taking over...
Pride, UFC and the like have good fighters and good fights with the kind of back-and-forth action not seen in many boxing matches, but the majority of those fighters are heavyweights.
You won't see lighter-weight fighters like bantamweights and featherweights in the octagon. That is the main reason MMA will not completely take over boxing: much of today's boxing audience are fans of the featherweight through middleweight divisions. A lot of the American television boxing audience are also Latinos--thus, fights like Morales vs. Pacquiao (a legitimate superfight featuring lightweights) being on PPV--and aside from Tito Ortiz and the Gracies, there haven't been many big name Latino fighters in MMA.
Further, MMA has yet to produce household/crossover stars like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and Mike Tyson; though the current rise in its popularity--due to massive TV exposure--could change that.

At least this will be a proper fight, between two great warriors of the fight game, its because of twats like Mayweather that people are turning towards MMA.
As for the PPV, i would have to say if there is one fight i would pay too see this year it would be this one, its gonna be a war.

Excuse me, who cares about Pacman, the one who brings the money in is Morales.
