Dear dfw. WTF 3 or 5 round main events??? Geezus

Wtf is going on with main events? This is what makes the UFC a non main sport. From trt to shitty judging to having no clue what fights are how long or why. Make some damn rules and stick to them. Good lord Phone Post

This one was already signed for three and they said so earlier.

Not allowed in Sweden.

 All main events that have NOT already been signed yet will be 5 rounds. This match was already signed before the change so it was 3 rounds.
 
Oh, and i guess what they said up there too.

 

Not 5 because Silva was a replacement for lil nog

No before the Sanchez/Ellenberger fight they said FX, Fox, and PPV main events would be 5 rounds. Then they changed it right after the Sanchez/Ellenberger fights that Fuel TV main events would also be five rounds except for the ones already made.

Who cares? They had the main event. Gustafsson won pretty decisively.

Elias Cepeda -  

Not 5 because Silva was a replacement for lil nog


 So what does that mean, if someone replaces little Nog their fight wont be 5 rounds?  

What happens if Mir replaces Overeem, his title fight against JDS wont be 5 rounds either?  Or will it be 5 rounds since he isn't replacing little nog?

Someone clarify what the significance of replacing little Nog is in this not being a 5 round fight.  Thanks.  

Makes no sense. And if Sweden doesn't allow it, here is a shocker, don't go there! Phone Post

I wrote this on my thread too... Which excuse is it?! LOL

"It was already signed..."
"It's cause Thiago was a replacement..."
"It's not allowed in Sweden..."

 this!

WTF is going on here? Are they 3 rounds or 5?

Fuck Zuffa, get it together

I don't get how people don't think this is a bigger deal. Dana bitches and moans about the inconsistent judging and so on from all the ac's and his own damn promotion is just as inconsistent. If you wanna be mainstream and expand your sport get some damn constancy so fans that don't know the sport aren't confused as hell watching one event to the next Phone Post

willienugget - You can't really expect someone fighting on short notice to be prepared for five rounds.


 So with that in mind, if Overeem is ruled out of the JDS fight, there wont be a replacement because we can't expect anyone to step in for a 5 round fight on short notice?  Is this really your point?
