Go back in time, change MMA history, wut do?..

Thread's probably been done before..

But, if you could go back to any point in time and change the outcome of any fight, or which promotion a fighter is signed to, etc, what would you do?

I'm torn, I'd either..

1) Have Anderson KO Maia early instead of clowning around the whole fight. My reasoning: it would have undoubtedly setup Silva vs GSP. If I remember correctly, after the Maia fight, Dana said Anderson didn't deserve to fight GSP (or something along those lines). An impressive KO in the 1st rd would have definitely changed Dana's mind, and that fight would have happened.

2) I'd have Fedor sign with UFC before the Arlovski fight happened, most likely resulting in Fedor vs Couture for the HW title, instead of Couture vs Brock.

So, what say you UG? If you could go back in time to alter the course of MMA history, what would you do?.. Phone Post 3.0

There is no alternate universe where during 2010-2013 GSP would have fought Anderson.

Only chance is now that both fighters are ostensively finished with their MMA careers, they will come back for a 'superfight' in order to rake in millions to their respective bank accounts. Phone Post 3.0

Stop Mir's motorcycle accident, see his full potential

I would have ensured that there'd be no silly bans against 12-6 elbows, or upkicks, or knees to a grounded opponent. Too many fights to count might have had different outcomes.
