if Shogun Vera was only 3 rounds it would have been a lack luster fight... if shogun/hendo was only 3 rounds it would have been "meh"
I love stacked cards as much as the next guy but Shogun/Gustaffson deserves a 5 round main event slot. BJ vs Rory is a good enough 3 round co main event.
at ufc 152 we have to watch 2 midgets fighting for some hypothetical title while shogun and gustaffson are relegated to a 3 round affair.
And im not only busting on the little people... who the heck is asking for a browne/big foot 5 round main event?
Championship fights will always get the main slot over any fight...Period. No need for every fight to be 5 rounds.
^ da heck does that have to do with the topic?
If my aunt had a dick she'd be my uncle.
WestCoastMXC - Championship fights will always get the main slot over any fight...Period. No need for every fight to be 5 rounds.
this is fine... im not really advocating that non title fights leap frog title fights... Im saying Shogun/Gustaffson and other important #1 contender bouts should be headlining their own events.
If Vera vs Shogun was 3 rounds they would have trained differently and the fight would play out different.
They should switch Browne/Bigfoot and Shogun/Gus. I can't think of many good heavyweight fights that lasted into the championship rounds.
Gustafsson won't need more than two rounds to maul Shogun to Bolivia
I thought Vera vs Shogun was exciting the whole way. 4th round was the worst one before the finish. Hendo vs Shogun would have still been good but simply seen as a Hendo beat down.
Fans are hard to please. A lot of you say the normal cards suck and you claim the UFC is getting stale and therefore the casual fans no longer care and all that.
They stack a card and you are mad the fights on the card cant be 5 rounds. If it was the main event and the card was like they have been you complain.

I sware to god i think more than one person posts on your screenname, sometimes you make amazing posts... Otger times its complete hate on what tge ufc does
Shogun shouldn't take any 3round fights !
It doesn't make sense , he knows he needs more time to outwork his opponents these days . His gas diminishes to 50% quiet quickly of late and his cardio starts to outshine his opponent when there levels drop later in the fights . Very strange in my opinion , but it does happen and is a factor for his fights !
