One thirty min round.

Would this solve the problem. I've seen other threads where it says the rounds gsp won were close but the rounds Hendricks won he beat him up. That's what makes it hard to see gsp the winner. So would one round solve this? I'm not sure as both fighters could have their moments in that round. Just wanted the experts of the ug to weigh in. Phone Post 3.0

No shit. I thought being a round being judged in its entirety might make it better. And for all the purest out there. But no one wants to discuss. Ha Phone Post 3.0

I like it. 1 15 min round for normal fights, or 25 for Championship fights. Phone Post 3.0

Yeah. Like I said the purest would like it. It doesn't favor wrestlers. Gives jits guys time. More finishes. But more importantly. No bs decisions. Well maybe. Why do you like it. What's your take why it would be good. Phone Post 3.0

First time I had a double post. Phone Post 3.0

All they need to do is actually score by points.. As in make it much easier to score 10-10, 10-8 and even rarely a 10-7.. Hendricks would've won the fight because the rounds he won were clearly WAY better than GSP's rounds. That way they could account for more even and more lopsided rounds and we'd get a better result. They should also implement a sudden death round and make it much easier to score rounds as draws. Phone Post 3.0

I love the idea. You'll see tons more submissions and finishes in general if they did this.

Very unlikely to occur in the US though. Phone Post 3.0

Why don't they do it. It can't get approved? Phone Post 3.0

It won't get approved by the athletic commissions for one.

But more importantly it would take steps back for the UFC. When Zuffa took over they made a lot of changes to bring in mainstream fans. Long rounds deter mainstream fans. They don't have the patience or the knowledge to watch a fight go to the ground and have it turn into a Ju Jitsu match. So while the real fight fans could appreciate it. The mainstream fans need the drama of the rounds saving the fighter. Phone Post 3.0

Judge the fight as a whole...problem solved...



Yeah right...but might help Phone Post 3.0

Also Leslie 537. You sound like my kind of girl. Maybe you can come watch the fights with me. Phone Post 3.0

Maybe. Just maybe. But guys don't typically like watching fights with me. Especially when I'm more knowledgeable than them. Phone Post 3.0

Well I can see that. But that just because they are uneducated anyways. Even if they are right they would be stupid to say something. You come over my place and you will be a winner!! Phone Post 3.0

Maybe. Just maybe. Most guys don't like watching the fights with me. Especially since I'm typically more
Knowledgeable than them. Phone Post 3.0

I love an educated woman especially one that likes mma. How often do you watch the fights. And some reason you've caught my attention. Phone Post 3.0

I get your idea but nobody is trying to fight for 30 mins straight lol. Fighters are human they need breaks in between for rest and coaching. Phone Post 3.0

what the fuck is going on am I on eharmony?
