UFC Flyweight Tournament?

 What do you think?



How are they gonna crown the first champion? In my opinion, it would be hard to sell an inaugural title fight right off the bat as the mainstream fans aren't going to know who these guys are at first (for the most part).



Personally, i'm excited to see Flyweights get a shot at the big time, and i think it is an great opportunity to stir up interest in the new weightclass.



I realize tournaments can be hard to pull off, but i can't think of a better way to crown the first ever UFC Flyweight Champion...

I think the smartest thing to do is have a season of TuF revolve around them. If you actually get a majority of the top 16 at the weight class it would make for one of the best seasons of the show yet. And since Ian has "therapy" dogs we'd get to see some Chihuahua's on tv.

I like that idea too, if the finale was a title fight, if not then it would just be a pointless tournament as most of them are going to get contracts anyways. I mean, they have an entire division to fill out.

 

Not sure what Dana has in mind, but whatever it is I'm sure it'll be awesome!!! Phone Post
