Would you be interested in seeing the UFC hold a traditional martial arts event? It could be similar to the Olympics by featuring more than one discipline in the same night. So they could have fights like:

Steven Thompson vs Gunnar Nelson in a karate match

Damien Maia vs Rousimar Palhares in a gi jiu-jitsu match

Yoel Romero vs Daniel Cormier in a wrestling match

Hector Lombard vs Rick Hawn in a judo match

Cub Swanson vs Conor McGregor in a boxing match

Etc.

For it to stay fresh and competitive it could be held every 4 years. Winners would be awarded a trophy each time not a championship belt to defend.

Does this sound like a fun idea?

They do this every international fight week. They hold all types of tournaments in all types of styles.
 
its mixed martial arts, not separate martial arts.
 
Nope much rather see all those guys fight each other MMA rules.

I don't see any upside.
