How is Silva vs Sonnen a 3 rounder and a main event?

Do YOU want to see a 5th round in this fight?
Didn't think so.

I'd take another 2 rounds

Yes I would like 2 more rounds of GNP. Wandy is getting more and more hurt with every round.

Chael's pseudo GnP is not hurting anybody.

Because it's been like that for a very long time for anything not named to UFC. And even up until a couple years ago the UFC did it all the time.

You're getting Bellator confused with the UFC. Most organizations only have the title fights as 5 rounds

 

[Metallicalabran]

Just like that

I am SO happy Bellator doesn't do the "Main event has to be 5 rounds" BS. I have always hated that.

Title Fights = 5 rounds

NonTitle Fights = 3 rounds

It's called the mercy rule.

Why should people have to suffer through a 5 round fight just because it is at the top of the card?
