People will probably disagree with me, but MMA became much less interesting once promotions started dropping left and right. When we had the UFC, WEC, Strikeforce, Dream, Bellator, and Sengoku MMA was just so amazing. THe look and feel of different promotions in and of itself is great but also, probably my favorite time in a fighter's career is watching them go from struggling prospect to legit contender. Back then you had so many promotions showcasing talented fighters across the globe it was ridiculous. You had a plethora of tournaments, and I don't care what anyone says, tournaments are great! They are a great way for a fighter to get experience, improve, and carve out a story and a fanbase all at once. I yearn for the glory days...
Many of the major promotions going away has dampened my love on some level. I still watch the fights, but hardly ever live anymore and I drift on and off the forums when before I had to everything that was going on all the time and couldn't wait to let out my excitement with everyone else.
