I don't fault "the UFC".
The sport evolved.
I hate that now it is a lot about money, but it is what it is.
Well, obviously the UFC does not help much, they are greedy as f*** and they are the ones allowed that fighters like Conor turn this about a money thing.
But times changes, and before it was about honor and the love for the sport.
But it makes sense that now (that MMA is more popular), fighters get paid better.
But UFC and some fighters just made it all about the money, and the sport is hurting because of it.
Yes, but, if the UFC shifted it's focus a bit, it too could have more fighters trying to actively look to finish fights as opposed to fighting safe to get the victory.
Yellow card system, perhaps it shouldn't dock 10% of a fighters pay, but, maybe a smaller number. It'll prevent stalling.
