85% of the roster had less than 3 fights in 2012

I've said on here for years now the UFC has too many fighters for the events they have.

To me they've been needing some sort of "B" league promotion for years now. Not only to get guys fights but to also build up fighters. No one else seems to be able to keep a promotion running for years so the UFC should step up and do it.

They may not fight alot but they get paid huge money so it doesn't matter. Some of these guys are even get $10K just to show.

Have you ever paid bills? If you get 10k for a fight and only gets that 2 or 3 times a year, minus all the costs of being a fighter, you're not making much money...

Good post, TS. Interesting data.

i think lots of fighters would like to fight more - ufc has its plans though

this, funny how people don't realize this.

They do, the point is there are too many people on the damn roster.

It's getting to be like KOTC with all these no names. Every asshole with a marketable enough personality gets a shot.

That graph should only cover the fighters that were on the roster the whole year and did not get injured.

Now it means jack shit.
