What about Poatan? He's on a all time high and several of my friends never heard of himBrazil doesnt care about MMA, they care about Brazilian MMA and MMA fighters. If one of there own isnt champ they could care less from my experience.
I clearly remember uncle Dana bragging about boxing matches have one good fight and the rest are fillers while he stacks his cards with 5 stacked fights.True, and of course "marketability" played into every decision I imagine, but they still had much more of a drive to grab all the top talent they could get their hands on.
OP, burn out is real. I took a year or two break from the sport when it got boring to me 2017-2018 and only watched a small handful of events then.
This is inarguably true IMO. There is nothing about the way the company puts on events now that is better except for production value. The cards are more watered down, with now seemingly hundreds of no name no face B and C level fighters that take up main card spots (Bo vs whatever can he KO'd)
I picked a random card, top of my head, 115.
Every fight on the main card was worth a watch when they were conceptualized.

This is what happens when UFC shifts it's focus from building talent to building a corporate brand.
The brand power is so strong only long time hard-core fans can identify a massive decline in talent.
The average U FIGHT CHEAP casual legit thinks he's seeing the best and most talent filled product he's ever watched.
UFC has become the Amazon of MMA. Fast, cheap, convenient but absolutely SOULLESS.
Well start writing love notes about it and leaving them in random places... that'll get em talking sir lolUfc is dying. But in all seriousness, its honestly dead here in Brazil. Nobody talks about it
