So I was thinking, WSOF 22 Shields v Palhares was an amazing main event, there was something special about it.
But if Shields v Palhares was stuck in the middle of some random PPV card 2 years ago, no one would have cared. It would have lost the intrigue of the fight, it would just be another common fight before the main event.
The UFC should scrap UFC on FOX/Fight Night Cards and brand it as a new organization(still within the UFC) but with a different look and different rules. Put on fights with slight mismatches too. If a guy is #4 and #5, they don't necessarily have to fight each other. Silva/Diaz is a great example of the type of fights that don't necessarily make competitive sense, but would be interesting to see play out on live TV.
