Improvements YOU would like to see in the UFC..

[LoneStalker]

No more rounds. 15 minutes fights, and 30 minutes for title fights.
Somehow, limit weight cut (maybe same day weighting ceremony, IDK)
No more stupid interviews.
No more stupid hugs before entering the ring.

 

[Lucifer Alpha]

Smaller cage.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Bring back soccer kicks
Bring back knees to the head on the ground
Bring back 12 to 6 elbows
Make the cage smaller so we have more action, some of the fight nights use the smaller cage already.
Get rid of flyweight and womens divisions
Get rid of Reebok
Allow Gi's to be worn if the fighter wishes
Shoe the judges official scores after every round, so we know where we stand.

 

[Redhawks100]

Personally I would like:
+Bring back the old tournament format.. Several fights per night, like they had in Ufc, Pride and Glory..
+Live performances on, On one or two fights per event.
+More frequent European and Asian fight nights.
+Arrange "loser leaves town" or "winner gets signed" fights, and market them as such.
+Less fighters, we only need top 20 in every division

-Reebok was an awful change, i liked the custom shorts and shirts better..

What changes would you want to see in the UFC ?

Everything is fine for the most part. I'd like to see more heavyweight fights and less rematches.

I'd like to see higher Reebok payouts as well but that will probably come with time.

 

[Fahrenheit1221]

The biggest one would be fewer rematches. I remember years ago after a fighter lost a title fight they were actually expected to win 2-3 more fights before getting another title shot. Now if you're remotely competitive or if the champion/ex-champion is a marketable star then there will likely be an immediate rematch.

 

[TheChance]

Sorry boys but the one night tourneys arenever coming back.

 

[politozx7r]

-of course do something about reebok
-more restrictions on severe weight cutting
-reserve fighters for major fights in case of injuries
-end of the year bonus checks for fighters that compete 3 or more times

I like this
Plus I'd like the UFC to go after the all the best fighters, boring or not.

They say they have the best fighters but still haven't signed askren.

 

[Sgt Smith]

Reebok uniforms are way too colorful. It hurts my eyes.

 

[Aluminati]

Get rid of elbows on the ground.

Change the one hand on the ground rule for kneeing a downed opponent to be 2 hands. I don't see the difference in safety between having a hand on the ground and not. It just means if a wrestler gets stopped in the sprawl, they can put one hand down and not have to worry about getting kneed and KTFO. If they have to put two down, it discourages the cheap escape from Wand style knees.

Yellow card for stalling (first offense is warning, second is point deduction + 10% purse).
Increase fighter pay through providing "promotion" bonuses.

 

[LongDongSilver]

This is more of a dream .. but setup a Super Fight Record in addition to their current record ... That would help squash some P4P talk and it wouldn't let fighters use excuses of ruining their records they have going for them currently ..

One fighter that comes to mind is DJ ... IMO DJ vs. Cruz II needs to happen !! until then DJ will not be P4P #1

 

[Coconut Joe]

More expos in smaller markets. Half the roster is habitually injured so they can meet and great fans while convalescing from their injuries.

 

[Doodles]

Closed finger gloves.
Get rid of Buffer.

 

[Mr Wings]

A system of having replacement fighters available and scheduled in the case of the main event fighter getting his bones broken in training, drinking viles of stuff a guy from Thailand gave him, or having a coked out hit and run incident.

 

[DIABOLUS]

Sizeable percentage bonus for EVERY finish (not just two Performances of the Night).

Allow all elbows.

Allow soccer kicks and stomps.

Fine guys that withdraw with injury less than a month to the fight.

Reintroduce the ramp for fighter walkouts.

And if we MUST have Reebok, replace the shorts with generic style Reebok shorts that fighters can customize similar to their trademark color motif (Anderson black/yellow, BJ Penn white/blackbelt, Rich Franklin brown/pink, Shogun white/blue/green/yellow, etc.) without necessarily promoting competing clothing brands.

I feel you man, but they're taking enough head trauma.

I really agree strongly about your gi idea. It's pretty fucked up to not allow it.

 

[wilKO]

Legalise all drugs. And I mean all drugs.

 

[BluegrassBoy]

I don't know how to do it but for sure a better scoring system or at least a more consistent one.

 

[bobthebuilder]

Personally I would like:
+Bring back the old tournament format.. Several fights per night, like they had in Ufc, Pride and Glory..
+Live performances on, On one or two fights per numbered event.
+More frequent European and Asian fight nights.
+Arrange "loser leaves town" or "winner gets signed" fights, and market them as such.
+Less fighters, we only need top 20 in every division

What changes would you want to see in the UFC ?

The UFC events should be more of a show each time, less generic. Main and co-main event fighters, and former champions, should always get big entrances with dancers and anything else they want.

 

[Mr Wings]

Sorry boys but the one night tourneys arenever coming back.

Agreed. And they shouldn't; too many dropped out with injuries.

But tournaments taking place over three or four events would be awesome. Like Pride. Winner gets title shot.
