Is DWCS better than most UFC cards?

With the way the show is setup, the only way to get a contract is to impress the bald goof. Winning doesnt really matter, as sometimes even exciting losers will get signed or given another chance. So most fighters come to BANG. They really want to be a fucking fighter, not break useless takedown records or win a hugging contest. At least for the night.

Yeah they are mostly unknowns but looking at some of these last UFC fight nights, I dunno who tf most of them are either.
 
IMO no, because the fights feel irrelevant/meaningless to me. There is no context, story, or relevance. Also the skill level isn’t very high imo.

Part of the enjoyment to me is the build up, the story, the expectations before round 1, predictions going in, form lines, rivalries. All of that.

Contender fighters have none of this. They are desperate and broke which helps guarantee carnage and wars which does help entertainment factor and every once in a while you can spot a true talent
 
The fights are comparitively low level most of the time, so definitely not. The UFC brass and commentators go nuts over these lower-skill brawls every week, but I'd much rather see a higher-skill anything inside the cage, even if it's a chess match.
 
The last 2 weeks have been fun but that isn’t the norm. A lot of ridiculous mismatches and low level fights

Top ranked ONE FC fighter who is coming off a title fight loss in ONE takes on a 15-1 champion from a regional promotion with multiple title defences, with the winner getting to fight in the UFC.

If that's not enough relevance/story for you, I'm not sure what to tell you.
 
I dunno cause i don't watch it. But i think most of the time, u get poor people who need a job and make em fight. You gonna get better fights.
Same way Fight Nights used to be understood as the stepping stone fighters needed to impress on if they wanted to get on a PPV main card
 
Not watching DWCS if you're a fight fan is absurd, best show on Tuesday night for 10 weeks straight. Not all barn burners but nearly a 70% finish rate over 10 weeks this season! We'll welcome you into the PBP next season with open arms, give it a chance.

No, somebody told me they dont all become UFC champions so, why waste my time?
 
It's better than Apex cards, that's for sure
Not better than PPVs or big FNs in China, France, UK, with good local fighters, or those Middle East stacked cards
 
They actually have to try on Daner’s Cantender Showcase. Once they get that contract, they can coast
 
Depends on how much you like wins via method of decision. If you are a decision afficionado, the UFC proper is where it's at.
