one more round...

[VIPERdude]

a FIGHT in the real world is a fight. If we could just remove the duration of a past UFC fight. Just keep the rounds, the rules and regulations....fight to a definitive winner whether it be by KO or submission.
How many outcomes could have been different? How many were about to fall until saved by the final bell?

Do any fights come to mind for you that you personally would have loved to see not gone to the judges?

Lawlor vs Condit ?
Jon Jones vs Alexander Gustafsson ?
Fedor Emelianenko vs Mirko 'CroCop'?
Anderson Silva vs Nick Diaz?
GSP vs Johny Hendricks ?

bisping would have probably died eventually against silva

 

[ufcoddsmaker]

cards could last 12 hours etc fox wouldnt like it also you would see much more injuries and less active fighters

If these were real fights with no time limit than bjj would have a bigger impact.

But in that same note, real fights don't last longer than a minute before someone breaks them up so guys like Lombard, Romero, and Uberreem have the advantage.

a fight in the real world is life and death too. you get knocked down and someone stomps your face in and you're an invalid the rest of your life. This isn't bloodsport.

Silva Diaz coulda gone on another10 rounds and it woulda still just been a slow paced clown fest.
Hendricks woulda TKO'd GSP
Jones woulda KO'd Gustaffson.

Still a stupid ass idea.

 

[Pointy Elbows]

Conor would still be betting choked

That is why I said keep the rounds, the rules, etc. This clearly wasn't a fight to the death idea. Just fight until a finish. I assume you didn't read the whole thread.
