The quality of the cards since the new weigh in rule.........

[ExitLUPin]

UFC 199 - Top to bottom prolly the greatest event UFC has ever had. Reyes/Kim FOTY contender to open the card, one of the biggest upsets ever, KOTY in Hendo/Lombard, multiple finishes and brutal knockouts of annoying fighters

FN Ottawa - one of the best FN cards in a long time. Bosse/Oconnell FOTY contender, multiple comebacks and finishers. Elias/Alvey was shit but everything was solid to great

FN RDA/Eddie - 5 straight submissions to start the card, Jouban/Mouhammad one of the better fights of the year, Eddie and Mina had brutal KOs. Lewis/Hoy was kinda shit but it had a couple moments

FN Joanna/Claudia 2 - this wasnt a great card until the ME. It was like the Aldo/Mendes 2 card slow, only a couple noteworthy things leading up to the FOTY contending ME title fight

200 - meh, 4.5/10 card............

South Dakota - Great back and forth fights, brutal finishes, two round of the year contenders one strong on in Ferg/Lando and lesser one in Nguyen/Smolka. Very consistent card, only duds in Olynik/Daniel and the chick fight that went to decision

Lately the cards have been great for sure but I do think your 200 rating is quite harsh.

 

[phunky]

Yeah i noticed same thing

Early weigh ins are obviously much better for fighter's performance

 

[Rod Farva]

So far so good.

Even though 200 didn't live up to the hype, that card was ridiculous. The UFC did their part on that one

 

[bringitoncomeon]

Agree with all of that

 

[Kinger85]

on the whole, this has been a great change. I like it a lot. Still a small sample size, but the early results are promising.

 

[SouthoftheAndes]

What's the new rule?

not harsh enough. 200 was ass. everyone at my 200 party tuned out after dc shit all over the octagon

4.5/10 are you kidding me? That is ridiculous.
I think a lot of people bought into the hype behind the card and wanted to see some fantastic outcomes ala Hunt KO Brock, (picked Brock, knew he would crush Hunt) Anderson KO DC, (picked DC, if you picked AS lol) Frankie KO Aldo (warned everybody he would never be on Jose's level, picked Aldo) and when these special outcomes didn't happen people felt let down.

I for sure did not, 7/10 for me.

 

[Lucifer Alpha]

A lot of these smaller cards also used the smaller cage if I'm not mistaken.

UFC 200 of course did not and...well...sucked.

I didnt have high hopes for 200. I still thought it would be a great card but was saying before the fight it wouldnt come close to 199.

It wasnt close to a 7/10 lol.

I agree 199 was a 9.5/10 for me, I called the Bisping upset and it was a great card to watch but saying 200 was a 4.5 is just ridiculous.

 

[Gluhov]

bruh, replace dc with rumble, weidman, rockhold, romero or bisping. none of them would have fought like s. dc deserves all the shit hes getting for sucking the life out of the arena

 

[DoopidyDawesome]

UFC 200 sucked shit. The fightpass fights and Miesha getting destroyed were the only redeeming qualities. I don't care who won or lost, the shit was a snoozefest. Aldo fight was good too. Still, the card played out horribly.

 

[Kowboy Karl]

These cards all sucked

 

[Adamant]

UFC needs a smaller cage.
