I count 8 fighters on this weekends PPV card who are 37 years old or older.

UFC needs fresh blood and young stars BADLY.

A lot of divisions have got the top 5 filled with 35 year olds.
This company needs to learn how to build new stars and go back to getting the best from around the world in free agency...
but not when they are already shot and clearly past prime like the wave of Bellator big name (Pitbull, MVP, Chandler)

Good thing we still have this young prospect that has the potential to be the first triple champ, and he's only 18

Complaining about Andrade? she has constantly delivered, and thats on the prelims.
 
Damn, they have Edson Barboza on the early prelims behind Green, Meerschaert and Andrade. The biggest highlight reel machine in UFC history.

Battle should also be above them.

I wrote it and got laughed. There is no talent in MMA, because every athlethic guys go to some other sport.
UFC won't get young talent, because there is no young talent. Other organisation use leftovers after UFC. Oktagon is biggets european promotion and they just signed over 33 yo Bucheda, who was released from UFC, is their former champ and problably future.
KSW is the second biggest promotion and their champ is UFC dropout Phil de Fries who just defeated biggest new polish talent - Arkadiusz Wrzosek, who is 33 himself.
Bellator was dominated by like of Bader.


No sport for young people

Fake news. I'm older than all of those guys.
 
Other than Kevin Holland, they only book these guys twice a year max and it takes a lot of wins to get ranked these days if you are a younger newer fighter.
 
I was half through my school time till the oldest on the card was even born. For me they are all young....
