Some people like the way Dana handles things, some don't. Giving favorable fights to people who bring viewers and doing immediate rematches etc.

If you were in charge what would you do to expand the UFC/mma? Co promote? Allow head kicks while in Japan? Pay booku money to sign Fedor? What would be your genius plan to promote growth?
 
Call Arianny for private meeting. Guaranteed growth.
 
Give my stars easy fights.

Conor vs BJ
Ronda vs Bethe 2
Brock vs CM Punk

Hand out performance bonuses for the best trash talkers on the card.

Make ring girls and ring guys for the other market.

Half fighter pay but increase bonuses for guys who try to sell fights. Sorry Aldo etc.

Have a 3 strikes and your out policy for injuries. Sorry Aldo again and Cain etc.

Give everyone a USP. Cain is the Mexican. Make Hendo dress and act like a really old man. Maybe give him a pipe and walking stick to target the older audience.

Have a game of bingo before the main event. Again to get the older audience engaged.

Have a pop star do a live performance to open the show. Attract the young girls.

Have a children's theme tune that is catchy and educational to help children and toddlers learn. Something like "you and me. You and me. Let's all watch the UFC."
 
Also ban drug testing. Actually drug test them to make sure they are on PEDs.
 
Put the fights inside a white ring, make the first round 10 mins, have some crazy lady scream to announce fights, and allow kicks and stomps to a downed fighter.
 
Ban Sherdoggers from making silly threads like this.
 
I'd add a yellow card system, where if the fighters were being boring a yellow card is given to both fighters. Each yellow card means a %20 reduction in fighter pay, redirected into my pocket.
 
Put on fights that fans are interested in, if that means some times a fighter gets looked over a bit for increased ppv then so be it. Yellow cards for inactivity and yellow cards and point reduction more evenly and strictly applied for eye pokes (I don't care if it's accidental, people losing fights and money will close hands in a hurry)
