Why does Nate Vs Leon get to be 5 rounds....

It gives Nate the chance to absorb ridiculous amounts of punishment and make a comeback.
If they make Chandler vs Gaethje 5 rounds, then those 2 might pace themselves and the UFC, and fans, want these two to come out guns a blazing, IMO.

Because ever since Nate beat Conor "Notorious for having absolutely no cardio" Mcgregor, there was this weird myth where after a Diaz brothers face gets turned into lasagna for 3 rounds they magically become better fighters in the 4th and 5th...

However, believers of this myth confused flipping the bird and flexing their 11" arms with making an actual meaningful performance in a fight where a fighter lands multiple strikes or makes an effort to take the fight to the ground in pursuit of a submission.
This myth was busted when recently Nate was so gassed in the Edwards fight he was physically unable to advance on an almost unconscious Edwards, instead opting to taunt him and throw insults. And when Nick literally gave up on the canvas as he was probably about to have a heart attack after punching himself out in his return fight after a decade of drug abuse.

This. Nate is heralded for being invincible in the 4th and 5th despite the fact that he's lost every 5 round decision he's been in.

but imagine.... a 3 round fight that goes to an amazing decision where both guys re still fresh and you can only wish that there were 2 more rounds. this has happened and it sucks.

Rose vs andrade 2, Costa vs yoel... Fights like this could have easily had different out comes with 5 rounders.

imagine if porier vs hooker were just a 3 round ppv co-main instead of a 5 round main event.

I agree 100%. It should definitely be 5 rounds and was just speculating as to why it’s not.
