UFC is about the best fighter, not performer.

Anyone watch Sonnen on the post show? He made a comment about how Machida shouldn't title shots because he's not as interesting to watch. He wins fights, he's the better fighter, so he should get chances. That's how it should be for everyone, if UFC ever gets to the point where the person who puts on the best show gets the shots, I'm done watching it.

We're already there. And have been for a while now

Machida is getting the shot. Dana just said it.

DangerousJon

I'm just talking in general, I didn't like what Sonnen said at all.

Really? I figured Gus would be getting it after how unsure Dana was going into tonight, then ending in a SD. Best for everyone really. Time is Machida's enemy against Jon and Gus needs some more experience still

Didn't know about it, but it seems Gus already has a fight in April.

Probably the same person screaming about Jones not taking the fight with Sonnen when Henderson backed out.
The UFC is about winning, but entertainment matters too. If an exciting fighter loses a few matches in a row, they'll most likely be kept around. If a boring fighter loses a few in a row, they'll most likely be cut now.

Saying it comparing losing fighters in terms of who to cut makes sense. I'm definitely not the guy you're referring to though.

Alright sorry. There were a ton of those guys when it happened.
