BOILEDFREAKEGGS Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Should the UFC consider a minor league of sorts? This season of TUF seems to have 10-12 top guys who all surely won't get into the UFC. Also, looking back at past seasons there were a few guys who needed more experience before entering the Octagon. Even if they had one event each month (sort of like strikeforce challengers but better) in smaller markets, they would do well. I am talking about some of the following fighters (please add more if ya like): Junie Browning Jamie Yager Kris McCray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khazaljj Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Lol at this guy thinking that he came up with a new idea that none of us have thought of before I posted that Strikeforce should be called UFC Div.II, the day it was bought :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillBurgess Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Suggestion: Absorb Strikeforce as soon as the Showtime contract expires, bringing their best to the UFC, and keeping SF as a holding pen for released UFC fighters, and not-yet-ready for Primetime guys. Make the UFC a Top 20 promotion, and allow SF to be the next 21-40 ranked guys. Strikeforce will still have a function to serve. Let's use them wisely.

Michigan_Jay Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Any promotion outside of the UFC is minor league right now. I really like Bellator though and hope they continue to rise and become more relevant as a promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therien87 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 I don't know why everybody answered its called strikeforce like the idea is stupid. I don't think there's any mention anywhere that ufc will keep strikeforce once the showtime contract is up. they will probably simply keep the best and shut it down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruteDion Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Yep...this can be done with strikeforce...they kinda did it with wec...letting guys go there to fight so why not strikeforce...but keep it around Soon the ufc will have way tomany fighters in in...just imagin if the hw class had 50 + fighters like ww or lw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
