The UFC is built on exciting fights. Boring fighters have no place there. Dana White has talked about this for years. There is a reason they offer huge bonuses for best KO/Submission and best fight. To push exciting fights. This sport isn't built on win/loss records.
If I am wrong then tell me one top fighter who draw big money without having exciting fights? Even Randy Couture brought a level of excitement to fights that should have absolutely sucked normally.
