Is the anticlimactic ending of UFC 71 much different than Tyson's 91 second fight w/ Spinks?...The spinks fight I'd say was even more built up. its fighting anyway, there is always the potential for first round KOs or long snore fests..lets be honest when you are talking about two fighters who hit like mules, are perfectly willing to stand and trade and wear 4 oz gloves is anyone really suprised with the ending...The margin for error in MMA is much smaller than boxing..smaller gloves, no standing eight count, if you get rocked it is much harder to survive the round than in boxing.
