    Interesting idea,


    Dont know if I would use a points scoring system, or if thats how the UFC determine the fights they make, but I would certainly look at how they do it. Regardless of name and standing in the game, at least the UFC get the top dogs fighting each other regularly. If I think you deserve a shot at the title then you will get one. You will always have a pool of at least 10 guy's that ya think would always give the Champ a run for his money, so allow these to fight it out and deserve his shot.

    Have to give the UFC credit for that they do try to make the best matchups available....I am not sure if they even really nhave a rating system they use?...Don't know that much about how mthey do things but one thig for the UFC that is different for boxing is there is only 1 champion per division.....Makes things a whole lot simpler?

    Exactly, could you imagine just one Champ per weight in boxing, how much more competitive it would be, and how many more top class fights we would have as they would all be vy-ing for that one elusive shot at the Champ!!

    As far as im aware UFC do not have a points system to determine the challenger, it's simply based on If you deserve it or not in the eyes of the owners of the company!!

    No politics to worry about, simple and effective !

    There is no official rating system in UFC BUT, It's alot easier to make the best match ups here. There is ONE champion, and he is going to defend his title against the BEST challenger out there. If there was a similar system in boxing we shouldn't worry about Haye vs Klitschko or about Floyd vs Pacman, You are either going to fight the best of the best, or get out. WBC, WBA, IBF, IBO, WBF, etc etc paper belts are a mess and in the same time 4-5 guys call themself champions. It would be great if the major 4 sanctioning bodies in boxing merge, but i highly doubt it will ever happen.

    I might be wrong on this one but I thought UFC fighters were supplied to a puyrse contract for s certain amount of fights...EG- Fighter A will have 5 bouts and his contract will be for $100,000.....When they become Champion they get a certain amount of money for a defense or a certain amount pof money depending on the PPV intake or Gate etc....I do know that many MMA fighters make the gross amount of their money off of sponsors.....The better you do the more sponsors you will get I suppose?....If this is the case it makes sense that this is why they don't have such drawn out contract debates....

    Isn't that why guys like Randy Coture had negotiation problems and were out of action for long periods of time they were in contract negotiations....Or do they negotiate for each bout?...I don't know an overly a lot whenh it comes to that side of MMA...I just know that on TUF they are competing for a 6 figure contract and not for one big bout....Plus the UFC offers bonuses for fight of the night fighter of the night etc...It gives guys more incentive....

    Or is just pretty much fight who we tell you and take this amount or you are as out?
