MMA isn't about having a spectacular KO, its about winning.

got to be entertaining to make the big bucks and secure a contract though

which is [censored] [censored], you shouldn't feel pushed to end the fight just because dana [censored] white will let you loose otherwise, I thought it was about winning, if you show some technique and school your opponents like Machida has its only boring to the drunk screaming [censored] who dont know an armbar from a TKO.

it's not [censored] though. Exciting fights draw crowds and bring in big buy rates, which therefore means more money for everyone else. Why do you think that Matt Lindland hasn't been brought back. Why do you also think that UFC has had to go into overdrive for Promotion of a PPV after a weak Main Event.

Yes, UFC is a sport, but it also needs to be promoted in a pro wrestling style as it does bear enough resemblence to it to merit that type of promotion. Exciting fights keep on bringing viewers back and get people talking about the promotion, so all of the fighters should do whatever they can to finish a fight, and if they can't finish it, then make sure it's a damn exciting 15 minutes
