Dana White Says All Main Events To Be Five Rounds Following UFC on FUEL TV 1
Posted by Larry Csonka on 02.16.2012



- Dana White spoke about all main events being five round fights following last night's UFC on FUEL TV 1 event, here are the highlights…

On Ellenberger vs. Sanchez Not Being 5 Rounds: "Already thought and done. I'm actually pissed at myself about it, so yeah."

On Future Main Events: "From this day forward, as we speak right here, right now today, every fight that is a main event that is not a title fight will be a five-round fight."

Will FUEL TV Be Happy With Five Round Main Events?: "I can do 33 rounds on FUEL TV if I want to," White said. "FUEL TV can't get enough. We blew it tonight. It should have been a five-round fight."

I like Dana White...but I do think he and the Fertita brothers are treating fighters like workers in a third world sweatshop.

That being said, I respect anybody who cops to a screw up, with no excuse making.

Sweatshop workers don't get comprehensive health insurance or sponsor pay or locker room bonuses on top of their regular pay. Maybe the lower tier fighters don't get paid enough, but they do start seeing that money once they climb up the ladder.

But for every Sanchez vs. Ellenberger there's a Davis vs. Evans that is a total fucking dogshit 5-round fight.

I was pretty suprised that it wasn't a 5 round fight, as I too thought they already said all main events will be 5 round fights.
