RE: UFC 313: Well that was (mostly) shit
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
The reality is there are only so many fights one can put on in any one year so the majority will be mediocre at best. I know the top boxers do one or maybe 2 fights per year and have no idea how many a top UFC fighter will be expected to do. I guess Dana White must have this stipulated in their contracts.

Outside of whipping posts like Cowboy Cerrone it is normal for UFC fighters to do 1-3 fights a year, with 3 being quite rare. There are so many fighters that they don't really need to do more than that but once someone catches fire in the eyes of the crowd they get bigger paychecks and there is a lot of pressure on them to perform more frequently. I can't think of anyone that fought "as often as they were offered" that ended up doing well overall.
