No rounds would be interesting.

I feel like the correct way to do it would be for both fighters to agree to it beforehand ie if you always talking about wanting to finish someone, that would be the time to do it.

It would definitely increase the action in the undercard fights since people would want to prove themselves left and right.

Oh God no. I don't want to see 2 guys that are completely gassed, dehydrated, and hardly seeing straight 12 minutes in to a fight. How do you even score 1 25 minute round? Fighter A looked great 20 minutes ago but kind of a lot's happened since then. For the last 9 minutes it's been lay and pray by Fighter B because they both look like they could use a drink of water.

If this happened I'd buy stock in leg kicks and body shots.

Wasn't there a fight format that had one 10-minute round and then a bunch of 3-minute rounds? Don't remember what it was, but that seems like such a weird rule.

Was looking forward to Rockhold taking Vitor deep... Oh well... Outstanding spinning heel kick KO. KON ftw. Who's next for Vitor? He doesn't want a title fight, wtf up with that?

Bump for UFC 160

ME is Cain vs. Bigfoot Silva
Co-ME is JDS vs Hunt

Prelims are on now.

Co-Main Event starting

Can't see JDS losing to Hunt. Hunt hasn't fought anybody huge in HW before this fight. JDS has beaten every notable HW fighter in UFC (though he did lose to Cain in their rematch).

EDIT: OMFG what a punch for JDS. Amazing that Hunt got back up.

Imagine if that kick actually hit Hunt square. He'd still be on the ground.

Does JDS fight winner of Velasquez/Silva or does he need to fight somebody else? I can see arguments for both.

Don't think he'll get away from this one, bye bye career.
