UFC has the worst freaking pacing. There is no way this should take 6 hours to get through the card. Ridiculous.

I honestly believe they plan their pacing as if every single fight goes to a decision.
Yeah, they just need to start the broadcast after the first 4-5 fights, and then fit them in when there’s a quick finish.
I like this idea.
They have to because it has to do with the way they do their timeslots on multiple networks. They move the show around a ton here in North America instead of just putting it on a network and leaving it.
That is just so weird to me.
Not that I don’t believe you of course, just weird to think about what are the priorities there.
