Daily Debate: How much is too much when it comes to UFC fights on a card?


This past Saturday, UFC on FOX 29 took place in Arizona with a whopping 14 fights on the card.

In some ways, maybe it felt like the baker’s-dozen-plus-one of bouts was a make-good from the week prior, when UFC 223 in Brooklyn got pared down to just nine bouts, in part thanks to the infamous Conor McGregor bus incident.

With nine bouts, UFC 223 wound up with nothing to offer on UFC Fight Pass. That’s in stark contrast to UFC on FOX 29, which had six early prelims on the streaming platform. UFC 223 seemed to fly by in a hurry; UFC on FOX 29 seemed to take forever.

In MMAjunkie Radio’s Daily Debate feature, we asked readers/listeners to give us their opinions on what is the right amount of fights on a card (via Twitter):

Ten or 11 fights, most of you said, is what seems right. About a quarter of respondents wanted even more – 12 of 13 per event.

Check out the video above to hear what our MMAjunkie Radio hosts think is the way to go.
