It doesn't matter whether you agree with that or not. What counts is the fans, if it wasn't for them the promoter wouldn't sell any tickets . If no tickets are sold, no fighters get paid!
If you're a professional fighter the main requirements of your job are to make weight and put on a good show.
More fans = More tickets sold = Better purses for fighters

See, that's what I came into this thread thinking. But if it put the pressure into stikers to learn proper ground skills. Would that not make the fights exciting - if they could get out without the refs help -
