    I had always hope that the UFC would chase legitimacy in the sporting world over an entertainment based product. It would be cool to see bigger pay checks for the fighters attracting more talented athletes to the sport and promotion instead of more Strickland / Covington schtick that catches a headline at the time but waters down the product in the long run.
