Around SBN: UFC 146 Results: Junior dos Santos TKO's Frank Mir

Fight of the Night decided by a fan vote now?


I just saw on the PPV that the fans will be voting to see who gets the Fight of the Night bonus tonight. If that's the case then does that not mean that nobody on the undercard has a chance of winning it unless their fight gets shown between fights on the main card?

Doesn't seem fair at all. I guess it will stop people complaining about Dana's choices at least. I guess it's worth trying.

I would be a fan of doing this for all the awards

if they made the undercards available somehow

Forget it Donny. You're out of your element.

It would be pretty neat if you got an online voting ticket for watching the undercard fights

Then only the serious MMA fans would be voting, so you’d filter out the uneducated opinions while avoiding the biases of DW’s choice.

Sort of the best of both worlds.

If I were in the UFC, I'd befriend a computer hacker asap...that's a lot of scratch

It would be very simple

Depending on the authorisation process, would just a lot of IPs probably.

Crappy for up and comers because the drunk casuals will only vote on names they recognize.
