Maybe they could cut their poster design budget

And you know, actually pay their fighters.

I’m probably beating a dead horse, but Zuffa really needs to take a cue from DREAM when it comes to everything outside of the octagon.

LOL

Pray tell what is it that DREAM does better than Zuffa outside the Octagon?

Paying their fighters? Nope.

Promoting their events and maximizing their revenue streams? Nope.

The logistics of putting together cards and giving their athletes ample time to prepare? Nope.

Communicating with their fanbase and keeping them informed? Nope.

Making a cute poster every now and that does not up for FEG’s massive shortcomings in just about every other area of the business.

making posters.

That was easy.

They do make some pretty cool posters.

Although I would argue that Zuffa makes more effective, utilitarian posters designed to actually promote their events (as opposed to the cool collectible posters of DREAM). It may not be flashy, but Zuffa has the meat & potatoes of sports marketing down to a science.

due to different kind of culture imo.

I should have worded it better, but I was talking from an aesthetic standpoint. Yeah, DREAM sucks in terms of doing business; I know. I would like the UFC get rid of that stupid gladiator and that cheesy Nu Metal music they always use. Posters and presentation may seem minuscule, but I think it helps bring in fans and viewers.
