Took to long to happen, but it is a very good thing.
Quick someone name the top 5 fighters not in the UFC after the merge.
Its great to have the best in one org.

Still plenty of great fighters outside of zuffa...but if you don't bother to pay attention which you vowed not to do about a year ago farmer, all the best will be in the UFC in your eyes.
All these fighters coming over and yet i can't remember the last time the UFC was so disinteresting. I blame Jones.

That's what 3 guys ranked in the top 10 in their divisions.
The point I'm making was back in 04 the UFC had like 60% of the top 10 guys. In 07 they purchased Pride and had like 80% of the top 10 guys. Slowly, but surely they keep adding the best. They have at least 95% of the top tier guys.

I vowed not to pay attention? I think I probably said its too hard to keep up with all the minor orgs when the UFC has the biggest talent pool by faaarrrrrr.

It all depends on how much attention to detail you're willing to give.

Bigger talent pool doesn't disqualify the talent not within that pool from being talented. The majority of UFC fighters are worse really then the group I listed, UFC is, and at the same time is not, full of killers.

Interesting truth in that.
I think it has more to do with JDS ducking Glover.

I'm a grown man with a job and family now. I can't wait up at 3am and watch a stream of some GP in Japan anymore. Plus the UFC has more cards than ever.

Well then you shouldn't be quick to discredit what you are unaware of.

Ok name the # of top 10 guys outside of the UFC and name how many there were 7 years ago. Tell me if the orgs outside the UFC have more or less talent.
I don't get why you and Kings are so defensive about the UFC gaining more talent = Farmer hates non UFC fighters and he's a dumbass because he doesn't know how great Patricky Freire is.

Just saying, if you admittedly don't know about something, why bother speaking on it?
