Why is it that the cards for these other org's always seem to fall apart? Guys are always getting, failing a test and in some cases the org just fold's up shop. I know the UFC's stability protects it from the ladder, and the drug thing is open for argument, but what is it about the UFC that their fighters, unlike the other org's, never seem to get hurt.

Ummm they do get hurt all the time. UFC has a huge roster to replace these guys and find other great match ups.

The UFC has no less injuries or issues, it's just they have a lot more depth and established fighters to fill vacancies where as smaller promotions depend more on a few names.

I don't see it as being answered at all, strikeforce seems to lose 2 big fights every card. It happens to UFC from time to time, but the % is no where near the levels we have seen for these other orgs.

I'll bring something new to this topic, can't believe no one is discussing the depth of the UFC. They have better replacements and all around have more guys! Very Happy

UFC cards don't hinge on one or two fights, and thus you don't notice it. Strikeforce loses the same as UFC does.

How many times was the Chuck-Shogun-Evans-Griffin fight changed and rescheduled until a version of it finally happened?

Mir's knee is hurt and can't fight Lesnar? Ok Rampage get's a shot at Evans then. Rampage can't fight either? Ok Machida's in.

Serra can't fight Hughes? Ok GSP is in.

Also, for whatever reason Brazilian Pride signees fear for their lives if they don't fight injured ala Nog and Shogun.

I think the UFC is deeper and therefore has better replacements while the smaller orgs depend more on their big names.
