While you do make some good valid points Prawney, I don't mind the 5 round fights that much. The fighters who are main eventing in them are really 1 or 2 steps from a title shot of their own, and it would be a good tune-up when they do get their 5 round championship fight.

And with the Shogun vs. Hendo fight, if it would have ended after the normal 3 rounds, Henderson would have won easily and no one would be calling it one of the greatest MMA fights of all time.
