Are UFC events always on as often as they are right now? It seems like they are on every week.

I got into the UFC back in November. I'm delighted with it!

The number of events per year is has been consistently 42-ish for years. Of those, 14 are PPVs. Basically one per month, plus NYE and Fight Week.

They've been regular for a good while.

Has the quality always been the same? Not in my opinion. The quality has slowly diminished. Not sure if it's due to a lack of stars, a reliance on Contender Series fighters bulking out the cards…… i'm not really sure.

Having said that, this weekend's Fight NIght card looks like a bit of sleeper. Some good match ups on there from the looks of things. Just not too many ranked fighters.

I have heard in the past that in the UFC the best fight the best, is this true?

In Boxing Pacquiao-Mayweather happened 6 years too late, Gervonta Davis-Lomachenko didn't happen. Do the big and right fights not ever happen at the right time in the UFC?

Most of the time, yes. Sometimes, no.

Right now there is an issue whereby the Heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, seems to be refusing to fight in Interim Champion, Tom Aspinal. Although I believe this will be rectified and they will fight once enough money gets thrown at it.
