MattM Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Anyone else feel like the UFC could be jumping the shark with this move? Their jumping the shark moves were Couture vs James Toney, Kimbo, and their original women's MMA bout. The UFC has somehow made it through those without messing up their image and is still going strong. It's more jumping the gun in my view (quick rematch) than jumping the shark (putting all your eggs in on basket). Silva was guaranteed a instant rematch so it was going to happen, so why not strike while the hype is still fresh than wait to long and have Silva start thinking to much about his next career move again. Sure Silva may lose again but at least the UFC gets one more big match for the title out of him than the alternative option. Do you happen to mean jumping the gun?
