I don't watch UFC/MMA, but based on what I see on television they're able to present fight cards to their fans on a regular basis without fail. And this has been going on for many decades. They clearly have very loyal followers who are excited to fill up arenas or watch UFC on TV. It's clearly more mainstream than boxing.
Dana White FORCES the best to fight the best every single week while in boxing it takes YEARS for the best to fight. No wonder people see boxing as a dying sport.

Why do you have such a problem answering simple yes or no questions? Let's try this one more time.- Henry Cejudo, a 36 year-old fighter who hasn't fought in 3 years is the best UFC bantamweight?
- Dominick Cruz, a 38 year-old 12-4 fighter who lost his last fight by ko leg kick is the best UFC bantamweight?
- Dominick Reyes, a 33 year-old fighter that's 12-4 who has lost his last 4 fights, 3 by ko/tko is the best UFC heavyweight?
- Yes or No.
- Yes or No.
- Yes or No.
The reason you're so adamant about yes or no answers is because you're trying to be smart. Context matters. You're also trying to word things a certain way for example talking about Reyes in a 2023 context, using his current age and record, except you're referring to a fight that happened in early 2020 when he was undefeated. Then of course theres the required context that at the time he was basically just the next best challenger in line to a dominant champion, in a division that was fairly stagnant and where the mega fights already happened years ago.
And you arent providing an alternative fight to Aljo/Cejudo because there isnt one. Again, the big fight of that division that everyone wanted happened twice and now there isnt really an obvious compelling challenger that people are desperate so see Aljo fight. Probably part of the reason Cejudo is coming back. If you asked most MMA fans they're gonna be happier with that fight than anything else at 135 right now.
Look bro, no matter how you word things or what examples you try to cling to, you are never going to make it equivalent to how things go as the norm in boxing. MMA fans get the fights they want much more consistently, thats an objective fact.Comment

Because its generally a lower quality product (lower ratio of exciting fights, weaker cards, best fights not getting made consistently, fighters who would not be favoured to win a fight over MMA guys outside of the narrow ruleset of boxing etc) and also the UFC, despite apparently being McDonalds in this analogy, is more expensive to follow.
I didn't read any of that and not letting you derail this. They're simple questions and only someone not confident in what they believe would refuse to answer them. So again =--->- Henry Cejudo, a 36 year-old fighter who hasn't fought in 3 years is the best UFC bantamweight?

Quality is an unknown factor to MMA/UFC fans
It's clearly the Micky D's of restaurants.Comment
