The UFC Is So Bad Right Now (Rant)

- Ayy man listen.. today I give my honest opinions and rant about the current state of the UFC and especially about the matchmaking, promotion and cancellations for UFC 303 McGregor vs Chandler and Whittaker vs Khamzat Chimaev/Saudi card. I talk about how terrible UFC Fight Night Perez vs Taira was, the new gloves are terrible and how UFC's short notice ability to make great fights like Alex Pereira vs Jiri Prochazka proves they could be doing so much better with their cards/matchmaking than they're doing currently. I also give praise to the upcoming ppv UFC 304 Leon Edwards vs Belal Muhmmad. Let me know YOUR thoughts on the current state of the UFC down below and make sure to drop a like, subscribe and follow me on ig/twitter @bedtimemma and thank you guys for 35k subscribers!

UFC is bad because bedtime fc hasn’t been on
He’s gonna heart this comment and pretend he didn’t read it
Because Bedtime hasn’t been hired by the UFC set
Sometimes the best bedtime fc is no bedtime fc

June was supposed to be so good for us then it went to shit in the blink of an eye 💀
So true
Y’all really wanted Conor to be in the main event huh??😂😂
@@slaktheking69 i wanted the press conference more than anything TBH i wanted the hype the buzz; in cage entertainment wise the fights we have now are better but way less interesting overall.
UFC has been garbage recently, it's because there's no love for the sport all Dana cares about is making himself even richer.
Like buying power slap and saying it has more viewers than any other sport instead of maybe starting a kickboxing/Muay Thai or grappling competition like onefc has or something that actually promotes combat sports
@@zachbartlett5123 exactly, ONE is a great example of owners with love for martial arts
@@ChiefTJBallout it’s the UFC needing to make a fight night every week look at the one we just had and the Saudi Arabia one they’re night and day one is terrible and one is good like the next two weeks is going to feel good and then we go to the card that’s not good and it ruins the momentum and it makes the ufc feel dead that week
Its because they have to many fighters on the rooster. Less fighters in ufc more quality cards. There just isn’t 300 elite mma fighters in the world.
@@nasirjones580they are jus wasting potential matchup like the wasted colbyvs garry. Ufc don't have have to make fights of stars but make fights that make sense. Why are they putting cory vs umar when it could ve been cory vs sean for the bw title.
Knew the ufc was cooked when Gaziev didn’t get a title shot
They know if Jones can’t take Aspinall then he certainly can’t take someone who’s been Bloat-maxing.
I hope they make Raquel Pennington vs Holloway for the BMF belt😍
"Holloway is a bum"

Loser has to kiss a man
I skipped this past fight night to go to a party and it was the best decision I couldve made
Did u get laid or make new friends?
Sheesh, it used to be that the other way around was the truth
It’s back. The what it do bedtime crew is back. I had a mental breakdown yesterday when I didn’t hear it.
Everyone here thinks you're insane
I heard it yesterday. What are you talking about?
he said it yesterday dawg u good?
It's ALWAYS been there, take your medicine
@@THEPINAPPLEABLEno, I am sure he did not say it in his previous vid
Unfortunately I've gone from watching every card to just the PPV's and big fight nights.
dana’s self sabotaging at this point
same
Me too man 😂😂
@OneRealGabe you became a casual 😂😂
@@slaktheking69 being bored every other Saturday doesnt sound fun lol. If you watched this card over the boxing card you made a poor choice. Been watching ufc for 20 years. This is the most up and down i can remember the organization being.
Dana really tried to milk as much ppv buys and ticket sales before announcing McGregor pull out 😂💀.
Such a scumbag lol
Too many events, its unsustainable and waters down each individual card
Arkham Asylum Boss fight Back take is such an obscure reference
Shits becoming boxing real quick with only the main event being watchable on most of these fight night cards
Boxing clowns ufc always has
Taira gets outstruck and then wins by injury. Bisping: "Thats one of the most impressive performances I've ever seen"
Dude I thought I was insane for thinking this. They're so disingenuously pushing rising stars purely for $$$$ instead of actually honestly promoting/commentating/matchmaking. Dana "Holy Shit Moments" White has totally poisoned the UFC with this pursuit for more market share instead of actually doing what made UFC beloved in the first place, shame.
You are a mega casual if you think the Injury wasn't intentionally inflicted on his opponent
@@GnosticGnome the mma community is so annoying with casual being thrown around at anyone you dont agree with. Shut the fuck up🗣. Never said it wasnt intentional
@@GnosticGnomecasual are the reason this brain dead fanbase gets to call other people causals, you casual
To be fair, the UFC propaganda cyclops only has a single eye
Dana White has mentally checked out, is effectively retired, and just getting that bag
I think the biggest problem tbh is inactivity of champions and top contenders. It stalls divisions and means less exciting matchups
Each month of inactivity after 2 months (if no medical issues) should cost them 10% of their purse.
@@MatthewMcRowana training camp alone is longer than two months that is super unreasonable dude, the fighters would have extremely short careers and runs if they handled it like that
@@blahhhh1223when you have fight confirmed and contracted and start training camp you are no longer inactive
ya we will see islam fight again in fucking 2027
@@JS-lc4kg idiot spotted, hes literally one of the most active champs in the ufc rn
You and Lucas brought up good points. The marketing and promotion is just so much less passionate. There used to be open workouts, seasonal press conferences, head to head interviews, and even countdown episodes for fight night. That stuff isn’t here anymore
Covid killed all that due to restrictions but they just haven’t brought it back out of laziness. It’s been a couple years since anyone has cared about covid and they still use the apex every second card
You know it’s bad when a 15 minute press conference between Belal vs Leon is the only trash talk highlights we’ll get this year
It’s the new gloves. Ever since 302 it’s been 2 punch KOs in about 40 fights
The new gloves sucks
And still eye pokes
It’s weird, there’s so many stars and good fighters in the UFC rn but it still feels like something is missing.
the stars aint active, like ilia, leon, jon, etc
@@zacknewton1064 how'd you not include conor
@@letsnot.alright326 bc conor isnt that good rn
@@letsnot.alright326Move on brother
the ripple effect of colby not beating leon
My buddy and I have never cut a main card short. It hit like 11 and he was like “yea bro I’m ab to just go to bed” and I replied “I was literally just thinking ab leaving” 😂
Try staying up to 6am to see this bs fight night in the uk
@@saifmajid4029not from there but if i was i woulda just skipped it 😂
This card made so tired 😴
@@saifmajid4029respect to your commitment
I got so bored I started watching tank vs frank Martin
W second half of the fight
I turned on Sonnen V Silva
one fc clears ufc in my opinion. their rule set and variety is so much better. they just need better personalities on their mics instead of the cookie cutter corporate personalities they have currently
Yeah when I watch One and see these children of Thai rice farmers from Isaan who've been fighting since the age of six, I definitely can't get past how they are all corporate shills. And no mic skills at all, I mean what language are they even speaking 💀
they need to ace this new tv deal and partner with someone who will actually push them to put on the good cards they are capable of
They need to go back to Fox
Nah just oil money
I’ve heard that the breaking of the costa curse has its effects
Jon Jones try to fight Tom “What Would it take” Aspinall challenge level: impossible
You would think he would fight him because of “what would it take 😩?”
I had to take a break from mma after that horrible stoppage on Cannonier. And yes totally agree, some of these cards are laughable now. Barely any recognizable fighters or entertaining ones.
Steve Erceg is going to put Cry Kara France to sleep like it's bedtime, TRUST
“Development Night” is actually a great idea for a rebrand ngl
Leon and Belal interact with each other more on your channel than from the UFC marketing department itself
They gotta stop with the same ad 100x over on ESPN plus, or I’ll start watching it ripped
I swear I keep seeing that annoying fucking Snapchat ad
@@cheesestring2032 it’s gotta stop
That fucking looping elevator music tune that plays in the background is straight rape to my ears at this point
It never works. Choppy mess
Who knew putting all the stars at UFC299 and UFC300 had consequences
They have no stars
Bedtime spitting here, been a ufc fan for a long time and it just isn’t hitting the same as it used to
Ngl I’ve never been more invested in the ufc as I have these last 15 months and a large reason is bc your channel. Been watching since like march 2023
On the other hand, bedtime is pretty good rn
How can you not appreciate that taira caused the injury using a unique strategy. That shit was awesome
Ufc probably just trying to do the bare minimum that they have to do until their contract with ESPN expires this year. Hopefully they create their own website, and push the fighters more.
My first UFC PPV (and card) was McGregor vs Poirier 3, I didn’t realize that was the last time McGregor would fight. Also only seen Jon Jones fight one time.
Thank you for making this. The card on the weekend was a disgusting excuse for a UFC event. Absolutely horrendous completely disgraceful unbelievably terrible
The ufc is doomed unless we give Colby the ww goat the winner of Belal vs Leon
Lil bro nearly turned into Marvin Vittori with all this seething
Taira vs Perez was such a terrible card i fell asleep during an event for the first time
Bedtime is the voice of the seldom remaining MMA fans.
He da goat 🐐 no 🧢
Real@@klausmikaelson3184
That fight night made me wanna take a backpack and travel off into the mountains with Minecraft music in my AirPods and just hope that when I return ufc is fixed up 🙏
Bedtime been depressed ever since they robbed him against Pantoja
bedtime fc our only hope
The PFL card coming up is light years ahead of this past weekends card and that’s saying something
This 🥷🏾 bedtime hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂🙏🏾 the Thanos reference was gold
Bo Nickal should be in the apex fr
tbf its only one bad event, every event from ufc 297 to 302 have been amazing
Day 10 of waiting for Lucas Tracy anatomy breakdown video
Ayye man....listen
Petition to make bedtime a matchmaker🙏🙏
i want my sunday afternoon back 😭
I agree bedtime
AUTISM SAMURAI BY 2ND ROUND TKO
1:27 “arkham asylum boss battle backtake” might be the funniest one yet bruh omll 😭
I agree. Ufc is going straight to the dump! You dont even see fighter walkouts because espn is so busy stuffing commercials in whatever creaves they can find. Bad reffing, judging, fighter pullouts, dana covering for his favs. Garbage stuff indeed
“I went outside like E uh like Thanos at the end of Infinity Avengers” 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥💯🔥💯🔥
I fell asleep like 2 times during this fight night ahahah
The main reasons card seem trash is:
-stars aren't as active
-they try to stack some cards so much that they leave nothing to the average fight night
-they can schedule 25 Apex cards a year so they can simply put on cards that wouldn't sell because they lose no money with promotiong and organisation
-they pick and choose which cards will have stars/borderline fan favourites based on who pays the most (look at Saudi, Abu Dhabi, Perth and Singapore cards compared to your average fight night or even less stacked ppv)
this is like the 3rd or 4th consecutive video posted around my lunch break bedtime got me
For the last 4 years I was deep into ufc starting from UFC 249, haven’t really cared enough to keep up extensively, watching interviews, cold opens etc. I used to know 80% of the athletes on card and could tell you a lot of the recent opponents for a good amount of fighters each weekend, now I just wait till Saturday and if I’m not doing anything at 8pm I’ll throw it on
The bedtime Leon Belal beef is so good 😂
That last Apex card with all those little guys was the first event I didn't even PVR in over 10 years.
Why diaz and tony arent fighting eachother is beyond. Absolutely ridiculous matchmaking
Hope ur well tonight GOAT
I honestly like the weekly events even though they're not good
Can't wait for izzy's gifted title shot lmao
face to face interviews is a ripper idea, would be good to see more of the fighters and their interactions
On top of all your valid statements. What is driving me NUTS is how Slow & far apart the UFC is. There's Zero Momentum! It's all cause they only have a handful of dates for "Big event PPVs" Even if they have in shape, motivated athletes who want to be active, they aren't utilizing the potential that is right in front of them.
Face off interviews would be fire
Quiet as a mouse, hairy as a yeti, this new Bedtime upload, got me hot bothered and sweaty.
We need tournaments for unranked fighters... We need a point system! We need to know what we're watching.
I need something to listen to while I put my socks on man wya? i’m already otw to work
We're at the part where the ufc is breaking its own beak right now. By the time 304 comes around, it will be reborn
I had stopped following the UFC somewhere in 2021. Prior to that I was watching every fight night, every ppv, was following media interviews, etc. I started following it again 2-3 months ago. Inbetween I would look at the results here and there, I'd look if there had been any interesting KOs and similar stuff but I didn't watch the events. And I just feel like it was better before. Idk why, it just feels like that. There are some fighters rn that seem to be borderline carrying the organization for example Alex Pereira. But the biggest difference is the lack of title defenses and the amount of lowkey bad cards that I've been seeing. This one for example, UFC 302 was terrible other than the main event pretty much, UFC 301 was bad, etc. And for the champions, I don't understand why everyone just wants to fight for the second belt. What happened to title defending or becoming the best in your division? Why do fighters think that winning one more fight at a higher division no matter who your opponent is means that you're suddenly the best fighter ever? I miss the time when champions showed their dominance through defending their belt by beating top contenders and proving that their champion status isn't a fluke.
Flukas Glazy vs Bedtime to save the sport🔥 DO IT DANA
It’s because Endeavor is a publicly owned company, so they’re legally obligated to earn shareholders while spending as little as possible for higher margins. It’s no longer Dana’s baby. That’s why PowerSlap and DWCS are when he’s most passionate.
You're right bedtime, you're right
thank you for making this video i thought it was just me
The UFC now compared to 7-10 years ago is a hugeee difference. I used to stay up till 5 am for fights and now i don't care enough and just wake up to the results
This past fight night is the first time I ever made the decision while watching a card to shut it off and go to sleep
Ive been getting super lucky recently ive only been watching every other ufc event for the past month or two and i seem to always watch the good ones and miss the bad ones
They've got an ESPN quota to meet so you're going to get shit matchmaking like this
I've been feeling the same thing these past couple of months. I ended up either going to bed part way through or just skipping out on the past three events entirely. There was another one earlier on in 2024 that I just dipped on too cus it was so boring but can't remember which one. The point is, I haven't missed an event in years. I always watch the cards front to back. But there have just been so many terrible cards this year filled with WMMA and contender series tier main cards that it just doesn't feel like I'm missing anything when I get bored and just tune out now. I think something has happened with the matchmakers. Maybe that random guy they hired has been given way too much free reign but idk something has changed.
as a combat sports fan
Boxing is so clear of MMa recently lol, usually i prefer UFC, but this year boxing been better
It's just unfortunate only like 5 boxing events per year are acctually good, and even then you're only there for the main event and maybe a co main here n there. But yeah I'll give it you boxing has been good this year not sure if it clears UFC though.
More than 5 this year lol, the main events from boxing overall clear mma's this year@@EliteMMAv2
@@ahwmahwm5533boxing has been in Fire since 2022 but mma fans don't want to admit it
They just need to end apex cards, no crowd, no excitement and dogshit fights and they someone keep getting worse cards every time they go back there
UFC rn is just like WWE in 2015. We were seeing highest of highs and lowest of lows in a single pay per view. And WWE is on it peak rn.
I honestly enjoy MMA youtubers more than the actual fights
the UFC is not doing Face to face sitdowns because Dominic Cruz was cooking everybody lmao
Last event got me paying attention to Flukas' yap session about fighting monkeys
1:27 Arkham Asylum level back take 😂😂
Wtf bedtime sat on a bench 😮
3-2 record in the UFC is fucking absurd. Jesus Christ where did Dana find that girl ?
always sucks when the card is a bit mid and you sit there like : \ afterwards, but mad agree that they can be so shit sometimes but crazy good at times too
You and me are on the same wavelength, Bedtime. This company's extended roster is just rotten, and none of them can finish each other, especially with these new gloves. I started doing laundry instead of watching and I kept doing chores afterwards, it's more rewarding than watching this rancid show, and now this rancid promotion.
We need that Bedtime x Rigo debate
we have entered the dark ages after 300 and we won’t get to the renaissance till bedtime kos jones with a turner green type stoppage
It’s because we need Flukas glazy vs bedtime
Nah UFC will be redeemed when Belal and Blaydes become champs at 304 and then they will both announce that they are signing to Bedtime FC. I predict these tings like I'm using a crystal ball TRUST 💯💯💯💯
Arkham Asylum reference was elite, yall don’t know ab that bane boss fight
What y’all know about the Killer Croc boss fight???
@@bedtimemma shit gave me nightmares as a kid especially the death cutscene at night 🤣🤣
Honestly most ufc lately has been so hard to watch. I fall asleep or just get tired of decisions for every fight. You’re right you get a good one spread out in between so many boring fights. Alex stepping in for Connor idk how I feel about it. Like we just saw him twice in the last few months it seems. Maybe better gloves and something to fix the grappling that goes nowhere for 5 minutes. If there is a way to fix those and also make better matching it would be great to watch. 😢
They need to do more to promote the champs and likeable fighters
