Quick question:
How do they determine who gets to fight whom for titles in the UFC and Pride? Do you compete in various MMA pro tournaments for recognition, then earn a spot? I kind of figure it would work out like pro wrestling, where you fight every week, then try to earn a spot on a pay-per-view every couple of months. But does Pride and UFC have weekly fights where you have to try to earn your ticket (and I mean sponsored by UFC/Pride)?
I'm sure you guys know, but I'm as clueless as usual.
