During the UFC event in London on Saturday, Bo Nickal suggested a huge change in the way in which the promotion carries out its events.
In the UFC London Main Event on Saturday, former Welterweight takes champion, Leon Edwards against Sean Brady, with Edwards who wants to return to title conflicts.
Outside the main event, the rest of the card is not one of the strongest on paper, where there are only four other ranked hunters at the event.
And with that one of the smartest prospects in the entire sport, Bo Nickal, has proposed a drastic change in the way in which the promotion carries out its events.

Bo Nickal suggests that UFC events start with the strongest fight
Not long after the start of the event, Nickal suggested that the UFC started their events with the strongest fight, instead of leaving the best fight until the end.
“Here is an idea for running an event … Start the night with your most exciting, most expected game! Build at the end at the end of the competitive competition,” Nickal began to explain in a post on X.
“The UFC and other sporting events are doing wrong. Have your best match of the event on the Prelims! Smart,” he continued.

In the past, Nickal has received criticism for his fighting that are so high UFC maps, especially for UFC 300 when he took on Cody Brundage, which was part of the main map.
Of course the statement of the 29-year-old in questions from fans, where Nickal tried to defend his idea.
“It's a great idea! Ncaa Wrestling does that tonight. Look live on ESPN!” Nickal responded to a fan who told him that his idea would not work.
Bo Nickal Set for the most difficult fight of his UFC career
From a unanimous decision victory over Paul Craig on UFC 309, in which the majority of the UFC fan base called him 'overestimated', Nickal is now ready for the most difficult test of his career to date.
On May 3, when the UFC lands in des Moines, Nickal takes a promotional newcomer, Reinier de Ridder.
The last time -out of the Ridder fan favorite, Kevin Holland in his UFC debut, who came in as one of the biggest signing sessions for promotion in recent years.
A victory against the former double championship would certainly place a lot of criticism around Nickal in bed and would show that he is a potential future champion in the 185LB division.
