The UFC has brought the UFC into the public eye by starting a reality show. THey in no way have helped out MMA, only themselves. They have stated before that they won't join with any other promotions and wont sign open contracts. Every single other organization out there is under some type of alliance which allows fighters to compete in other organizations.
The UFC needs to open their doors to other promotions fighters/champions to compete against their fighters and vice versa, otherwise we will wind up with th boxing alphabet soup champions like Reaped said.
