Make the UFC less boring: electrify the octagon

I’ve often remarked that the best way to enliven a boring fight, Randy Couture vs. Brandon Vera, for example, would be to electrify the cage. Run a few thousand volts, whatever they use for cattle fences, through the chain links and suddenly there’s a lot more action in the middle of the octagon. The mat would also become temporarily electrified during prolonged lay-and-pray. ShockFights, which is kick boxing with Tasers taped to your fists, is a step in the right direction.
