i absolutely thought the ref should have called for a stoppage in the second but I feel like she could have had at least one of round 1 or 3

is it weird that #2 vs #3 was a 3 round fight instead of a fight night 5 round? or is that just the weight class/dana

Typically it's only championship fights and main events that get 5 rounds. Very rarely a fight will get special consideration but you can count it on one hand.

I was just thinking about cards without a title defense having a main event getting the 5 round spot and sometimes looking less like a number #1 contender bout than this was, but maybe this would be harder to build a fight night around

I am awful at words today.

I think the UFC is trying as hard as possible not to book main events that could be 5 rounds of wrestling unless they feel like they don't have a choice.

that makes a lot of sense, for better or worse

That's the wrong way to think about it. You could judge fights, because clearly there are NO qualifications required.
