Default UFC Flooring

Have you noticed all the slipping on the painted logos on the flooring in the octagon? I was watching the 3rd fight between Chuck and Randy and saw the slip that put Randy in a bad position so that Chuck could take him out. I know that they make money from the logos...but it should not have an effect on the outcome of a fight.

What do you guys think? What can they do to make a change?

Dyed mats not screened ones. Costs way more to dye sub canvas and does not look anywhere near as nice and shiny but that's the rub now isn't it. They'd have to invest some money it the process as there is likely not a lot of use outside UFC and Boxing for working in material that wide but as an in-house development project it would definitely be to the fighter's advantage but this is a commercial venture as much as a sporting event.

Since Seah Sherk spent his time installing wood flooring during his absence from the UFC, he could probably install a very manageable floor for them (just joking).
