Cause he doesn't draw views. The ufc isn't a meritocracy anymore (if it ever was), it's a popularity competition now.

Dana White is a fucking piece of shit. There’s just no two ways about it.

Why does Stipe keep getting screwed on a title shot? Dude has the most hw title defenses in ufc history and should have been first in line, rematch or not

Does anybody know here how much he made? Or what he was going for? No. What do we know? That he wanted to make more (than his fellow fighters) Pretty heavy for someone who ate out of a garbage can not that long ago. Either way a shame for the sport. He could have prolonged that title and give Gane and Jon Jones a whooping now that he was throwing ground game into the mix.

I meant today, and the point is it's a playground for rich Saudis, and Saudia Arabia doesn't have great womens' rights either.
In response to someone making an ethical claim about the NFL, because they play games in London sometimes.

I honestly was hoping to see ngannou get knocked out and eat one or two more punches as he lays there KO’d. Considering he likes to throw a couple of more shots after his opponent is knockout. I even kind of remembering one fight where he clearly knocks out his opponent. And even after the ref grabbed ngannou, ngannou was still gonna try to throw another punch.

His elbows are definitely a lot scarier than his punches.

To be fair, I saw this coming bit it still pisses me off. Pay the man ffs, let him lose his title legitimately, then can his ass. It sucks the Gane match might be the last time I see Ngannou in MMA

Do you honestly think he can fight ngannou after 3 years of sitting on his ass? Are you insane? Chuck Liddell beat some dudes up years ago but I wouldn’t bet on him to beat Tyson fury. You’re bringing up old shit and somehow making the leap that he can do that do a guy who’s 50lb heavier than him? Ok… pray tell why hasn’t he had the title for the past 3 years if he’s so good?

He knows that, but he probably ends up making more money boxing.
And more importantly that seems to be where his heart is. He wants to box, and he’s a knockout artist.
UFC doesn’t need Ngannou, I guess we’ll see if he needs UFC.

Reply to Buffalo Bandits' Josh Byrne scores with a blind, backhand, over the shoulder fivehole shot by Son_Of_The_Empire
It's just called behind the back (i.e. behind the back shot, or behind the back pass). 5 hole is acceptable. I'm not gatekeeping or knit picking. Just in case someone would rather avoid the tongue twister of words to describe a very common lacrosse move. I wish the sport got more attention. It's a great game.

Sorry but your comments were never a threat, so no need to defend.

No probably about it. Unless he’s got the worst agent ever, he’d make more in one fight vs Tyson Fury than he made in his entire UFC career combined
