@davemeltzerWON Not true for Australia. UFC Freedom 250 was on ppv through Main Event on Foxtel and Kayo Sports. Only first two fights were simulcast on Paramount. Numbered Events aren't on Paramount in Australia yet.
As an MMA/Boxing fan I'm just saying...nobody and I mean nobody wants to see Ilia Topuria vs Ryan Garcia in a boxing match! Or MMA. Can we please just stop. Please? #UFC#Boxing
Just saw the movie "Obsession" ... speaking of obsession. Ariel making an appearance on his day off to comment on Dana white. He just had to get that in there didn't he. I don't think this is even that serious. Dana spoke his opinion and will walk it back.
Dana White continuing to say that Khabib walked away because he got too rich or too famous is incredibly disrespectful.
Khabib’s reason for walking away might be the most honorable reason anyone has ever given us.
He’s said it numerous times: his father passed away, his mother asked him to stop, so he stopped — and he’s never even flirted with the idea of returning, even though the UFC has offered him fights like GSP in the past.
Khabib’s frustration couldn’t be more justified. Dana’s comments on this topic are ludicrous in general, but they’re especially insensitive considering Khabib’s circumstances.
🚨DWCS NEWS🚨

Am I imagining things or did Ariel Helwani not just recently criticize Max Kellerman for this type of glazing. It's too much. Pretty Hipocritical. #mvpmma
Dana White can't sell tickets to UFC 328 despite a blockbuster card bc they hitched their entire wagon to Trump who then destroyed the economy.
All while they continue to outprice their actual fans. Lowest priced ticket is about $350
There is only about 1,300 seats left in an arena that seats about 19,500.
This will be a SELLOUT!
This has to be one of the most unintelligent posts I've seen. #UFC

Nope this is not a great take... The #UFC job is to get Ilia Topuria, Islam Mackachev, Khamzat Chimaev, and Big Tom back asap!!! Ya know, the absolute best in the world. Ngannou could be but respectfully he made his choice. Ariel is just being a drama queen.
The UFC could have had Jon Jones, Nate Diaz, Francis Ngannou, and Ronda Rousey all fighting on cards this year.
Some may say they don't care, but those are certifiable draws. Paramount+ is interested in viewership, and there’s no doubt each of them would deliver.
Now it remains to be seen whether they can close the deal with Conor McGregor.
Ronda Rousey absolutely rips into the UFC’s current fighter pay 👀💰
“It’s why their champions like Valentina (Schevchenko) are selling pictures of their ti**ies on OnlyFans.”
“It used to be that UFC was the best place that you could come in combat sports to make a living and be paid fairly, and now it’s one of the worst places to go. It’s why so many of their top athletes are leaving to go and find pay elsewhere.
A lot of these people at the ground level, they can’t support their families. They’re living at poverty level while fighting full time, and this company just got $7.7 billion. There’s no reason that they can’t afford to at least pay their athletes a living wage and at least be able to match what these athletes are making in other sports.
Why would they expect to get the best athletes and aspiring kids that want to be something into MMA? Why not go into football? Why not go into boxing? Why not go into anything else?
They are bleeding talent because of their short term greed. They’re thinking about the next quarter, they’re thinking about the shareholders, and they’re not thinking about their responsibility to be stewards of the future of the sport.”
