On the other hand, UFC is making money hand over fist, so they don't really have much motivation to change anything

I'm surprised they are doing so well I can't even remember the last time a card was good enough for me and my buddies to get together and order a PPV. I guess these TV deals pay great cause they put on a show basically every week in some Vegas warehouse with like 50 people in the crowd.

Part of it is because ESPN pays them $300 million per year, and will do so for the next 7 years

And now that they're merged with WWE, they can include the $200 million NBC is paying for their network for the next 5 years, $200 million from FOX, and $265 million more from NBC for Raw on USA.

And the latter two deals are up soon, and they expect to get a lot more next time.

The amount of money live sports get has been inflating every year, but broadcast TV and cable are dying so the next one might have to be a streaming deal.

F1 gets round $90 million a year from ESPN, which sounds low but they broadcast at weird times in the US. On another note, Liberty Media was second in the running to buy WWE before Endeavor got them.. now that would be a weird merger!

no idea, i don't go out / get out much anymore, i just remember back in the day if i go to the casino, or watch the events at a public place those were the type of vancouver characters... i'm sure fashion has changed now, they all probably dress like nba players now

Izzy took petty to a whole new level lmao. When he fell down like he was dead on the mat, he did it in front of the dudes son. In their first match when Izzy got KO'd, the son did that so he walked over and did it to him hahahaha. I was wondering what that was about when he did it, then I saw him in the post fight presser and I was laughing. Kid was crying haha

Berz out.

It's pretty sad that that UFC makes so much money but so many guys need to go to these ghetto ass bare knuckle promotions to make money.. sometimes AFTER retiring.

And Ngannou still hasn't found a fight outside of the UFC. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Dana was low-key paying people off to not sign him just to make an example out of the guy lol

Oh damn ... UFC 289 is like here in town, at Rogers Arena. Just for shitz and giggles, I looked up tickets ... >$300 for Level 3 and like high $400's for 100 ... yikes, who would pay that much ??!!

OK, going to go with Nunes and Oliveira on the co-main cards.

They were going to roll it back with Nunes and Julianna Peņa but she pulled out due to injury.
