News Tony/Khabib STILL ON April 18 even Russian borders closing (#1 B.S)

[clownin]

"It literally just happened to us again today. I woke up today and Khabib Nurmagomedov is in Russia and they just shut down all travel in and out of Russia."

"So I literally told everyone of these guys to go f*ck themselves and I’m not telling any of them what I’m doing, where I’m doing it but know this — the fight is happening on April 18, some where on planet f*cking Earth and when you need to know, I’ll let you know.” - Dana White

[JustOnce]

For the first time in my life, I will believe in Dana Fucking White.

The least credible person in MMA world. Because I want to believe.

 

[DarkneT]

I believe him yo

 

[Verace]

Clearly in the first stage of pure and utter denial.

Lol jesus christ Dana White is one determined guy

Imagine if he manages to pull it off?

 

[poor form]

Maybe he should have told Khabib to sit tight in the US. Maybe he should finalize plans and make them known to everybody. I appreciate the effort, but at this point he’s causing more problems than he is solving them.

I’ve given up on this happening. I’m hopeful, but not stupid.

 

[D. Lynch]

Eh, let's hope I guess.

 

[LittleSmokey]

"I'll get on it ASAP President Dana White" ...

 

[The XL]

War Dana

Dana hiring jack bauer to go get khabib out of Russia

 

[neandertal]

Go on random boxing podcasts to avoid tough questions.

 

[DS66]

Expect the worst, hope for the best. I've given up expecting the fight will happen but I will be incredibly surprised and happy if DW finds a way.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Its all a ruse to keep the media talkiing about UFC.

 

[Juan Bombadil]

Stop, just stop. Guys please stop....just stop. STOP

 

[Troothsayer]

We need a miracle.. we need Putin

"The challenges are that every time I get something figured out, I wake up the next day and the world has completely changed again,” White told the Heavyweight podcast. “Everything that I work hard on the day before, me and my crew, has now fallen apart. It literally just happened to us again today. I woke up today and Khabib Nurmagomedov is in Russia and they just shut down all travel in and out of Russia.

“I woke up this morning and the whole world f*cking changed again. So back to the drawing board and we’re figuring this out right now as we’re speaking right now, I have people working on this thing as we speak. Listen, I am absolutely f*cking relentless and I said that this fight is going to go on and it will.”

There ya have ya goofs.

...and here I thought there were some smart people @ the UFC...
...and yet he didn't see it coming? Heck, I knew international travel would be an issue a month ago, when U-fucking-S started restricting travels from Europe.

by now, Dana should just accept Tony & Khabib will never happen. Much like GSP & Silva did not happen.
Some fights are just not meant to be!
