Do you think Dana is starting to get annoyed with fighters more?

Think about it......everyone is all talk and no one is willing to sign the dotted line for anything but a money fight. The sport really has changed because each year that goes by it seems the champs fight less and less. Dana should just say fuck it and put his foot down.

Put his foot down and what?
 
Dana created this money fight mess.

Dana has to answer to more shareholders now, who want their precious dividends.
 
It’s all Dana’s fault for the way he sold out to make mcg what he was. He never should have allowed that Mayweather fight. It definitely cost the UFC in the long run, just through mcg’s inactivity.

And now everybody thinks they deserve more money.

It’s not a breach of contract to not fight, at least not to the point it warrants a suit. They can stop fighting anytime they’d like to. The ufc at most would get access to specific release related clauses

kinda.

be more brutal about it.

be more transparent about it

market, reward and promote guys who are keen and active

problem is he plays his own games too so transparency isn’t his friend
 
He's probably got WME coming down on him weekly about revenue and sales.. They had a big debt and COVID really hit them hard. I think he's stressed out af right now.

What existing contracts are being breached? They're private contractors, right? Unless they're signing specific fight contracts and then just refusing to fight for no good reason, I'm not sure what he can do legally.
 
Dana would never release him. But maybe they could do a trade .. Bader Lima and like James Gallagher for JBJ lol
 
UFC fighters get screwed with their pay in comparison to boxers. Lesnar only made a million or so for UFC 100, one of their biggest events. He would have earned at least 10 times that in boxing.

Mayweather was correct when he called him a pimp.
