Does the UFC have any plans on buying another mma promotion?
Bellator has some fire talents in Lima, Pitbull Brothers, Chandler, Koreshkov, MVP and not to mention former UFC fighters now Bellator Champs Bader and Mousasi.What other MMA promotions out there add anything to the UFC brand right now? The UFC already has 500+ fighters under contract so just purely acquiring talent isn't something they need to do. They put on average 1 event every week as is so its not like they have any room to promote any more events then they currently are doing. UFC in non pandemic times already holds events all over the world.
I see KSW there.They could buy some international promotions who knows
I see value in Bellator and KSW.Are there any that are worth the value to buy them though?
Wec, Pride and Strikeforce actually had good talent on par with UFC. ACA, M-1, Rizin and KSW are all regional promotions like LFA. If they want someone from there, they just offer them a better contract.UFC used to have a buying spree when it comes to other mma promotions,
They acquired WEC, PRIDE and Strikeforce.....
I wonder if they're interested in Bellator, KSW, ACA or M-1 Global...?
I don't think they can buy ONE though.
Dude guys like Pitbull, Lima, Chandler, Aung Sang, Mankowski, Bedorf, Lee, de Fries, Narkun and Morales are talents.Wec, Pride and Strikeforce actually had good talent on par with UFC.

All the talent from Bellator are UFC rejects that don't want to fight there anymore so no point.
You are 10 years too late, the times when UFC had to kill the competition are gone. They have no competition anymore. ONE is just smoke, no talent there outside of ex UFC guys like DJ and Alvarez
Of course they have "somebody". That Jiri dude from Rizin for example. They are not buying entire promotions just for a few fools that nobosy knows lolDude guys like Pitbull, Lima, Chandler, Aung Sang, Mankowski, Bedorf, Lee, de Fries, Narkun and Morales are talents.
Probably not as stacked as the UFC, but they are a great addition as well.
