Why the UFC owners dont buy more "exotic" organisations?

[ehxsur]

as antichamber to scoot prospect from all over the world? Why they don't buy the biggest organisation in every big potential market like China, india, Japan etc?

So we will see more fighters coming from all over the world, could be cool to see more asian/indian fighters using judo or muay thai

For europe they have cage warriors, usually the champs of the cage warriors have highly chance to end in ufc after few title defense

We get Conor as european superstar from Cage Warrior, Bisping also, and many other

 

[revoltub]

I think One has that covered

 

[Memeojima]

That would be a monopoly

 

[Willy Knuckles]

 

[Post 2 Decision]

Not profitable

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

They're trying to make it look like a sport, and we Sherdogger's are the only fans of truly exotic brutality

and speaking of exotic, pardon Joe, Trump!

 

[Marko Polo]

They can do that anyway without having to own the orgs. It’s called brand value and having a company that fighters want to be part of.

 

[jfrito]

And Joe Exotic as Promoter (after Trump pardons him). Let's get ready to gruuuumble.

 

[chance mccoy]

They are in massive debt

Outgoing beta.

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

Outgoing beta.

Now carry my purse, bitch!

Most of them are probably run by shady promoters and a financial disaster with no real assets aside from the fighters which would probably come to the UFC if offered anyway.

 

[HHJ]

Why bother when they can just raid the existing promotions of their choicest prospects

 

[Ladron4sherdog]

Now carry my purse, bitch!

Do that, beta plebian.

UFC is changing their foreign recruiting strategy. Instead of recruiting from these organizations they are paying young Chinese fighters to train full time in one of their UFC Academies. Once these fighters graduate through their training program they will brought on through an Asain version of the Contender Series.

The UFC is planning on building UFC Academies in all major markets: Mexico, India, Saudi Arabia etc.

 

[DivineMind]

Isn't that a bit racist to call people from Asia "exotic"?

 

[GrantB13]

Wouldn't look good for their monopoly case

 

[FIghtxIQ]

Monopoly. Antitrust.

 

[hedidhisownstunts]

is there stripper fighting?

 

[NoSmilez]

Being international doesn't sell. Look at the current PPV market and potential market and that is who the UFC caters to
