With the recent pandemic happening and the UFC likely attempting to do events in Florida, do you think the other promotions will do the same?
The Euro series is pretty much fucked for Bellator, so this would create much better cards as they will not be able to rely on cheap local talents for their shows. Arenas won't be in full swing for a long time. However, I doubt Coker will attempt this, but we'll see. DAZN could force them into doing shows per their deal. The selfishness in me sees the very stacked Bellator cards that could result in this.
I could see the PFL coming back as they too have a deal with ESPN, which plays a factor in the UFC doing shows during this time. They didn't make a huge chunk of change from their live gate anyways.
