Gane wants to take a few months off for family reasons

[Bojka]

They should fight on the New Years card if they can't do it in Paris.

 

[3nigma]

Time to make Stipe vs Jones for the 3rd HW belt.

 

[Ace70 V2]

Beautiful film.

Indeed

 

[metal7555]

Better not break that 4 1/2 month mark, then again "DOUBLE INTERIM INTERIM CHAMPION" -- nice ring to it.

Everyone here worships PRIDE well the salaries werent as high in Pride, the salaries are fine I also find it cucked to worship another man and to advocate for him to get paid more. You are already admitting he is superior to you in many ways and now you want him to make more $ than you

Salaries were fine? Is that why Mark Coleman and so many other pioneers from Pride are wrecks at this point?

And you got issues you're projecting here. It's as simple as fans wanting those who sacrifice their health for our entertainment to be compensated more. That's quite a normal human, dare I say even healthy, behavior.

And no shit a professionals athlete is superior to most people economically, that's kind of the point of that profession lol. Don't be so sensitive.

Lool, just as Dana was trying to build him up and hating Ngannou for "inactivity", hope he takes more than just a few months off just to piss off the goofball

Ngannou has got to be smirking right now at Dana after hearing how long Gane will be out.

 

[Fight Professor]

Dana should just hand the interim belt to Black Beast.

 

[Oscar Madison]

Put expiration dates on the belts

 

[DebtCollectorMMA]

Just like every other newly crowned champ

 

[Deleted member 263856]

He said he could fight at the end of this year. New baby at home. Seems reasonable. Book it for new years eve. What's the problem?

 

[Paolo Delutis]

Its the belt, once they have it on them they feel secure...

Its actually Dana and Co's fault...

If they payed fighters properly on a tiered system then holding the belt hostage in negotiations wouldnt be a thing

 

[MuayThai101]

It will be fun to see the UFC squirm out of this lol. This shit back fired hard. Francis is smiling now.

 

[ITsallinthegifs]

ROFl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dana: How dare this guy wanna spend time with his baby!!!! what a goof!!!!!!!!! Do you want to be a FUCKING fighter!!!!!!!!!??????????

 

[podsox]

Stipe vs black beast to decide assistant to the interim champ

 

[Herwald]

Just put Derrick back in there against Francis. Gane can bounce at home.

EDIT: Wait! Here's a better idea:

Can this somehow be worked so that Fedor is interim champ instead?

Come on, Dana!

 

[gaffbyknees2]

Uh oh need interim interim belt now lol

 

[morrisondafalln]

There is no interm champ. Dana just said it was a title fight to sale more ppvs. Hes not the champ. And belts dont need to be unified. Since the current champ did not retire. Or require some surgery with a long recovery. Dana lookiny like a jackass right now and i love to see it.

 

[1pedestrian]

This era of champs is the worst ever. Win the belt and then take time off or get surgery for long lasting injuries you put on hold and wouldn't have gotten if you didn't get the belt

I remember when Royce Gracie fought 4 guys on the same night.

 

[theleerygoose]

But is he asking for more money? If not he will be fine.
