[DIABOLUS]

And they'll be laughing about it from the comfort of their NFL owner's box.

 

[BringCodyBack]

hopefully they will keep their reebock sponsorship

 

[TheRassler]

step 1) preach that "MMA is safer than boxing"
step 2) make a boatload of money off of the expense of the fighters
step 3) cash out before all of the former fighters sue for long term effects.

Theyre in a moment of discussion with Kellogs and General Mills I think.

Sports in general are not, that's why you make as much money as you can from them and get out.

This is different than NFL,it isn't portrayed to be safe. Everyone knows fighting isn't safe. Enter at your own risk.

 

[Strychnine]

You all are missing the point...
The REAL question!!??!?
THE REAL QUESTION???!

The REAL question that needs to be asked IS!!!!!?!?!?!?

Obviously there are going to be some bad effects from MMA fighters getting KTFO but where other sports have concussed participants continue to play/fight MMA guys get rocked and it's over. It's the prolonged trauma after the initial brain injury that does the serious damage.

It's why the standing 8 count has been calledt he cruelest rule in professional sports.

 

[ZuffaExecutive]

Nah there geting out because there being offered 4b.And there facing he ali act which would make here company worthless,and there being sued and face a possible fighter association one day.Which would stop them bullying there employees

 

[CrimsonFan]

They wouldn't have gotten an offer this big a few years back. UFC has been hot recently.. Any long time fan knows there's surges of periods where the public is interested.. And dry spells.

I've never seen a downed completely unconscious person be pummeled with brutal strikes to the chin/temple, making their head bounce off the canvas, in any other sport. But yeah I agree otherwise, the standing count in boxing is way worse.
