News the "Arena" isn't ready to hold the event tomorrow the fights will be in a huge tent instead

[BlameTheMedia]

This is what happens when you let infidels fight. absolute haram!

@Tap machine

Why do you seem happy about this?

They are fucking the event up. None of the fights will mean shit.

sometimes a shitshow is better than a mediocre show.

 

[aerius]

Can't wait to watch a event full of slow paced fights due to the heat..

Not being optimised, is not same as not working.

They need 3 days to optimise. Guess how many days between wednesday (day of installation) and saturday

they said they were in the arena earlier today and it was extraordinarily hot, literally the first words in the timestamped video:
"We got our first impression of the Arena today......." the video was uploaded 2h ago 14h before the first fight of the night

 

[Pious Augustus]

the tent issue is to do with leaky roof, not the AC

leaking what? it only rains once every 6 months in there

Yet no other MMA media has reported it. Why ?

Right, but if they are suddenly changing the venue, shouldn't it be directly communicated by the UFC?

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

They need to hire white people to spread disease and kill everyone there.

Why is this in the lightweight section?

84 readers, relevant to UFC, not chat,....

Because TS is making shit up.

 

[Deadwing88]

Have you really checked in on all of them? The sites and social media accounts as well? Today was the first day they got in there, so it would have to be a recent update.

I wouldn't expect anything from BT Sports or ESPN, though, cause they're promoting the event for UFC. Exposing this might be bad PR.

A quick search on Google, and it literally hasn't been mentioned anywhere..

 

[BEATDOWNS]

I just hope the roof doesn't cave in or some such shit. I'd be worried to fight in slapdash arena like that.

I didn't watch the video and TS is a troll. This better not be fake news..

 

[Pious Augustus]

Yet no other MMA media has reported it. Why ?

there are no real MMA media
also from the weigh-ins thread:

Peter Carroll of MMA Fighting, the voice behind the live weigh-in stream says that he heard that the air conditioning unit in the temporary stadium in Abu Dhabi where the event is being held only go put in Wednesday and it takes three days of running to work at optimal efficiency. So the stadium could be hot & humid on Saturday and fighters sweating.

 

[Death By Samson]

WTF is going on here? Is this just a troll or what?

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Because TS is making shit up.

Ban TS

3 days of running from Wednesday = Saturday..?

 

[hickoryflat]

Anything other than a decision and Khabib is going down...

 

[accolyte1022]

Ban TS

He'll just start another shit account, if he doesn't already have one going.
