News Top Talent Exodus occurring in PFL

[skylolow]

Genuinely how does PFL/Donn Davis come out and respond to Mix and Pitbull’s statements without looking like absolute fucking morons.

I think that is the issue. PFL went from basically here is the tournament and match ups this year and we are done with planning out the year for the most part from a match making stand point. Now they doubled the roster and have a whole lot of fighters that are above there tournaments and want match ups that matter and the PFL is putting on more events outside the tournament schedule. They probably need to hire some people to deal with talent relations and help execute their vision better since they have much more moving parts going on.

The UFC at one time had around 400 employees(not fighters), probably closer to 250-300 now. The PFL probably has less than two dozen and probably multiple employees aren't around very much. It probably realistic operates with around 10 full time dedicated daily to the PFL. Chances are people are just spread to thin across the board.

Where’s Francis and Jake Paul? All the bullshit they talked about fighters rights and both have gone silent

Everyone having problems should start tagging both of them.

It's as if they shouldn't have cut most of the Bellator employees. Bellator was way too big for them and it shows.

PFL should release all the Bellator Champs and the UFC should pick up all the Bellator Champs and do unification fights with them

I've been wondering what happened to mago all year good to get some clarity think he's top ten UFC material too.

Jon Jones loves the idea of a unification bout with Bader rematch.

why...? lol. They didn't even do that with Strikeforce which was way more popular. Most MMA fans know nothing about the champions in Bellator of PFL.

So what mma needs to have unification fights because the belts in mma are disputed accept Jon Jones belts

Well if Jones beats Aspinall then he can do whatever he wants to

Why? PFL are pretty much a minor org in most people's eyes.

I've never really understood PFLs viewership market. Who watches it? And where is it watched most?

Even hardcore MMA fans in the West don't really pay attention to it. Does it have a middle east following or something?

If you have ESPN+ you try to catch it, as something to watch. Otherwise I do not follow it, just check when on and try to catch if miss them then I missed it, if wife has plans I go with her plans, if UFC she goes alone.

[David R]

Wow, even Neiman Gracie jumping ship.

 

[Koala]

they don't really need more than 12-15 fighters by weight class in their main roster, given that they will have 8 guys in the tournament, maybe 2 subs, and a few guys fighting outside the tournament

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Where’s Francis and Jake Paul? All the bullshit they talked about fighters rights and both have gone silent

LOL.

Franci$ cashed out. He never gave a fuck about anyone but him.

Jake Paul... lol.

 

[skylolow]

LOL.

Franci$ cashed out. He never gave a fuck about anyone but him.

Jake Paul... lol.

Probably closer to the truth than the reality all parties painted to fans.

 

[Lycandroid]

LOL.

Franci$ cashed out. He never gave a fuck about anyone but him.

Jake Paul... lol.

What is Francis gonna do exactly ? PFL can't afford to pay shit, do you expect Francis to open his pockets or something ?
