Dana still adamant it is happening. Probably be the most bought PPV ever for UFC so I can see why he wants it, everyone sensible would understand if it's delayed though so it all seems a bit odd. Obviously as @Raoul says though the Revenue would be important to them and seemingly more important than the health of the fighters unfortunately
Could well end up in Florida
Yeah you can see the angle. "The whole world will be watching". If they marketed it right, and sold it at a decent price, it would dwarf the top 10PPV's combined in terms of viewership. Just charge everyone $5 for it and youll end up with 50million people buying it
would fully expect Ferguson to say " i tested positive" if khabib got a choke hold on him
Lool
What an imbecile.
Fortunately there will likely not be much UFC action until when this new issue is resolved.
Be someone else's fault. Like every other incident he's been involved in. DUIs, steroids etc
Just pulsing from too much drinking years ago.

I love how we're all perfect angels here.
Compared to a scrote like Jon Jones, I am a perfect angel!
Compared to Jon Jones most people are. He's a scumbag.
Eh?? Hardly first time he's done stuff like this. I'm all for people making mistakes but it's not like he does minor things. I don't think I'm a perfect angel but I've never but I've never done a hit and run on s pregnant woman for example.
What a bizarre take, the guy is obviously a scum bag
Meanwhile, Darren Till discusses his close friendship with one of Ireland’s biggest scumbags - https://www.bjpenn.com/mma-news/ufc...riendship-with-alleged-kinahan-cartel-leader/
Haha that diversion tactic of "there's people dying" is shameless! It will he something to do with MTK Global it's been going for years that.
People will use this latest Jon Jones feck-up to say how Conor is the good guy. He has done worse things than Jones, honestly.
Anyone remembers back in the day when he went on a press tour with Jose Aldo and made his life a living hell ?

Jones clearly has some sort of drinking problem....which when combined with guns and no UFC training, is the perfect storm for silliness.
I think I've been trapped in the house to long cos I don't know if this is sarcasm or not anymore
Fecking woooooosh, Dana....

It is and it isn't. People will actually use this to say Conor is the good guy, but I also was having some fun.
Fair enough Ive not seen one person mention McGregor in relation to this except you mainly considering he has absolutely nothing to do with the story.
"Let me start over, I have ADD".....Lots of good free fights on the UFC YouTube
Why the feck did he go back to Russia?
He was told the fight was going to be in Abu Dhabi so flew there then was told Abu Dhabi was going to be on lockdown and left to go Russia and is now stuck there it seems!
in all honesty unless it's Tony vs Khabib they should just delay it, even if it's 5/6 months or something (god knows at this point!) it's more interest than any other fight at the moment.
Ariel says Gaethje has been offered to fight Ferguson.
That headbutt to the stomach from Jones.
Seriously though what a sequence of strikes to end the fight. Devastatingly good.Utter domination from GSP. How Hardy did not tap to that Kimura?!!

Gaethje won't do it. He always said that he wants a full camp before any fight, which is why he never jumps in as a replacement fighter...
McGregor should step in.
McGregor would have the same flight issues as Khabib. Needs to be someone like Poirier if not Gaethje.
So we've gone from Tony v Khabib to now Dustin Poirier squabbling with Dan Hooker about who gets to face Tony......in a fight with no spectators.
Dan's just had a fight and now wants another straight away? Throwing himself at money. The dude really is a hooker.
They're selling those wolf tickets, especially the welterweight fighters. Time to tune out until it's clear there is an actual fight.
I think they might just call it off. They probably needed an excuse to do so really and Khabib being stranded is the perfect excuse. I don't think there's a huge interest in it without it being Khabib Vs Tony which will do huge numbers regardless of if there's a crowd or not.
