Woke up to this ... how did UFC get so irrelevant? Is it their PR machine? Didn't even see anything about a UFC event. Does Covington get a post in Trump's admin? |

UFC is still as popular as its ever been, ticket prices are insanely high, they charge cities to run shows there, and PPVs still require a monthly subscription on top
I don't get it. Who is watching all these shows with no stars on them?

Is it as popular? Do you have access to viewership count? I don't think it is.
I had no idea I was behind 2 events here in Jon Jones
Love to see Colby lose though.

Love to see Colby lose though. | I do actually. UFC prelims on ESPN 2 or FX usually get top ratings on cable after whatever huge sports are going on (like college football and basketball). They are working on a new TV deal that they expect will be even bigger than the current one (which was $1.5 billion and ends after next year)
UFC 310 was one of the lowest gates of the year, but this is at just over $5 million. Highest flyweight main event gate in their history.
They're still doing insane business, and I don't understand it. Is it all just the Trump voters watching?

Jiri vs Jamal was a Good Fight.
Jiri matured alot. He want to fight Alex Pereira for the 3rd time
Merab vs Umar was Good, too. Umar is not ready for 5 Rounds yet.

what do you think Isy should do now? at 35 years of age i think he's 1-4 in his last 5?
retire, try to go on another run at the title, move up to 205 (i don't think he should)

i enjoyed the zhang/suarez 115lb title fight more than the DDP / strickland title fight.
think they're gonna try and do DDP vs khamzhat and maybe weilei vs valentina down the road?

Izzy should retire or fight Paulo Costa again, don't really see much else left for him.
He had a great run, but everything ends eventually.

ya i think it'll be hard/take a lot of time/effort to put together another run.
i think he'd have fun doing karate combat, but i don't think he'd be allowed to.

One of the last actual stars of UFC seems to be done
Soon it'll all be fightbots. Bland tattooed white guys vs bearded Muslims, boring Brazilians, and athletic black Americans. But that works because the promotion is huge, so good for them!

Man I was looking at the next few upcoming cards, and I probably recognized 20% of the actual fighters.
Things have certainly changed.

I've become conflicted with UFC as of late.
That last Jones card was so MAGA'd the fucked out that it turned me off. Dana is really trying to ram UFC's political stance onto the viewers now, and its crossed the line, I've heard others make the same comment.
I want my sports to be opaque politically, I don't want to watch Trump carted out to have each fighter kiss the ring and enact performative fellatio on the mic for the damn guy after each fight.
I don't need to watch a state propaganda endeavor when I'm trying to watch dudes punch each other's faces in.
If the UFC continues going in that direction, I'll continue to lost interest.
