Could ONE afford to buy them and if they could, do they even understand
the American fan enough to make it work?

I just hope someone buys them that actually gives a damn about the sport.

No WMEs please

WME/UFC is in the middle of an anti-trust suit, so I don't see them interested.
ONE has a lot of financial backing, I have no idea if they are interested (or not)

Dizz is a rumor monger, I think we shouldn't put too much stock into his words yet.
Absolutely, that is why I explained what I did earlier.
Because he is not a real journalist, he can spread rumors without checking for second/third sopurces

Right they are going to ESPN! I've seen you post about it I'm sure.

Well it would be interesting if fox bought bellator. They certainly have good distribution imo. Could really do a good job
That is very interesting actually
The only issue would be the DAZN deal
Fox might not like that so much programming is elsewhere

Bellator potentially up for sale you say??






Ha
I bet if he had the $$$, he would.
But in typical Mcmahon fashion, he lost a lot when he tried a non-wrestling related business.

The recent WWE financial success is hugely credited to George Barrios & Michele Wilson taking over a lot of the business from Vince.

While WWE grossed a lot, the profit was not as high as people would guess
They never has a $100m profit year & 2017 was about $35m
UFC's 2017 was about 8-9x that profit & they made less over-all
