Absolutely. I think about that alot. I worry that going to work(especially with what I do for a living) is putting my families life in danger. Lives depend on me being at work but there is that possible trade off that is not being addressed.
WSJ: UFC pushing through to reach event quota, earn $750M
- Thread starter Wild
- Start date
True but where's the repercussions for taking the risk?
People are being punished for disobience. What's Dana's for organizing a large group for profit?
Maybe I'm wrong but I was under the impression ignoring social distancing and isolation was cause for trouble.
That's a big over simplification. State laws also don't apply on tribal land. You could make an argument that once they return home they should self isolate for 14 days, but they've probably already been told to do that and there may even be a law on the books depending on what state they're in.
People seem to want to ignore that the guy checking people out at Walmart is in contact with countless people over the course of a day, goes home, sees his family, rinse repeat everyday. Tony is going to the reserve for one fight, then back to big bear. Minimal interaction with other people, and no fans as far as I'm aware.
You realise the guy at Walmart is providing an essential service right ?
What exact service is the UFC providing beyond selfish entertainment?
USA will be the country that gets hit the worse and this is exactly why . Our greed for money and entertainment keep us the least disciplined in these situations
You realize shit like podcasts are also "essential services" right?
I assume you also realize most people frequenting essential services are just there for leisure, right?
some cold bastards don't think their area of the country should be shut down
not naming names here, but there is definitely one here in this very thread
Lots of views on this quarantine you must remember
trust me
there is one
me, I find it over the top for my region
I wanna see the event
I think all the fighters can make the choice to fight or not
Of course the best of medical will be on hand
hopefully pre quarantine and post fight quarantine and plenty of testing etc...
IMO the show must go on...I would rather sooner than later
Don't hate me fellas, just being honest yo
and I turned full heel on the last page if you missed it
they could do tennis.
Everything else is shut down. What makes MMA, more specifically the UFC, so special that they get to circumvent the laws others are forced to follow?
or golf.
japan has still been doing weekly shows of mma and kickboxing

Or imagine it tony or another fighter gets the virus and their lungs get permanently fucked up and they need to retire. Or die/give to family lke u said
''
Dana White mum on undisclosed location for UFC 249''
Damn that confused me for a good few seconds. I thought Dana's mom had a hot take on the location
Interesting. All Japanese roster or international fighters as well?
Japan's biggest pro wrestling company cancelled a bunch of their shows.
All I know is what little interest I had left in UFC is gone after this and I'm sad to see Jacare's name on this card.
Fuck Dana. Hail Bellator!
