      I believe cage warriors did something similar recently with like a 50k prize fighter one night tourney. Their compromise was two round fights (unless a draw then do a 3rd) until the finals, each fighter between fights has to get checked by doctors and medical approval before next bout and no elbows until the finals (cause greater risk of cuts)

    I like the concept of the Apex, and I wouldn't mind if they kept using it indefinitely for minor Fight Night cards. Of course it's all that's needed for DWCS and TUF and that's not going to change. I just want them to put an actual normal sized octagon in the damn thing, the amateurish smaller cage drives me nuts.

    • @ItzSailorChaos
      @ItzSailorChaos หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I love Apex events! You hear the impact of the strikes a lot better and the crazy things that the corner say etc. It's the best view of what actually happens inside the cage.
      And it keeps newer talent and fighters who are not in the top 15 active, which keeps them paid.

    5:49 I’m pretty surprised Dana hasn’t built a development academy similar to IMG where select fighters commit to live and train on compounds - maybe their perks are better visibility for shots at TUF and apex appearances. Could hire former fighters too to keep them employed. Almost like an in house development team . They’d have to qualify and opt in then move on location similar to a contract worker on a big project

      He slapped her back lmao. If you equate that to predatory abuse then the only reason you think it's hypocritical is because it's beyond your ability to understand. Domestic abuse is only worth your pity when there's a victim. Technically, it was Dana White. He hit her back so that weighs it in neither of their favour but if you were as empathetic as you want to appear then you'd recognize the person he hit wasn't a victim. People like you are why women can cause problems and still get what they want just by crying.

And with Eric Bischoff ripping off the NJPW UWFI invasion angle to make the nWo. That’s not even getting into what you’ve previously mentioned before.

The 1st-8th rank in the division should have a one day tournament that would filter which truly deserve to have a title match on the title holder.
