considering no conor no lesnar no jones for a while. dana prob puts him on a under card some time.


no he doesn't

Dana never wanted him in the UFC, his new show gave him a chance

He's an ''attraction'' and Dana prefers attractions than real and dedicated fighter. Newell, Lesnar, conor, kimbo, etc. Dana loves attractions as he turns his company into a wwe circus. This said, I expect to see Newell again at least one more time

I like how you leave off CM Punk but put Conor on there when Conor built his brand/name in the octagon

conor and lesnar were both champions
kimbo wasnt that bad as an mma fighter

of course dana/the new owners will go with the money fights before the more deserving fighters
its what brings people to buy the ppv and generate attention. Tell me if you could generate a buzz with
Dc vs Curtis Blaydes or Dc vs Gustafsson

hardcore fans will watch those 2 fights for sure, but you barely get 150-300k ppv buys
while lesnar vs Dc will probably generate 900k-1.5m ppv buy

at the same time, why would dana not book Khabib vs Conor when Conor comes back
the beef between the 2 is pretty relevent and it would be a huge ppv tbh
even khabib manager ask non stop for conor and talks shit non stop about him

If the UFC gave CM Punk’s bum ass a fight or two they should atleast entertain the idea of letting this dude fight. Win or lose he would put on a show. Obviously he won’t be a top fighter ever but I think he could win a fight or two.

yes CM punk in the same bag.
dana built conor by giving him the floor for two titles shot in short time. He could have done that with plenty of fighters in the past, Bj Penn, Aldo, cruz, ect. conor owe his name to Dana only. see what happen when he is left alone ? Dolly, boxing, touch butt in the park with that dork, etc.. that dork is noting without Dana White, period
