UFC 249 fight card materialises, but at what cost?

NEW YORK - April 10, 2020 - PRLog -- The things we do for money and that applies to all parties involved here. With fighters being squeezed to fight, whether through necessity or the full force of their paymasters. UFC 249 is one of the tiny minority of sporting events taking place during the current calendar month?

Now I'm not quite sure when the sport became more important than peoples health? And in an ever-changing environment that is in constant flux, when we are dealing with an unseen un-quantifiable enemy. How important is it really? Well, fighters have to fight to put food on their tables right, so the sooner we get this show on the road. The sooner these guys and gals can get back to doing what they do best. But as these fighters have zero safety net, something the UFC has fought tooth and nail to ensure. Well, then they really have no other choice.

Caught between the desire to compete, a boss who is willing to pull out all the stops to get their promotion pulling in the cash. And a complicit fan base who just wants to see some fights, right, who is the potential big loser here? The World Health Organisation and National Governments are struggling to contain a pandemic that has shut the entire world down.

UFC sure as hell don't have a clue what they are dealing with, offering to test fighters and teams in the lead up to fight night. When no other major sporting organization is holding events. They manage to strike a deal with the Santa Rosa Indian Community of the Santa Rosa Rancheria to hold what may be the first of many shows in the coming weeks and months.
