You have to have lodging, a hospital, USADA has to be there, you gotta have all the production equipment, guys are going to somehow have to train and cut weight in isolation before going to a remote island, this is going to be a disaster. I'll still watch it, but this is going to blow up in their face.

I'll say it, Dana is worse than Vince in terms of stubbornly pushing forward with events.

Forcing fighters to train in isolation? A remote island? A complete disaster threatening to happen? Dana White's true form has been revealed: ![](https://i.postimg.cc/44YtNt10/1.jpg) Fatality!

He’s literally doing Animal Crossing. Gonna suck when the only match he can book is between a tanuki and an owl.

Sometimes when someone does something insane, it kind of makes sense the more you think about it. This becomes significantly more insane the more you think about it.

It really does feel like he snapped about two years ago, and has gotten increasing unhinged ever since. For as much of a piece of shit as he could be, you could usually at least rationalize and understand why he would do something even if you vehemently disagreed with it. Now, he just seems completely off the rails

Now, he just seems completely off the rails I think Ronda's first loss is what started it. That was his golden goose and she got humiliated then went into hiding after. Conor lost to Nate soon after and Conor rebounded nicely, but then got too big for the UFC and did his own thing for a long while, then came back and got his ass handed to him by Khabib. Jones with all his problems, guys and girls he tries to throw his all into fold like a napkin when the spotlight is brightest. He is definitely losing it.

Dana has now outdone Vince on the crazy scale
At least Vince had a facility he can air his stuff at and did it as carefully as possible including changing matches like the tag match becoming a triple threat match. Why Dana is so gung ho on this idk.

Is this motherf***er trying to hold a legitimate Kumite?! The Kumite was in Hong Kong, though. It's just that the venue was a proverbial hole in the wall. In this occasion, many have quoted the similarities of this setting with the first Mortal Kombat movie.

So some wild stuff I'm coming across, but I've seen a few places reporting that Jose Aldo is out of his 135 title fight with Cejudo and Dominick Cruz is reportedly stepping in, but nothing is official. 135 is not without viable contenders who have actually fought and won in the last 3 YEARS since Cruz last fought so he must be the only one willing/dumb enough to fight in the current circumstances. This would be for UFC 250 in May which was originally set for Brazil.
Also, despite all the assurances from Dana that he is taking every safety precaution with UFC 249, the casino it's taking place at is a 40 minute drive from the nearest hospital that fighters would very likely need. To put the moldy bread on the shit sandwich, a representative for the hospital says they haven't heard from Dana at all about the event.

So Rose Namajunas is out of UFC 249 for "undisclosed reasons" and José Aldo is out of UFC 250. Now Dominick Cruz is set to challenge Henry Cejudo for the bantemweight title instead.
