    Not sure but if you're worried and want to see the fight watch it boot leg on the link above. Or just wait a few seconds and watch it on Utube

    I’m guessing this is just trolling, because I can’t see any rational reason someone watching could be held liable.

    I like UFC. I've been very tempted to buy a PPV, but never have. I'm afraid of my back luck. Either the fights would be over in a short time, or I'd fall asleep and miss the main. Wish they were about 1/2 the cost, and I'd be in.

    I understand. That’s your choice. Not sure why you needed to quote me to make your point which was completely separate from what I was saying.

    Its a tough situation at the same time. When so many athletes’ incomes are tied to tv rights. I think it’s said that UFC shares 18% of TV money with their athletes while almost all of the pro sports are around the 38 - 54% range? Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong if you have more exact numbers.

    I respect these athletes’ dedication and amazing skills. I hope they all work it out. A professional athlete’s career is so often shorter than expected.

    I think the main card starts at like 6am local time because of the heat. The temp will still be 108 degrees. Fight island might not have been the best idea after all....

    Ya, I heard that. They said it could be moved indoors, if needed. Not sure how that works thou. I know if I'm Max Holloway I would want it out doors in the heat. No one seems to out work that guys cardio.

    This looks like a good card. Im looking forward to the next time Khabib fights as well. Will be interesting to see if it ends up on the beach or not.

    Khabib's father passed away last week from complications of Covid. I heard Sept/Nov for his match up against Gaethje that's probably up in the air now.

    Yeah I saw that. I believe White said they were just gonna give him his time and he could come back when he wants. I cant imagine though he wont be back for a Nov fight.Who knows though everyone is different. His dad was I believe his coach and hes got enough money he might never fight again. I doubt that though.

    So did they move everything in or just for the prelims. I just flipped it over and it appears indoors ?

    It is all indoors. The outside octagon is for training and promo purposes. It’s too hot, even at 6am local time (for our 10pm for the start of the main card)
