its over for affliction now,i guess we can look foward to the ufc scooping up the fighters they leave behind....which can be a good thing
White must be a full blown idiot. I mean, I know he's not one of the world's great minds, but can you imagine a respectable busniessman doing something like that? Especially one rightly or wrongly associated with a monopoly. Bill Gates doing that with bankrupt sofware companies, maybe?
They were finished already, before the drug test. Atencio only ever said 3 events, was clearly not gonna make it work long term. There was already a deal in place to have affliction sponser UFC fighters as soon as the next show. For those of you criticizing Dana, every last one of those companies was supposed to "take over" or "end" the ufc; you would gloat too if you were better than everybody else to ever try, combined.
They wren even in the same market, one promotes a fighting organization, the other makes clothing and uses mma to advertise. Affliction the fight org is nothing but a giant ad for affliction the brand.
I felt the same way about Rachelle Leah(before playboy) But see for yourself though. She dates Roger Huerta.
I just hope Fedor will get sick of all these failing org's he has been with and him and Dana can come to a compromise.
