    The writing was on the wall after the reebok deal a few years ago.

    Yep it's time to cash out.

    Their cards have been stacked last 6 months now. They went through a lean period about 2yrs ago but Rousey and McGregor have helped recently. They know that won't last for ever.

    Lesnar's comeback is a stunt he won't fight.

    It will be interesting to see how the UFC now expands throughout Asia.

    It's obviously their next step and probably why the Asian buyers are so keen to buy.

    UFC is an unsustainable model because MMA is too hard on athlete's bodies. You can't make any stars when they have such short careers. I hesitate to call MMA a sport.

    Cashing out to buy their yachts, the mug fighters don't get a dime of it of course.

    The mug fighters would be packing boxes at Walmart if there no UFC in the first place.

    The next step is for the Fertitta's to use the cash to buy into the Oakland Raiders, build a new stadium in Las Vegas and move the team to Nevada.
