    He can keep him making a living but stop him from permanant brain damage; he flat out said he would still be paid.

    A guy who appears to have had his chin broken and reflexes slowed is a danger to himself if he is fighting, long term brain damage is no joke.

    You are contradicting yourself, if he only does what is best for himself he would tell chuck "yea, your fighting Machida for the title" because he is still the single biggest seller in the UFC. What he is doing for is best for Chuck, not Dana.

    Pish. Why doesnt he stop Silva Nog or Coleman from fighting? They've got more mileage on them than all the horses in the grand national. Puhlease. Spare me this fortune cookie bull****. Reckon he'll let Chuck leave (assuming he still wants to fight) for a rival org - Affliction? Nah didnt think so..

    Because he isn't best friends with them, he is with Chuck. If you are going to criticize him for an example of his policy with aging fighters, the example to be used is coleman, silva, or nog, not Chuck.

    At some point Chuck will either have to retire (likely), fight in the UFC (unlikely if Dana doesn't want it to happen), or have his contract bought, terminated, whatever, and Chuck would go fight somewhere else (highly unlikely).

    Fighters are at a huge risk during a normal situation, in a situation like this where the fighter whos game was based on reflexes, not getting hit, and haing a good chin, loses those 3 things, the risk really more a matter of when, not if.

    If you were Chucks friend what would you tell him to do?
