Once an agreement is reached between AEW & WBD, all I ask for is the writers who pushed AEW TV deal stories to publish the actual contract from start to finish. No selective leaks or half-truths. You've spent an inordinate amount of time helping a billionaire negotiate publicly.

I discussed where Jon Jones falls in my personal GOAT ranking system and share a few clips to back it up.

An update on #UFC310 ticket sales for T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas: they're really bad. Markdowns are already happening. $1,200 seats down to $1,000. $1,000 seats down to $750. Even with papering, this could get real ugly. The erosion of the Vegas market for UFC is a big story

Sadly, it appears Sky Perfect has joined in with TV Asahi in mass Twitter ©️ takedowns. This means that this page, and many others, will likely not be around much longer. It’s been really fun, thank you for all the comments and for keeping this an almost 100% positive experience.


The explosion in $TKO stock price over the last two days is based on two key factors: 1. Exceptionally low trading volume on the stock 2. Call action on the options chain Throw in a likely Santa Claus rally and it doesn't take much movement to directionally move up/down.

This bodes well for UFC on Netflix, as the analyst notes Netflix, w this success, will be on the hunt for live sports and the ad dollars they attract, with the UFC attracting all those good key demos... maybe get out of your TKO position, and put in Netflix stock.....

Investment banking firm @Jefferies in a note this morning called #PaulTyson a "major breakthrough" for @Netflix and raised its price target on the $NFLX stock.

I spoke with @UFC CEO Dana White to better understand the blueprint he utilized to help Donald Trump mobilize the least reliable demographic in politics, young men.

How Dana White and the U.F.C. played a pivotal role in helping Donald Trump mobilize young men to the polls. nyer.cm/jEFXcBM



The connective tissue behind Uncrowned, Ari Emanuel, UFC, and the Kingdom is Apollo Global Management. Apollo is in the catbird's seat for how media coverage of UFC and combat sports is covered.

Ariel & Uncrowned launch their boxing show today on DAZN.... the boxing crowd isn't too keen on interloper Ariel, though they like access to his audience... After mild initial success in 🇺🇸, Dazn has largely become an overpriced, under producing outlet... barrettmedia.com/2024/11/19/yah…

Did you know Conor McGregor is in the midst of a big sexual assault trial? Basically not covered by the media at all.

Back at the Conor McGregor civil trial. We expect closing speeches to take place today. Once again a warning of content about alleged sexual assault. Follow our live thread here and via the Irish Mirror blog link below: irishmirror.ie/news/irish-new…

Ariel Helwani saying viewers should've known better and shouldn't feel duped by a horrible fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is funny when the morning of the fight he was on Dan Patrick's show telling him Mike isn't any other 58-year-old and "isn't coming to play".

Per Netflix PR, Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight is the most-streamed sporting event ever, peaking at 65 million concurrent streams, with 38 million concurrent streams in the US. Paul-Tyson fight garnered an estimated average minute audience1 (AMA) of 108 million live viewers…

in terms of access, 100%. No more reading PBP and avoiding results. You can watch fighting around the world every single day, and it's all available at your fingertips. But I do miss UFC having a genuine rival.


The state of affairs for #UFC310 in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena and ticket sales: $1,200 cage side. $1,000 floor seats. We're three weeks away.

Thanks, Ari!

A lot of fans are waking up from their stupor after UFC 309, wondering why no one said anything or how they didn't know/understand what was happening. Well, for those who actually bothered to explain Ari Emanuel's vision & business model, the response was "conspiracy theorist!"

When I was in the MMA media I don't think socio-political coverage was a regular part of the beat. Lorenzo Fertitta was also not regularly discussed despite his much more active role as a day-to-day decision maker as compared to Ari. The audience wants sports.

"The Mike Tyson-Jake Paul boxing match set betting records at sportsbooks, becoming the most heavily wagered upon fight in years. More bets were placed -- and more money wagered -- on Friday night's heavyweight fight than any other boxing match or MMA fight in sportsbook…

What part of Dana's whole "I never forget a thing" speech did y'all miss? Stipe ripped the belt out of his hand when he beat Ngannou 7 years ago. Didn't want the BLAF putting it on him. Since then all promotional support is conditional at best. Never underestimate UFC's pettiness

Very weird Stipe didn’t get a send off. UFC can’t be expected to know when every fighter is going to retire, but this was telegraphed. They usually do a great job when they plan in advance, so I don’t get it.
