Weird how all in the last week we've seen 3 of the major Russian MMA organisations undergo serious restructuring
10 years in the making. M-1 has finally won.
So a co-promotion
M-1=Putin ufc=trump10 years in the making. M-1 has finally won.
bro did you hear about the ACB news or nahUFC tried to buy M-1 at one time, then they tried to get them to sign up on fight-pass, but M-1 was having nothing to do with the UFC. But now days ACB is making M-1 look bad. This will give M-1 a firm second place in Russia and keep them alive.
It's laughable to blame the UFC when M-1 were demanding co-promotion, 50% of profits, stadiums to be built, etc. M-1 massively overplayed their hand and now have to bend over and take a deal like this despite at one point holding the most valuable asset in MMA.Back in the days UFC geeks were calling these guys "M-1 Cans" Then they saw Khabib come in, Magomedov, Tumenov, Khabilov and realized how much talent there is in Russia. UFC could have easily co promoted with M-1 back in the days and had these guys over there sooner on top of Fedor too.
Dumbass UFC clowns.
I hate this
