Did UFC Stop Caring What We Think? | SiriusXM | Luke Thomas


Was 2018 the year the UFC and its president Dana White stopped caring what we think? According to an article by Ben Fowlkes at MMAJunkie, it just might be. From moving UFC 232 last minute to accommodate Jon Jones’s situation to placing domestic abuser Greg Hardy on the same card as domestic abuse victim Rachael Ostovich, UFC took both of those issues in stride despite blowback from fans or media or both. Was 2018 the year they stopped caring about criticism?

In this clip from my radio show, I give a couple of reasons why that might be true.

  1. As long as they keep putting cards together like 235 we will all still buy in, let's be honest

  2. The Jon "The Cheat" Jones was the straw that broke the camels back for me and the UFC. Fuck Dana and Joe Rogan and company. Ethics shouldn't have a price. It cost them this one person ever paying for a PPV fight again.

  3. they haven't cared about criticism from the hardcore audience for years.

  4. Did the UFC ever care? I don't think so, they screwed there own fighters since the begining, they don't give a flying f*ck about the fans.

  5. We already live in a world where companies and institutions don't, for a lack of a better word, don't care about the media's coverage of them.

    If you didn't know this already, look who is president, despite 90% of media coverage of his is negative.

  6. Luke, I feel like you need a gumball machine in your studio… And maybe one of those stuffed animal claw machines
