I posted earlier today how White allowed one of his fighters to make pro-Hamas statements after winning his contest at Saturday night's UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi. And it wasn't mere coincidence that the event was held in Abu Dhabi because some of White's fighters are forbidden by the US State Department to compete in the US because of their ties to a Muhammadan Chechen politician who is providing aid to Vladimir Putin's war against the Ukraine. So changing the venue to an Arab country sidestepped the State Department ban.
White's next challenge will be convincing the UFC's beer-buying audience that the gang at Bud Light are really are a bunch of swell folks (and transsexuals are okay people, too).
Nah, he got a great deal somewhere in there.
Even including the May dividend, AB stock is nearly down 19% since the beginning of April 2023. The stock had leveled off to around 15% down during the summer months, but it has since dropped again in the past five weeks. I wonder how much of this deal will turn around sales and the stock’s bottom line.
Instead of fighting, there will be ballroom dancing.
I am sure Bud paid the UFC a lot of money.
Gay cage matches?
The first rule of Fight Club is we don’t drink Bud Light.
