At first glance, this deal seems to be every MMA fan’s dream. Mixed Martial Arts, on network television, a feat as recent as one year ago was deemed all but impossible. With that being said so was UFC 100, Anderson vs Forrest and Overeem signing a UFC contract. So, achieveing the impossible is something the UFC has grown a custom too.
I now ask those same hardcore fans, myself included that DW eluded to earlier. Is manufactoring plots impossible? What about manufactored fueds or enimies. Are those impossible in the UFC
If you were to ask me a year ago, I would have adimantly disagreed in gigantic fashion. Now, please don’t get confused, I’m not by any means claiming the UFC is a work or that the outcomes are in any way fabricated.
What I am trying to convey is that, a major media disturbution company such as FOX Sports Media Group is soley based on revanue collected from entertainment of the masses. Key word in that sentance was “entertainment”. We’ll get back to that in a second.
