All the big name fighters have left and UFC has nobody to sell tickets. It's not as if this will drive him into poverty, he's gonna have sponsorship deals for years to come that'll keep the money running in without any of the brain damage. TBH, he'll probably go to WWE.

hamsham12 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Not saying its not POSSIBLE, just dont see it happening especially with how the tweet was worded. " I have decided to retire young. Thanks for the cheese. Catch ya's later. " Doesnt seem too serious to me. Regardless of what these 'close friends' say Link to comment

Regardless of what these 'close friends' say If it was a joke, he wouldn't be getting pulled from UFC 200. Nobody on that card sells, Dana wouldn't pull him off the card if it was a joke...he's going to lose too much money barring some crazy shit from like GSP or something Link to comment

Honestly dont think he cares about who he won or lost to, Maybe he just realizes no amount of money is worth the brain trauma. Unless of course its 10 mil.

hamsham12 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Just seems to me like a blackmail stunt, either give me what I want or UFC200 will be ruined, especially without Ronda or Conor on the card? It'll get half the views of the last Conor/Ronda fight. SheriffJohnBeard likes this Link to comment
