    Dana White: Fight fixing 'huge concern' for UFC amid investigations

    https://www.espn.com/mma/story/_/id/...investigations

    I don't think it's widespread but looks like it's definitely out there a little bit

    Surprise surprise. There's fixing in non-team sports. There are as many fixes in the UFC as in boxing and tennis.

    And then there is legal fixing by the UFC. It's called "judges".

    I've been saying that for years.
    I've seen too many dives on shots that barely grazed an opponent.

    Ufc dont have their own judges. You guys need to learn that these bad decisions always seem to go to the books. You take away gambling in sports they would all be straight up. Unfortunately not sure many would watch any of them.

    The fix was obviously in on the Paddy fight. Judges had to make sure he won. UFC needs him to keep winning

    Tennis and fighting are easy to fix, individual sports. The paddy fight was clearly rigged but the show must go on.
