    With all of these injuries impacting cards, it makes me wonder if its coming to light now because they are insured in their training camps. Before the camps, do you think its possible that injuries were never disclosed because the fighters needed the pay day?

    I'm not knocking the fighters, as if a fighter is injured, he shouldn't be anywhere near the octagon, but fuck this is a strange coincidence...

    I dunno if anyone has looked into it but what percentage of UFC veterans are dropping out compared to relative newcomers or guys with middling records? Are the more secure guys dropping out more frequently?
