It appears as though Cage Warriors may be following the UFC’s lead.

The MMA media has once again drawn the ire of UFC president Dana White, this time for reporting on a statement made by veteran commentator Joe Rogan during a recent podcast.

As a veteran of 47 professional mixed martial arts bouts, Anthony Smith has seen himself in plenty of stressful situations in the cage. Still, nothing could prepare the UFC title contender for what he had to experience in his home early Sunday morning.

While the world’s premiere mixed martial arts organization is planning to resume operations on April 18, another organization has issued a recommendation that all combat sports be postponed for the foreseeable future.

In a world gripped by a pandemic, the UFC’s future could include prize fights on a secluded island.

The coronavirus pandemic has forced UFC 249 to undergo a few revisions, but the event will nonetheless move forward with a 12-bout lineup.

Station Casinos, which are owned by Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta, will donate $1 million to Nevada’s emergency response fund to help with coronavirus relief in the state, according to a report from Las Vegas-based station KSNV.

UFC 249 officially has its new main event, as the promotion announced Monday that Tony Ferguson will square off against Justin Gaethje for the interim lightweight championship.

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship competitor Erick Silva recently had a firsthand encounter with COVID-19.

It was not a successful weekend for Ultimate Fighting Championship veterans in the sports entertainment realm.
