hammerva Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 There are bars and restaurants in my area where you can actually have booze delivered to you with food Plus while you might not be able to find toilet paper at the store but there is a ton of alcohol left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tweet indicated to me he wasn't in a good state of mind. Maybe I'm reading too much into it and it was cabin fever, but it was definitely concerning.

Elsalvajeloco Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) People are talking about if UFC 249 goes on, but looking at 250 in Sao Paulo is intriguing as well. So apparently, the President of Brazil is clashing with local officials in regards to the COVID-19 policies. Sao Paulo has proven no different: Quote In Brazil, the governor of São Paulo state ordered 46 million residents to shelter in place Tuesday, with all nonessential services closed. Far-right President Jair Bolsonaro blasted the order, urging Brazilians to get back to work. President Jair Bolsonaro: “The livelihoods of families must be safeguarded. We must return to normality. There are a few state and municipal authorities that must abandon scorched-earth policies such as a ban on transportation, closing businesses and mass confinement.” A close ally of President Trump, Brazilian President Bolsonaro has dismissed COVID-19 as a “little flu” that he could easily survive because of his athleticism. Aldo is training at home with his wife. The same goes for Ketlen Vieira due to Dede closing down Nova Uniao for the time being. I assume that would apply to other gyms in Brazil. Right now, it sounds like Sao Paulo is a ghost town. Edited March 27, 2020 by Elsalvajeloco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AA484 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) I think the problem at this point is less the risk to the fighters themselves and more the risk to support staff and camera crews and what not. My stance on this hasn't changed; it is too risky to be putting these cards on right now. Edited March 28, 2020 by AA484 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, I am wondering if the traveling crew are thinking like the fighters right now because they are probably getting compensated during this hiatus but probably not the same as if events are happening.

TheVileOne Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 As much as I want to see Ferguson/Khabib, and it's not like I will boycott it if the fight goes on, I got to agree with AA484. I mean look at what happened with WrestleMania this week. It just seems like a bad idea to try and force this to happen in April. Plus there's the whole making weight issue. Will the fighters still be able to safely make weight? Cutting weight likely doesn't help your immune system and likely makes it more vulnerable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Quote Ultimately, Serna said the case’s direction depends on whether Jones’ attorneys believe they will get a favorable outcome with the judge assigned to the case, and whether prosecutors believe they have a strong enough case to win a conviction – or settle for a plea-bargain that will save state resources. ”Usually, the DA is happy to waive a jury trial whether it’s part of a plea bargain, dropping it down from a second to a first (offense), or whether it’s because the DA doesn’t want to go through all the hassle and time a jury trial will take,” he said. “It will take a day just to pick the jury because this guy is well-known. It will take a day or two just to try the case, so what started out as a half-day bench trial gets stretched out to a two or three-day trial. Prosecutors typically are more than happy to waive a jury trial because of all the time it eats up that could have been used pleading out dozens of other people.” I found someone to take on this client Edited March 30, 2020 by Elsalvajeloco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana trying to spin it as him doing a public service of providing normalcy is such a farce too. edit: in saying that, Gaethje vs. Ferguson may be the wildest of wild fights. I would love to see it with people in the crowd to spur them on and add atmosphere. Edited March 30, 2020 by Oyaji 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Now that Ferguson/Khabib is off, there's no point in pushing this card through anymore. What now, Dana? He was so publicly obstinate and stubborn about this, and now this fight is dead yet again, proving that it is a cursed matchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
