username Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Having a guy with a potentially deadly infection go through a weight cut is... very bad. I feel like a lot of the people nowadays talking up safety being most important are just paying lip service (that is a much larger issue that doesn't really belong just here), but if UFC are truly being honest about wanting to do the best they possibly can they gotta change their procedure now. Jacare should have been pulled on Wednesday as soon as he indicated he had close contact with an infected individual, and so should anyone else fighting for UFC who is in a similar position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I guess my question is, why was Jacare at weigh-ins and doing staredowns? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Jacare's not the only one that tested positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) Dave Meltzer said on his show today if this was any other company, the show would've been shut down and that many other commissions would've shut it down. He also called the Florida commission lax and irresponsible. Edited May 9, 2020 by TheVileOne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) Feel the same way about this show as I did WrestleMania XXXVI, it shouldn't happen. Two stubborn promoters. Coronavirus is a killer. Not worth the risk. Edited May 9, 2020 by The Natural POS Phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Supposedly the same hotel for UFC is being used by AEW. So that isn't encouraging. Frankly given that they want to run shows every other week or 3 to catch up with this alleged ESPN requirement it is going to happen at least once a show. It is the new normal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Considering, provided everything does move forward today, I will probably order the show, I'm not going to be the one to advocate shutting it down. But there are definitely things Dana White and UFC have to answer for here. Up to them to deal with all that public scrutiny. I just pray that this is the worst of it and no one else gets sick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn’t a lawyer know better than to comment on something that would be a violation of HIPAA laws without any proof? Especially considering the person in question is talking about a well known public figure. Yet we can all safely say if it was a member of one of your beloved Houston sports teams you’d not post it period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 Given that Cormier was six in 85 living in Louisiana and Jake was still in Mid-South, that's probably more than accurate from Helwani. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 I imagine without the Jacare/Hall match, the early prelims would start 7 est. However, my TV listings have it starting at 6 eastern. Maybe that's going to be the pre-show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hyped to have fights back! Looking forward to the return of the greatest Dominick Cruz and a great matchup in Esparza/Waterson, 2 of the best. Whole card looks like it should be a good one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Am I hallucinating or did I see Rogan doing an in ring post-fight interview (and without a mask) and then shaking hands? They came up with some neat CGI and that's what it was right? RIGHT??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 He said everybody is being a pussy, that everybody was healthy and there's no reason for social distancing at the event. This was before Jacare's positive test, lol. Libertarian to the core, bb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
