    I'm pretty sure that when the advertised main event is cancelled, athletic commission rules state that refunds must be made available.

    As for taking the event off PPV, that would just cost them even more money, because they'd have to pay out quite a bit to the PPV companies themselves, as well as satellite time buys, reimbursing event sponsors, etc. Better to take what buys come in, however few they may be. Moving to TV is 100% not an option.

    Earlier on Friday, former Olympic wrestling gold medalist Henry Cejudo had to pull out of his fight with Scott Jorgensen, also for undisclosed medical reasons.

    Barao knocked himself out, it seems.

    He was taking a salt bath or whatever they do, he got up and got out, was dizzy, fell, head hit wall, lights went out, Barao goes to the hospital.

    That has been reported but has also been denied. Take it for what it's worth.

    This is the best example I have seen in the UFC of someone going so quickly from the penthouse to the outhouse. It wasnt even more than one fight.

    Insane how fast it goes

    Outhouse? Most people didn't want him to get the rematch right away anyway, and now he has to win at least one fight before he gets it. Hardly the outhouse, he's still at the front of the line pretty much. Worst case he has to win twice before another shot. Considering his crazy weight cuts are the reason shit got fucked up, I'd say he's still in pretty good shape.

    Dana's not saying he won't get another title shot, that's just Helwani cutting a quote short. He won't get a shot right away.

    I agree. He did not deserve an immediate title rematch to begin with. He got destroyed in the first fight. Assuncao (spelling?) should have gotten the shot up front. I also wonder if there is any validity to Dillashaw's accusation that Barao really didn't want the fight this quick, but was pushed into it by his camp.

    I put it about 5 minutes ago just in time to see that bulldog choke submission which I have to admit was very sick.
