Here are the topics I touch on today:
Matt Frevola has been pulled from his fight this weekend after a cornerman tested positive for COVID-19, this is the right move, but it does bring up some questions about Fight Island events and testing before travel.
Ali Abdelaziz says we have to respect former UFC matchmaker Joe Silva. Why? Why would anyone who is pro-fighter or, let’s say a fighter manager, respect the man whose job it was to pay the fighters as little as possible?
Chael Sonnen comes to the defense of Joe Silva.
Curtis Blaydes sounds off on low fighter pay.
Dana White says media doesn’t follow up or fact check. I say UFC doesn’t reply to follow up questions.
