I have a question,do you think when bigger international fighters come to the ufc ( Fedor,Wandy,etc; if it were to happen )
That dana white would add something on theyre contract to enforce english to be more appealing to the american crowd?not necc be perfect at it,but like cro cop can actually speak and be understood?
Like anderson silva 90% of people hear him and are like wtf,perhaps speaking some english would set more of a connection for the casual fans.
I have no idea if there's precedent for language classes in any athlete's contract. I don't think it's an unreasonable demand, but I could see some athletes taking offense.
