It's gotta be something to do with expansion to other countries, I think.

It's def not the NY sanctioning...that was known by everyone a while ago. Heck, GSP promised Serra a fight in MSG when it becomes legal there.

I wouldn't rule out anything that Dana has ruled out.


When you hide something from your employees and then announce it to all of them as a group, it usually involves a change in ownership of some kind.

I don't you need to announce NY sanctioning to them this way or some other venue or big fight. But its routine to keep all negotiations with potential new owners a secret.

I think it could be a bundle of news brought in part by new owners - McMahon, Mayweather (he just turned down Oscar) and NYC. Maybe an IPO too

Not a way to kick off your first post I'm afraid, lovey. I posted this roughly 16 hours ago.

So it is confrimed the "Big" annocement has been pushed back to Tuseday? I swear if Dana pulls some stupid ass annoucement then I am going to be pissed. I just started liking Dana aging but if this annoucement isn't good then I will never belive a word that guy says.

Yeah and Dana also refuted buying Pride up until the day it was announced.
