MMA is great how it is, so Vince isnt gonna ruin it. Besides Vince is just getting into this for the money, I guaren DAMN tee that he is gonna be like the fertittas and never be seen, while Dana still runs the show. Besides WWE marketing and promotion is way better than what the UFC currently has. It was like PRIDE, which the hardcore fans loved. I actually hope this is true. UFC will still be the same, but with a tune up.

WAR WWE FUSION WITH UFC!!! SHAW IS GOIN DOWN!!!
i am COMPLETELY NOT a pro wrestling fan, never ever was never have been. i think its the dumbest thing on this planet.

however i believe that you could be right. i dont think vince would have much to do with the actual setup that the ufc has. its already the most professional mma org out there and it has some of the best events and promotions out there as well.

i think he would use his money and power worldwide to help globalize mma, and hes reallly good at promoting shit so i think it could be good for the ufc in the long run.

they reallllly need to keep vinces name out of it as much as possible though if they want to be covered on espn and what not... im not sure his name brings legitimacy to the sport lol

If this is true, it is not good for MMA.

I hope Vince McMahon stays away from the UFC.

He played a couple years for the Panthers. Was a good special teams player.

and thats why dana would still be the Public figure head, Vince would just be on a board of investers.

I hope this is false, because having Vince near MMA will only hurt the legitimacy of the sport.

I agree. This is most likely way over hyped. Dana is always making "huge" announcements and I never felt like they were really any big deal.
