Q&A

  • What are the ethical implications of Donald Cerrone's use of steroids and his return to fighting?

    Cerrone's use of steroids raises questions about fairness and the integrity of the sport. While he may be able to pass drug tests after coming off steroids, his enhanced performance during the period of use gives him an unfair advantage.

  • How does Ilya Topuria's strategic approach to fighting Max Holloway potentially give him an advantage?

    Topuria's strategy is to provoke Holloway into a brawl, which plays into Topuria's strengths. By challenging Holloway's BMF status and encouraging him to fight aggressively, Topuria hopes to exploit Holloway's tendency to engage in close-quarters combat.

  • Why is Dana White concerned about the UFC rankings system?

    Dana White believes that the current rankings system is subjective and prone to errors. He feels that the rankings are often influenced by personal biases and that the process lacks objectivity. He hopes to find a more reliable and impartial system to rank fighters.

  • What are the challenges athletes face when transitioning away from their sport?

    Athletes often struggle with the unknown and the fear of losing the adulation and excitement they experience during competition. They may also find it difficult to define themselves outside of their sport and to find new sources of fulfillment.
