Apparently that video is from the Jan 17, 2015 fight, and prompted an investigation.
Takes a second, but once you see the response she's given, you can only think, "Equality is awesome!"
That doesn't make any sense at all.The company declined to provide a reason for the closure at the time of the announcement earlier this week, but UFC president Dana White said Tuesday that he just wanted to give the media "a night off."
Oh, so we're doing private gladiator shows for the rich now?However, women's strawweight contender Mackenzie Dern, who is fighting in Saturday's main event, told reporters Wednesday that the reason behind the closure is Meta chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg.
Speaking at a media day Wednesday in Las Vegas, Dern (12-2), who is scheduled to face China's Yan Xiaonan (15-3), provided her understanding that the closure is linked to Zuckerberg.
"I know Mark Zuckerberg rented out the whole event," Dern said. "I know he'll be there, but I don't know if it's literally him, his wife or if he'll have friends -- some type of party. But from someone who wanted a main event with a crowd, [it's now] going to be very, very private."
Ok, so tell us why you aren't selling tickets to the public then. You just want to lose money?White took to Twitter later Wednesday and denied that Zuckerberg has rented out the Apex facility.
The UFC has still not commented on the matter other than White, who maintained Tuesday there is "no big secret" behind the decision.
