“Transfer my court to Russia @danawhite @ufc,” tweeted the Russian champion, apparently hinting at the absurdity of the move which saw a number of fans losing money over canceled flights and hotel reservations.
The card’s fighters also took a hit of up to 13% in tax difference between the states, not to mention their preparations, as decision to move the event was made on a six-day notice.
