UFC: Will Children ever fight in UFC?

David Shaw had a clear answer to the question and it is ‘NO’. According to the UFC executive, UFC will never have children fighting in the company. Though, UFC President Dana White in the past said that they will never have women fighting in their company but today the UFC roster has some of the best female athletes in the world.   However, UFC has no plans to set up any children fights in their company and David Shaw is confident that the company will always stick to it. Children’s MMA fights are quite popular in Russia and many other parts of the world but if you are expecting it to happen in UFC, you are wrong, according to David Shaw.

UFC: Innovative matchups

UFC has always been keen towards setting up cross-event and unorthodox matchups. A few days back, pop star Justin Bieber challenged Tom Cruise for a fight and wanted Dana White to make the matchup in UFC. Dana White immediately showed a green signal to the fight and wanted to make it happen in reality until Bieber cancelled the probability of the fight by stating it as a joke. Dana White has also arranged a  multi-million dollar cross-event fight with Mayweather promotions in the past and it surely blessed the organisation with a lot of money. The recent idea of making a one-time BMF belt was also a very innovative idea and UFC has always been open for new ideas. However, children fighting is surely not one of them.
