12739158, injuries. when their business is down it is completely due to injuries

Look at who all was hurt in 2014 - Pettis, Velasquez, Silva, Belfort a couple other belt-holders and #1/#2 ranked fighters. In a business like UFC if you can't have title fights or big fights then your ticket price goes down and your PPVs go down - which is the bread and butter of their business.

But 2015 though? Jon Jones is gonna fight 3 times, Cain is coming back, Pettis is back, Conor McGregor is fighting Aldo for the belt at International Fight Week, Silva is back, (suspended but whatever they already made their money on 183), Belfort is gonna fight Weidman.

Dana White won't be done counting his money from 184 before his starts counting his money from 185.
