@Me Tube lmao wtf you are talking about? you hear something on the internet and then come spit it out like you're some expert on the subject, if your point is to show that Trump is bad at business then my response would be for you to look up how much he is worth (10B$ +) And let me correct you on the subject , when someone files for bankrupcy of his company , its not because he doesnt have a dime in his pocket or he's in the streets begging for a dollar , its because the business is not generating enough money to break-even , when that happens you shut down the business in order to cut losses , that is a strategy in business and its not always bad , its bad if you dont file for bankrupcy , plus he had like 60 business besides that one so what are you trying to prove in your comment ? learn some business first instead of acting like you actually know something about the matter

[@Noname-wz1yy]

Yeah but to be fair, Dana as one of the few ufc owners, an independent company can afford to adopt that mentality. Nba owners can’t, they may all be billionaires but the weight any single franchise owner carries is small in comparison to the league. There’s a precedent of franchise owners being forced to sell if they fall out of line with the league. Kudos to Dana though for having a real spine.
