WFL currently streaming one of their smaller events live on Facebook: www.facebook.com/WorldFightingLeague/videos/301884470523533/What I find curious is that they mute the parts where copyrighted music is playing and have an on screen graphic explaining it. I always wondered about that during the broadcast of live sport events; are they breaking any laws or does it fall under some sort of fair use policy? |

I guess they pay to the music associations and stuff. At least in my country is like that. Clubs, public spaces and every public place that plays copyrighted music have to pay a monthly fee.

During a live event it's usually not an issue, but depending on how it's broadcast it can be an issue. So, say, if someone used a Beatles song, that'd probably be super expensive and there's no way anyone is paying for the license. |

Just write a fake press release for an event called Mountain Lion Fight about that guy from Colorado having IBJJF rules grappling matches against a progressively larger series of cats and post it verbatim on liverkick every time he sends you one |

Facepalm.gif
ONE does a lot of things that pisses me off, but man this shit in particular rubs me the wrong way. My day job is as a corporate consultant doing private investment diligences and I've seen the same game played by a hundred different fake startups.
I've seen some colleagues who went to Singapore for their MBA get headhunting calls from ONE as well, specifically cause they want the lie by PowerPoint skillset. Imagine paying some 28 year old MBA a magnitude more money than most fighters on their roster for this shit

When I was still in that world I was in a student apartment block where 90% of the residents were doing an MBA, a small but significant proportion of them were insanely stupid rich kids whose parents paid for them to go to another country just so they could have sex for the first time since they were born. Most of those just paid someone else to do their work, and the ones that didn't wouldn't shut the fuck up about obvious bullshit companies/scams they were "investing" in or were starting, and they all talked exactly like a ONE press release. Maybe I should check Linkedin...

Imagine being as brazen to just say "well, we can't get accurate numbers from a region, so just kick those numbers up 4-5x." |

Kunlun Fight doing 66, 70 and 75 kg one night 8-man tournaments this year. June, September and December in 1st tier cities. Also, 8-man China qualifiers where the winner gets a spot in the main tournament.
They're basically saying quality, not quantity and no more 64-man 70kg tournament.
Curiously didn't say anything really about 61.5kg, HW or the women's tournaments so wonder what happens with their main fighters from those divisions. Just super fights, regular title fights or bye bye for good?

Good news: Ren Hiramoto is finished with Judge Eyes
Bad news: It's been nearly a year since his last fight and he's posting videos of himself training at Evolve, so we know what that means
Worse news: The Yakuza 5 remaster is due to release in Spring, we may not see him fight until 2020
