Dana White & Co. Announce Unexpected Gift for Fighters In An Attempt To Save Face After UFC Apex Criticism

Members of the UFC roster can rejoice, for there is a new bonus in town! The UFC fighters were notified on Tuesday of the implementation of a new ticketing policy, much to their elation.

This ticketing policy includes family and friends who can attend the fights at UFC Apex. However, this might come after the brazen and harshly pernicious criticism against UFC Apex. The memo was notified by Nolan King on X, where he gave the details of Dana White and Co.’s new ticketing policy.

Dana White invites families of UFC fighters

In a memo by MMA Junkie, the UFC CBO Hunter Campbell issued a notice to fighters and their teams that there is a new prize. Starting with UFC Fight Night 240 on Saturday, the fighters can receive four tickets for their family and friends to watch the individual fights.

Nolan wrote the same on X, “In a memo issued today, UFC CBO Hunter Campbell notified fighters they will now receive four tickets each for family and friends to attend their fights that take place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.” Continuing in the comments he mentioned, “The tickets are good for each individual fight only and groups will be rotated between each fight. Previously, tickets weren’t guaranteed. It was a bit situational, but fighters’ family and friends were frequently purchasing tickets in order to watch live.

Generally, UFC fighters receive 4 complimentary tickets for the events. However, these were not guaranteed to the UFC Apex athletes before this new policy. This new policy might be to soften the blow of the criticism against UFC Apex. Welterweight fighter Kevin Lee was upset about the UFC Apex which could not garner fans. He said to Morning Kombat, “It seems like we’re killing the sport for money, and that I’m not cool with.” Not only is this new policy in place, but the price of a ticket for UFC 300 is pretty massive this time.

Price ticket for UFC 300

As per several reports, the ticket price for UFC 300 is dependent on the place of the seat. However, the tickets start from $600 and can rise to $3000. It is safe to say that this is one of the most costly UFC events of all time. 

MMA reporter Aaron Bronsteter gave the revelation on his X account. He wrote, “These are the standard ticket prices according to the Fight Club Presale.” This card is a huge landmark, however, many viewers might not be able to attend owing to the price of the tickets. Meanwhile, it is safe to say that despite the price, it might be a full house show.

White has already spoken about the massive scale of this year’s fight so the price might not come as a shock to fans. What do you think about the new ticketing policy of bringing family and friends?
