Who knows what was going on back then.

Recently? No way in hell, for the same reason that the NFL is not fixed. Zuffa/NFL can make plenty of money by running a clean sport, but if the people find out that its fixed, the UFC/NFL could very well die. Seriously, if we actually uncovered proof that the NFL was fixing a few games here and there, I would immediately stop watching the Chiefs and the NFL, overnight, forever. The risk is too staggeringly high to do that, its also why sports leagues are paranoid about players gambling on their own sport.

you never know.
