Oh it would happen if the UFC/M1 Global would come to agreements on the whole co-promte thing. But Dana White is going to stand his ground which he should. UFC doesn't have any problem with drawing viewers, he's made the entire sport mainstream and what it is today. Strikeforce is around because of the way UFC brought the sport into the light. There wouldn't be other fight leagues around if it werent for UFC making the sport become more popular.
Only way it would happen is if one of the fighters gets out of their contract. Brock is the UFCs highest paid fighter IIRC. I could be wrong on that. But he's making bank, so I doubt he wants to do that. UFC is the NFL of MMA anyways. Don't know why someone would leave unless it was all about $$$. But Dana offered Fedor the ****in world almost to come fight in the UFC and wouldnt do it because.....the co-promote and disagreements both parties had.
So they would fight if they co-promote.
Thing is though.....they won't come to agreement to co-promote. And Fedor is partial owner of M1.
Therefore, we won't see the fight.
