		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;I donâ€™t know Zach, it looks like PRIDE and Zuffa have forced you to soften your stance progressively as each day has gone by. Weâ€™ve gone from â€œthis will never happen once the lawyers get a look at thingsâ€ to a major press conference announcing it as a done deal.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Due diligence usually takes place after a heads of agreement or a variation of such a deal takes place.  You can handshake on a business transaction and then the lawyers &amp; accountants get involved.  Meaning due diligence may in fact have not taken place yet and is happening as we speak, which would make sense.  The fighter contracts are what Zuffa wants the most and if those are not assignable, then the deal can certainly fall apart.  I don&#039;t know if I expect it to or if Zuffa will just pay less money in the end because some of the deals don&#039;t transfer over.</description>

		<description>Yes!

&lt;blockquote&gt;So when Dana says: â€œLike most things,â€ he said, â€œabout 70 percent of what you hear is bullshit.â€ 

Does that mean 70% of the stuff he says is bullshit then too?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The problem is not even Dana knows WHICH 70 percent of what he say is in that category ;)</description>

		<description>&quot;Zuffa seems confident that the PRIDE contracts are assignable and transferrable to a third party. Letâ€™s wait and see how this works out.&quot;    are you that arrogant to still cling to you&#039;re previous reports even after the deal has been announced</description>

		<description>I believe Diaz has a fractured his right orbital bone.   I&#039;m not sure how long it will take him to recover and according to WebMD &quot;The timing of and need for eye socket fracture repair is controversial. &quot;  Hopefully he will post something on his website.</description>

		<description>A doctor can release a fighter early if it is deemed he is no longer at risk from his prior injury for which he was suspended.  I believe it happens all the time...but I think it is more common for doctors to waive the &quot;no contact&quot; restrictions early.</description>
