Renato “Money” Moicano has recently become one of the most exciting fighters in the UFC. Even more than his fight, fans eagerly await what he has to say in the octagon interview. He now has a podcast with Gilbert Burns, where he recently showed his suspicion of Dana White, claiming the UFC broke the live gate record at UFC St. Louis.
White revealed that UFC St. Louis had 16000 attendees and generated $2,470,197 in live gate. However, Moicano did not believe it to be true. The UFC lightweight, a proponent of the Austrian School of Economics, was a recent guest on Fox Business. As such, he attributed the record-breaking feat a result of inflation.
So, this is 100% inflation. You don’t need to be a genius to know that…The cost of the dollar is 25%[more].

Moicano also had a sly dig at Joe Biden as he cited ‘Bidenomics’ as a reason for the inflation. Moreover, he even stated that the $50K bonus for the UFC did not have the same value as it had some years before. Moicano even said that the $50K bonus for the UFC now only has a value of $25K.
Dana White recently revealed after St. Louis that they have plans to have fight nights on the road and not in the UFC Apex. As such, the promotion would host fight nights in several cities in the USA. They would also do fight nights in other countries. The UFC already has a fight night scheduled for Riyadh in June.
Renato Moicano speaks on UFC Saudi Arabia
The UFC would make its promotional debut in Saudi Arabia with UFC Saudi Arabia on June 23. Headlined by Khamzat Chimaev and Robert Whittaker, the event also has other exciting fights. The PFL had already debuted with PFL vs. Bellator: Champs.
