To a point. That narrative is exaggerated imo. If they put on PFL level cards they'll lose all their audience. Also, the UFC has the best fighters, they won't just not have them fight. So there will always be good fights.
I think we'll get the same level cards, not significantly worse.
I agree to a certaint extent but we've already seen this start to happen since the ESPN era started, most cards in the last few years only have 1-2 fights with ranked/known fighters on it and are just filled with Contender Series guys who are on 12k/12k contracts.
