Luke Thomas Joins Press Row

---

Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com blog. This week, Breen is joined by MMAFighting.com senior editor Luke Thomas.

Zuffa is firming up its late 2015 schedule and in the process, UFC boss Dana White has come out and said that the UFC will not be headed to AT&T Stadium in Texas any time soon. With the latest pointless tease in the last half-decade, Breen and Thomas discuss whether or not an MMA event in the home of the Dallas Cowboys is really a goal worth pursuing for the UFC, why AT&T Stadium holds so much symbolic signifiance in the MMA landscape and whether or not the periodic discussions of a card at Jerry Jones' playground are anything more than leverage against the MGM Grand and other casinos in Las Vegas.

Breen and Thomas also tackle why casinos have the leg-up on bidding for major fights and how “Sin City' became America's combat sports capital, Manny Pacquiao's doubleheader just outside of Dallas, the intangible benefits of a UFC stadium show regardless of location and whether Ronda Rousey might be the right fighter to headline such an event.

Grab your credential and get a seat in “Press Row.”
