News "Bloody Elbow" Was Sold and Their Entire Staff Was Laid Off

[Siver!]

I hope when that guy says "15 years" of work deleted, he's still got it saved, or whatever bits he wanted.

That would suck, though.

I wonder how much they sold for? Sherwood sold this shithole for 750,000 back in the day..

Good, the difference between legal documents and what these MMA "journalists" publish is astounding. Just like the LA Times, karma eventually collects its fees. Time for Bloody Elbow to pay up.

 

[FriskyRandy]

welcome to the real world pal. they playing the game. you just an npc

Is this English? How kids type on the internet is annoying as fuck.

 

[TheMadHatter]

I haven’t used bloody elbow in years. They were way too soft over there, especially for covering MMA.

This is why the wayback machines work is so goddamm important. Don't know if they managed to archive BE a lot of sites have found a way to stop them but if they managed you can still read the articles.

When this society falls whatever comes next really need a seperate legal system to protect historical sources. Cause the idea that such a large treasure trust of historical sources can be stolen from future generations because some filthy capitalist bought the website is disturbing. Purchasing things comes with an obligation to care about their upkeep.

Trolling so hard, your marks are fans. Bravo, my friend ,you're good at this shit!

Unfortunately here at sherdog we are not allowed to talk about any other mma related companies.

Therefore TS and all participants will be banned.

This is going to severely impact what we get to learn about MMA. Bellator and One financial reports? Bloody Elbow. UFC anti-trust suit? Bloody Elbow. Which fighter is kissing the boots of Russian warlords or oligarchs? Bloody Elbow. Why is the UFC so obsessed with visiting some states and countries but avoid others? Bloody Elbow. Why is the UFC obsessed with the Apex? Bloody Elbow.

Now questions such as these will go unanswered.

EDIT: Or as this nerd said.

The most self righteous and prudish online community I've ever seen. Considering mma and it's fanbase it always seemed strange to me.

He wrote that 25 year anniversary article on the Just Bleed Guy...

Why would they vandalise their own shit like that?

 

[Shaolin Alan]

Oh no; what will Karim Zidan do now??!!

(Sherdog finna scoop him up!!)

 

[Kryptt]

More like Bloody Anus now I'm betting...

Grown ass men should find real jobs

Someone has to do that kind of work. So why not grown ass men.

Sack off the staff. Create fictional names / people and pump out junk articles written by AI for clicks.

 

[ThinkBig500]

Bloody Elbow had too much soy for an MMA website. Good riddance.

 

[eiyuu]

Haven't checked the site in years. Oh well.

Honestly... that wouldn't be a bad business model in the short term.

Pick up undervalued assets or brands with following but underperforming financially from lager media organizations looking to offload them. Cut every imaginable cost. Close the office, replace the staff with an AI that converts press releases and other people's work into "articles" and try to milk every dollar possible out of it before the audience realizes it's gone to shit.

Yeah sensational for business. Dark and extremely sad for humanity.

Damn it's Chatri or Dana.

Wait and see who the site starts shilling for. Then we'll know.
