This week in “Press Row,” Jordan Breen and Combat Sports Law's Erik Magraken dig into the recent removal of Mark Hunt from UFC Fight Night 121 after he admitted to early signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), discussing whether or not the UFC has the legal authority to pull fighters on medical grounds, the role of athletic commissions in situations such as this, what makes Hunt’s case unique and whether or not the 2001 K-1 World Grand Prix champion’s fraught and litigious history with the promotion played a role in the UFC’s decision. |
