WWE and UFC’s merger is a very interesting situation. Vince McMahon is believed to have helped the UFC land a big Fight Night card in Saudi Arabia, and now Mr. McMahon is in Saudi Arabia with great things to say about a company he once tried to steal key people from.

Vince McMahon and The Undertaker were spotted in Saudi Arabia for the Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou fight. In the process, McMahon had great things to say about the UFC.

The Undertaker and Vince McMahon have shared a long history, and their friendship appears as robust as ever. Just a week before WWE’s Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia, both McMahon and The Undertaker were seen in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Their presence in Saudi Arabia was connected to the high-profile Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou bout, and not so much Crown Jewel.

Vince McMahon has certain amount of pull in Saudi Arabia, and he is obviously enjoying himself. When the media asked McMahon about his appearance at the event, he took the chance to make it clear that UFC’s shows are much better.

“WWE has been coming here for a long time, actually. No one else actually asides from that, if this were a UFC event, you know, it would be no different, but nonetheless, Francis Ngannou in PLE is getting knocked out. The UFC is so superior to the PLE, that there’s no contest.”

Vince McMahon then went on to say that “if Fury allows him, Ngannou is getting knocked out in the second round.

It’s good to see Vince McMahon is able to get out there, and in front of the camera as well. He seems to make his own schedule at this point, because he’s worked very hard his entire life to be afforded that luxury.

We will have to see when Vince McMahon shows up next, and which company he’ll put over when he makes his next appearance.
