I don't think that trt is as bad as they say but at the same time it's a little fishy that he has only fought in brazil since he started on trt

Does anyone see it as a money decision since he sells more tickets and draws more viewers when he fights in Brazil?

I'm sure that's part of it, but so do Anderson and Aldo and they don't fight in brazil every time

I think it's a bit of both to be honest the more I think about,
He's a huge Draw in Brazil, just like GSP in Canada I dunno many times he's fought there in a row too.
Edit
Didn't realise that was Kevin Iole guess he be on the ban list with all of sherdog at the pressers

He has fought in Brazil his last 2 fights and this will be his 3rd straight, before that it was Canada vs Jones, Brazil vs Johnson and Phily for Akiyami

Kevin covered the card in Boston this past Saturday.
Who else could headline in Brazil?, Anderson fights like once(maybe) twice a year. Aldo and Baroa are currently out injured. Nog?, ha no...It's suspicious I'm not gonna lie, but it makes complete sense to have him headlining a card in Brazil, there having a lot of cards there that are always sold out. There's a lot of fighters that can fight in Vegas, for now Brazil in a headliner aren't that many fighters at the moment, other than Machida tbh...

Shogun and Wanderlei.
And I bet Cezar Mutante and Rony Jason together could headline in a smaller venue.

Shogun won't be able to cut it as he's lost the last 2, he could retire. Jason and Mutante in a headline? come on Copper that's not going to happen. I did think of Wand and Werdum in some fights after I posted. It's just depends on if there available, fit or not...
Not many options available IMO

I'm talking about Brazilian fans. They would show up. I'm not talking about PPV numbers here in North America.

I know all that man, we are getting Bisping in a main event with Pearson in a co main event. I can speak for UK and say that the majority are happy with that. Mikes our most popular fighter, Brazils still going to need fighters in main events who are popular as fuk and Vitor is a star attraction over there. They still wouldn't want to pay £240 to watch some fighters that just starting to get recognition....
Fuk this I'm going to bed Copper lol
