#4 By doing so, further hurts the UFC's reputation

Since WME-IMG took over the UFC in 2016, there have been more complaints than praises from most of the fighters on their current roster. Simply put, many of the UFC's big names have felt that the company has been driven more by making money than ensuring their actual needs are being fairly taken care of.

The "money-fight" era in the UFC is indeed in full swing and generally, it has not been accepted by both fans and fighters alike. The making of this fight would only add insult to injury, and could possibly turn off the audience more, as opposed to attracting more supporters across the world who may eventually become loyal followers.
