"Their ticket prices were a lot cheaper " - Dana White on WWE moving Money in the Bank to a smaller venue 

UFC President Dana White has commented on WWE moving Money in the Bank to another location during International Fight Week.

The premium live event was originally scheduled to take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, July 2nd. It will now be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

According to reports, WWE decided to change the location of the show due to poor ticket sales. UFC 276 will commence on the same night at the T-Mobile Arena.

During an appearance on The Spinnin Backfist MMA Show, Dana White shared his thoughts on Money in the Bank being moved.

"To be fair to the WWE, they were probably looking at it and their ticket prices were a lot cheaper and there would be a lot of people in town. International Fight Week is a rough week to do it," said White. [H/T Fightful]

According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio, several people within the company were not pleased with Khan's actions.
