UFC Noche: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly – Media, Fighters & the Sphere Spectacle

In this episode of FUNK !T - Mindful Media & Communication, I dive deep into UFC Noche at the Sphere in Las Vegas to analyze the good, the bad, and the downright ugly aspects of UFC’s communication strategies. How did the media frame the event, and what role did the Sphere play in shaping the spectacle? I also explore how fighters like Sean O'Malley, Alexa Grasso, and Merab Dvalishvili use communication both in and out of the octagon—examining body language, media presence, and fan engagement through media theories like Framing, Proxemics, and Symbolic Interactionism. Join me for a thought-provoking breakdown of fighter communication, media spectacle, and the world of UFC in this one-of-a-kind event.
