The UFC trading DJ for Askren.

It was a historic move in MMA, and it may be a new trend in the year to come.

Jones, Conor-Khabib was a bit of a stain in MMA. DC wasn't the only champ champ in 2018, and UFC on ESPN is a close second.

I picked the trade just to avoid the Khabib and Jones debacles.
