Question

which statement best counters a viewpoint in section three? a early promoters of ufc events never worked with state athletic commissions. b early promoters of ufc events resisted working with state athletic commissions. c early promoters of ufc events were eager to work with state athletic commissions, without public pressure being a necessary inducement. d promoters of ufc events were eventually pressured to work with state athletic commissions.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option to see which contradicts a viewpoint in section three (assuming the original viewpoint was about early UFC promoters' reluctance or need for pressure to work with athletic commissions):

• Option A: Stating they "never worked" is extreme and less likely to counter (usually countering is about attitude, not absolute action).
• Option B: "Resisted" aligns with a negative viewpoint, so it does not counter.
• Option C: Says they were "eager" and "without public pressure," which directly contradicts a viewpoint that they were reluctant or needed pressure to work with commissions.
• Option D: "Pressured to work" aligns with a viewpoint about external pressure, so it does not counter.

Answer:

C. Early promoters of UFC events were eager to work with state athletic commissions, without public pressure being a necessary inducement.
