It’s true, Michael Jackson is evidently a fan of The Ultimate Fighting Championship as evidenced by his appearance at UFC 84. Attendees report seeing the King of Pop wheeled into the arena in a wheelchair just in time for the Tito Ortiz vs. Lyoto Machida match with his face covered with a hood and sporting sunglasses. It’s been rumored that Jackson has some financial dealings with a company that UFC owners, the Fertitta brothers, have an interest in.
What the heck was he in a wheelchair for? Did the Fertittas break his legs for not paying them on that business deal?
He was most likely in the wheelchair because he is afflicted by a disease called Lupus, which attacks many different parts of the body (back, neck, arms, legs) and may have had trouble walking at the time.
Michael Jackson is my favorite pop artist ever since i was a child. He is truly the King of Pop and i am saddened by this news.
Oviousely the wheelchair was part of the disguise

Poor MJ – he had to be in disguise to get privacy. Imagine the chaos if he arrived without disguise.
Yes, the wheelchair was a part of disguise :) Always remember that Mike is a Master of Disguise… “I could fool my own mother.” He was kinda forced to do that in order to have at least a little privacy, but he also loves it just as much! :)
