Dana just likes to spout off and say shit before he really thinks about it. He's very passionate about the UFC, I'll give him that but unless he's willing to do whatever it takes to make the fight happen, he really should shut up for a while. I love the UFC and I think Dana has done an amazing job building it up but I'm wondering if Lorenzo and Frank should keep him away from the media lol. Oh well regardless of what Dana has to say anyone who knows anything about MMA knows that Fedor is the real deal. I will say that unless he fights some credible opponents soon he should go down in the rankings but that certainly doesnt mean he is any less skilled than he was when he was destroying everyone in Pride.
Fedor=Badass
Dana=Loudmouth (I'm trying to be nice) lol
I'm amazed that he can still behave the way he is doing. I can't think of another business where you could talk like this and still hold the position Dana is holding. How long can you continue just because you were there from the start? He must have some major dirt on somebody. That's the only reason I can think of that wouldn't make him have to step back and take a quite roll. This can not be good even for the UFC in the long run.
Will somebody do something before he insults everyone in the business? Just like old fighters have to accept it when they are past their prime, Dana should know that he has done some great work but it's time for someone else to take over. Maybe you need two different people for building and running the show?
The UFC is not bullet proof and the sport will not go away just because UFC is not there.
The only farse around here is Dana White AND the people that hide behind, "I'm not going to start telling him how to run the business now" talk.
Don't feel sorry for a millionaire, don't feel sorry for Dana White.
Dana White keeps calling Fedor a farce but this guy is the best hw in the world and has beat up ur current world champ (nog) baddd a couple times. It wasn't even close. He calls Randy the best hw, because he beat sylvia (who was finished by nog) and because he beat gonzaga (a person who dana white said no one heard of until beating CC)? The fact is Randy did look really good in those fights but he hasn't beat great competition either! Beating Sylvia and GG makes you #1 suddenly?
If he beats Nog... I'll give him credibility but I hope Nog submits him in the first round, so Dana can stop praising randy so much. The fact is Randy would be one mistake away from being submitted if he fights Nog.
The thing I do agree with Dana though is when he said Sylvia let Randy have the opportunity to fight for the title, so the least Randy can do is show the same respect and courtesy to Nog and fight him in return.
I agree Fedor is still the best in the world, but thats because he hasn't been beaten. But you can not judge it on a who beat who. Look at the triangle between Hendo, Silva, Liddell, and Rampage. That is a who's who of I beat him he beat you and you beat him it to many what ifs when you do rankings that way.

Well said, whats funny is Dana was willing to pay Millions to have this Farce in the UFC. I wonder if Fedor did sign with the UFC would Dana still call him a a farce??
