I disagree, when he first said he was making the annoucement he said that it would "indicate the direction UFC is headed for the next 10 years"

In the future if the UFC would give us the courtesy on not having any pre-announcement announcements, that would be nice. We don't need to be prepared in advance to be ready to hear an announcement. We can just hear as it is made.

something is telling me that this announcement is pretty big, or else why would they push it off? if it wasn't a big deal, then they could just announce it and be over with it...

LOL. Seriously. Dana White has to be the biggest idiot ever.

"I guarantee we will have Fedor within next month!"

"HBO deal will happen. It is only a matter of time!"

"We have huge announcement next week. It is going to shape the landscape of MMA for next five years!"

You'd think he will get it after awhile, but I guess there are just some who never get it. Isn't it common sense for anyone with......common sense to not to make any announcement until it is finalized?

Dana will announce his move to the LHW division, his striking coach will be none other than the Ice Man.
