That was the worst interview I have ever heard in my life. I have tried to listen to his shows a few times and they are all terrible…dude can’t stay on one topic for more than 30 seconds.

And did that WWF sounding guy saw the UFC will go out of business in February?

Never heard this Ferrall bloke before, but is it just me or does he sound like the ring announcer from that YAMMA event?

Not a claim, it's a fact

For Scott Ferrall to allow “T-shirt guy” to call the Fertitta’s “mafia guys” and claim they’re going out of business in February and threaten them to a barfight, and not challenge him, in fact to laugh and encourage him … I don’t blame Dana for being pissed.

BTW Gentleman, not sure if you were joking, but Ferrall was indeed the ring announcer for Yamma, for which he was called “World’s Worst Ring Announcer.”

I wasn’t joking! :S

I was aware the Yamma announcer was hailed as the worst the world has to offer but I thought surely they couldn’t have been so stupid to put such a bad radio presenter in for a ring announcers role in the first place, surely it was just some random dude…. Man, I guess I look like the idiot now… that voice is haunting…

the horror….. the… horror.

Did I hear that right ????

you got to love how the Affliction guy keeps saying like a total ass that the UFC is getting thee ass kicked buy Affliction-LOL= Maybe in some parallel universe but I still dout that. I have alwas hated Ferrall but this shit just makes me hate him more. And could Affliction look any worse uy having some one talk shit like this guy did and look so foolish in the process of doing it. Atleast say something people are going to believe or you can spin good. Not that you are kicking the UFC ass !!! UNREAL

I think he was bagging on Station Casinos, and lumping them in w/ the UFC. The Fertitta’s own Station Casino’s, and they are going under… quick (from what I hear).

Nonsense. Station Casinos did very well last year. They, like most of Vegas, have seen business drop quite a bit recently, but are nowhere near failing. Since they are smaller, their overhead is much lower than the major casinos so they actually are in a better position to ride out the economic storm.

This was the first, and only, time I have listen to Scott’s show. Very sloppy and unprofessional.

Dana can be an ass, but these guys came across like total assholes as well.

Maybe that is a requirement if you are going to run an MMA company?

are you kidding? Sure every single casino is losing money but they are the most stable.

very professional to go on a talk show to promote your company when your loaded.

learn to hold your booze and your tounge douchebag.

I was thinking the same thing the whole time about him being drunk or high on coke. Did this asshole who is representing Affliction mind you just come in and do this interview after a night of drinking and blowing lines and getting into a fight with his girl or something ? It was just so unprofessional and horrible to listen to.. And in parts I think he was referring to the UFC, when he keep saying “we are beating them in every aspect of the game” or something along those lines. This interview just makes my feelings towards Affliction that much lower now.

Could that guy have a more annoying voice?

by Callaway on Oct 23, 2008 4:45 PM EDT reply actions  

Funny stuff. You would think a keen business mind like this guys would know that the Fertitta’s only own about 25% of Station Casinos and they already made their cash in the buyback last year or that Station Casinos and Zuffa are two separate and completely unrelated companies. Even if Station Casinos went out of business(which is doubtful) it would mean absolutely nothing about Zuffa’s business future at all. Now I do have to wonder what happens to Affliction when the market for overpriced skeleton riding dragon t shirts tanks.

The guy said Affliction was going to put on 14 shows a year………..WTF?
