We'll be providing live updates from the Dana White press conference today via this post. You can also follow along with Luke Thomas' updates via the official MMA Nation Twitter account.
The press conference starts at 2:00pm EST. Make sure to stay at BloodyElbow.com for what should be big news.
- We're under way. Dana had said this would stream on UFC.com but no one can find it so follow our updates here.
- Dana says they tried everything possible to get Fedor in the UFC and went above and beyond, the only thing they wouldn't cave on is co-promotion.
- Dana White confirms that they have signed Vitor Belfort. Belfort will fight Rich Franklin at UFC 103.
- A 3 year deal has been signed with ESPN UK. Free, Hi-Def starting with UFC 101
- Tito Ortiz is officially back in the UFC. Dana White says "Tito will retire in the UFC"
- Tito: "Time cures everything. Dana apologized to me....It was about competition...financially I'm ok...Dana stuck by his word."
- Ortiz states that there was no one to fight if he went to Strikeforce and that he feels totally healthy.
- Tito is working with Freddie Roach and says he expects to fight in November or December.
- It is confirmed that Vitor vs. Franklin will be at light heavyweight (205 lbs)
- White confirms Tito's first fight back could be against Mark Coleman and expects some ring rust.
- Dana says they are always working to complete a network deal but need "the right deal" which they don't yet have.
- Tito says it was an offer he couldn't refuse and you'll never hear him complain about money again.
- Dana claims that Dan Henderson is next in line for a title shot at 185.
- From twitter.com/mmanation:
White: M-1's going to "co-promote"? They're going to help US? "That shit probably works in Russia. Not here."
- Dana says the UFC is going to come to Japan and it "can't be stopped"
- White says that no one wants to watch Mayweather vs. Marquez, they want to see Mayweather vs. Pacquiao.
- Dana says he has no interest in bringing back Tim Sylvia or Andrei Arlovski.
- White claims that M-1 can call him right now if they're ready to make a deal. He was very confident this was going to happen.
- Again from MMA Nation's twitter:
White: the deal that White said "would change the UFC forever" is "very close" to happening and NOT the Tito Ortiz deal.
- White claims they were willing to make a deal at almost any cost to get Fedor but he doesn't want to fight the best.
- Dana says he feels it is his job to make Fedor/Lesner a reality since it is what fans want. And Fedor can do sambo every Thursday night for all he cares.
- White confirms that if they get a network deal they're putting "real fights" on TV.
- The call is over

Oh joy, it’s earlier than I expected. I am hoping for some good ole M-1/Fedor bashing from Dana. I’ve got a bad taste in my mouth from all the M-1 and Fedor bullshit, so I hope this press conference is worth while.

I hope he doens't mention them at all
The Jerry Millen statements put the nail in that coffin already. Fedor’s not coming to the UFC while he’s with M1. Done. Over. Even talking about in a press conference only gives more fuel to the M1 ego pyre.
Thank you
Stole the words right out of my mouth.
Fedor not signing=permanent radio silence.

I agree, unless he wants to start the conference with “Fuck Fedor” and then go on from there, that’d be pretty funny

Compromise?
I like the idea of not mentioning Fedor at all, and when someone asks at the end, just fire off a quick “Fuck em. Next question?”
Damn

M-1 are a bunch of a-holes, and it’s because they don’t see the relevance of having Fedor in the UFC and the irrelevance of their promotion as a whole currently.
Eventually the UFC could say good riddance, I don’t think it’ll be today.
"I call this here Clark Kent. Just sniff this, right here. It’s good, huh?! You smoke this s**t and you just wanna rip your clothes off in a phone booth and fight crime"
Its Tito. Just got an update on facebook from Inside MMA
Inside MMA tonight, 9 ET – Fedor, Vadim and Atencio interviews and a MMA legend speaks about his homecoming…
Clearly that’s Tito.

Wrong is different than full of shit. And he has yet to be proven wrong on this. He will most likely be wrong, but given the details most people would have agreed with his prediction before M-1’s reactions. Only an idiot or someone unethically self serving would turn down that.

Which we all got a chance to see the contract eventually
And while Fedor is an ass for turning it down… he was arrogant enough to guarantee that Fedor would fight in the UFC, at UFC 103 no less.
He was wrong, end of story. He has theories that occassionally pan out but he isn’t some freakin god like you make him out to be.

He looks so depressed in that little picture.
Like he just sighed and thought about his negotiations with Fedor.
It's 1:45 am..
I’m contemplating staying up and risking not waking up for thesis.. or just sleep now and read the news in the morning..
You’ve made it this far. Make someone wake you up, that’s fool proof. Slam some coffee or energy drinks when you get up.

Trade deadline or UFC Press Conference. It's a tough choice.
Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.

Who is your guys pick for Titos first fight should he return to the octagon?
I am leaning towards Keith Jardine or Luis Cane.
Jardine is booked against Thiago Silva and Cane would beat Tito’s ass.

they could play up the fact that they are both Mexican Americans

Cane is apparently hurt, although nobody could confirm it. UFC may be making that match-up though.

I agree with that, but wasn’t Belfort swearing up and down that he would only fight MW? Maybe he was scared of Gegard.
he said there was no upside to fighting Gegard at LHW...
that if he fought HIM it’d have to be at 185, because thats the weight in which Gegard has had success
I'm like PacMan fightin you silly kids... throw ya Hatton the ring, and get knocked outlike Ricky did.
lol.
Tito says he’ll be back around December. Working with Freddie Roach. Maybe fight on New Year’s card. I trust Dana 100-percent

Hendo earned this
the Hendo-Franklin rematch made less sense then their first fight. Since his last loss he’s gone out there and beaten Palharas, Franklin, and Bisping – he’s earned it. I think they’re worried that Maia will beat Marquardt and a Maia-Silva fight will be a repeat of Silva-Leites
I give Maia a little more credit than Leites, Maia will at least attempt to get in for a takedown while Leites was content attempting to use gravitational pull to get Anderson down to him.

How are we likely to see Pac/Mayweather first? Mayweather has shown zero interest in that fight and the only reason he’s come back at all is to get some cash cause he’s broke. Unless Mayweather/Marquez gets no buys and Pac/Cotto does gangbusters, we’re not gonna see Pac/Mayweather.

the MAIN problem of boxing is getting big fights to happen!!!!
and all the maneuvering you can doo to avoid competitive fights and instead have mandatory challengers fight for ABC belts
did u know that in the lightweight division the WBC has a super champion(jmm), a regular champion, and an interim champion all in one organization!!
let’s not bring up the fact there is still the WBO,IBF,WBA,NABF, n w/e countless european titles
Not saying that
It might not be good for their business model. I’m just saying that it’s a fact that in MMA, you miss out on some big fights because of the lack of co-promotion. I don’t think this should be shocking news to anyone.
But now the only big guys not in the UFC are Aoki, Alvarez, Mousasi, and Fedor. The UFC isn’t missing too much.
You could add more names to that list. The UFC certainly has most of the big names, but there are a lot of big fights that we MMA fans have to resign ourselves to never being able to see. And that doesn’t happen to nearly the same extent in boxing.

I remember it was about the HBIO deal...
HBO was going to put on UFC shows, but they wanted control of production. They wanted their own announcing team as opposed to Rogan and Goldberg.
In HBO’s eyes, Rogan and Goldberg were UFC employees, so they would obviously be bias towards the UFC.
HBO wanted to bring in guys who would be “neutral” and call it how it is…just like any other sport.
That’s what HBO does with boxing, and that’s what CBS, FOX, ABC, ESPN do with other sports like the NFL.
UFC got to where they are at with their own way of doing things.
They didn’t want to give up control.
And who could blame them, I guess. So the deal fell through with HBO.
That’s what I remember guys.
Anybody more familiar can correct me here.

And technically he won’t be wrong until 103 is over…
He said Afflictions second show was their last months ago, people laughed at him, now look what happened. He knew Affliction was looking for a way out and based his prediction then on that, despite the ending of that drama being a fluke, he still ended up being right. He overguarantees but his information has still proven to be solid.

My thoughts....
1. I am not quite sure how I feel about Vitor vs. Franklin. Considering Vitor is a MW and Franklin is now a LHW. I am sure it ill e fun to watch though.
2. I am glad Tito is back, he brings more flavor to the LHW division and he is like the original gangsta of the UFC. Glad to know he will be retiring in the UFC. He will probably get inducted into the hall of fame now. Rightly so.
3. Freddie Roach with Tito is a good thing. I am interested to see the new Ortiz’s stand-up game. Freddie Roach really helped AA game (he was beating Fedor untill he got cocky)
4. Coleman/Ortiz doen’t really excite me too much but Tito does need a tune up fight so I give the UFC slack on this one.
5. Henderson is getting another title shot? Awesome, I think he deserves it.

I believe it means that there wasn’t such a deal possible because I believe if you co-promote with a company that holds a gaming license, the other company involved in the co-promotion must also obtain a license.

I thought he was saying that they wouldn’t jeopardize their license by doing business with gangsters.
That’s what I was thinking as well. It could be a similar deal to the PRIDE ordeal. They’d have to do their due dilligence on the M-1 management, and if any ties to the mafia or something comes up in Russia, the Nevada Gaming Commission could get involved and cut Fertitta’s license. This was ultimately a huge issue with the PRIDE deal.

If he had left for something outside the ring (money) or something related to performance (losing) it’d be one thing. But refusing to let go of a choke (and having people make a stink about it) is a tough one to recover from.

I can comfortably say Dana White sounded almost despondent the Fedor deal didn’t go through. His inner fight fan was showing…on full display.
It was a pretty irresponsible deal to offer, looking at it now. He really wanted to make this happen.

its why I love Dana. He’s a businessman but has never forgotten what its like to be a fan. Boxing could take a lesson from that.
We are still here, just
very very disappointed with the current product.
Nothing earthshattering
but Dana comes through one a couple of things.
1. UFC 103 goes from being a show that should be on Spike to potentially one of the best of the year.
2. UFC gets deeper and better with signings of guys like Buentello, Daley, and other Affliction fighters.
3. The middleweight title picture is cleared up
4. We get Tito Ortiz interviews back!
A good day. There doesn’t look to a weak UFC card for the rest of the year . . . no UFC 85 or 93 or 95 or 96 in the making.

Marquart pile drived Leites and Hughes got KTFO. I enjoyed it quite a bit.\
UFC 93 yeah was kinda bad. Seeing Kang lose was pretty sweet.
UFC 95 was not bad either, Marquardt finishing Gouveia with his street fighter combo and Koscheck getting KTFO was good too.
UFC 96 was pretty good, Vera ended a fight on leg kicks (awesome), Hamill knocked Munoz out with that awesome head kick and Carwin KO’ed Gonzaga, overall a pretty decent card.
GSP didn’t fight at 92. Are you talking about 94?

If true, deal is broken forever, russian never forget that kind of insults.
Dana does not forget the co-promotion bullshit, which is a far worse insult.

It’s a business offer , a ridiculous one but a business offer.
Personnal attack are much worse.
Can you imagine Fedor signing with the guy that said “Fuck Fedor”? He is no Tito Ortiz.
If you go up to a woman shopping at Dillards and say “I’ll give you 5 bucks to suck my dick” you are making a business offer. She’s still going to slap the shit out of you.
