Dana must had been a great bully in high school.

First “t-shirt guy” and now strikefarce the names he comes up with are legendary! =)

It’s completely obvious that they don’t want to do a deal. For what ever reason it is… believe me, I tried to figure it out. I have no clue, they don’t want to fight in the UFC.

Dana White has a lot of control. I love MMA period but i will only pay for UFC. Strikefarce doesnt even have ppv yet how are they paying these fighters? Fedor doesn’t want what happend to so many legendary fighters to happen to him. UFC has got the best of a lot of people. Shogun struggled Crop Cop struggled Wand has struggled its not the same. Strikeforce in a cage but rules are still different talent is still different. I wish them the best of luck i do but Dana White seems fucking pissed. Thats bad news if your the competition.

dana talking out of his ass

if fedor is so overrated and not a top heavyweight why did they offer him so much money to fight? hmmm.

hes like a little baby when he doesn’t get his way. he makes himself look like a idiot.

maybe cause fans want to see it?

I think that’s what promoters do…. not sure though…..

uh huh

and because fedor is the best in the world and dana knows it. he just talks out of his ass and acts like a second grader when he doesn’t get his way.

Dana’s job is to promote the UFC.

If he says Fedor is the best in the world, he isn’t promoting the people he gets paid to promote, he’s promoting someone who doesn’t want to work for him, I don’t know what you really want.

wow - you don't seem to know what you are talking about sonofapsycho

The UFC promotes fights – to do that it promotes fighters. Why would he put down Fedor when he thought he was going to sign him? The results of the fights determines who is the best in the world. So whatever your opinion is regarding who is the best, it doesn’t mean a thing until they fight – that is why you play the game as they say. Dana has done a great job at understand the core of his business – Fedor is not the best until he fights the best – period.

Because he cares about the fans, the fans clamor for Fedro, so he tries fucking hard to get Fedro. Finkie and Fedro negotiate in bad faith knowing they do not want to sign with the UFC, and you insult Dana over this? Sit down and shut up.

A man should never waste an opportunity to keep his mouth shut.

You just told someone to “sit down and shut up”. Stop being a hypocrite…

first off

who has any solid info on Fedor’s offer, second, Dana knows what the fans want, and it only makes good business sense to try to get him, he is after all a business man first. Acting like a baby, not so much so, like a spoiled brat, at times, but you can’t argue with the results the man gets

by proflex on Aug 7, 2009 12:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

It's obvious what Dana has to do

Start advertising for Brock/Fedor heavily, say it will air free on spike and then when the time comes, bring out a Russian midget that looks like fedor and have Brock smash him. Can’t go wrong
