Gotta respect somebody that tells it like it is wether or not the boss gets pissed off. I agree with what hes saying about how Dana hypes shit up, its ridiculous but he makes a ton a money that way. What was hilarious was when Tim Sylvia had the belt. Hes so goofy and unmarketable Dana was going out and bringing in the best guys he could find damn near every month to get him out of there. Meanwhile, Anderson Silva was basically picking his own fights until he pissed all the fans off with that last fight with Maia, running around the ring and not finishing. Now Dana says its time to go bye bye.
ya, half of me respects him, the other half hates him.. he hypes up the worst fights, he's almost like vince mcman... mma has really turned a bit too much into WWE, which pisses me off.. i just wish UFC co-promoted stuff with other orgs so we could have cross-org fights, ie strikeforce vs ufc cards etc.. that's what is ruining mma.. great fighters are in different orgs and can't fight each other, its ridiculous.. as much ducking/dodging as their is in boxing, at least fighters have a shot at unifying the belts etc.
i lost alot of love for ando when he pulled that maia shit.. sure, showboating is fine once in a while, but you got to finish your opponent, not run
i hope sonnen crushes him, that's not going to be easy, but sonnen is legit enough to pull it off.
i hope toney jab-ko's couture too. bwahaha. but i doubt that happens, tony is training like a bum.
