Dana White: "I bitchslapped his (Randys) agent"

Dostoevsky · 10-13-2007, 03:30 PM

Heres Dana White acting very professional again.

He comes across as an immature idiot nowadays.

It was fine when MMA was underground and edgy and a 'sub-culture'. To have that sort of guy represent the UFC back then fit the enviroment.

But now MMA is becoming mainstream and the UFC is becoming a serious business, it is out of place and ridiculous. It doesn't exactly convey a great image of the sport that the figurehead of the biggest show is a foul mouthed brat.
It won't make MMA be taken seriously if you have that going on, it just re-inforces the perception in MMA-haters minds that all MMA fans are idiot swearing drunken hicks.

Dana needs to be more professional, hire a PR person and take a back seat and allow a more professional person comment on things.

Randy Couture is the man. I like Dana too.

LOL, he called him "Fedor" as in Fedora. Dana's a dick, Fedor's a ***** and together there's a whole lotta ****in' goin' on.

Randy is a stand up guy and I suspect Dana is too. You can't hate on Dana if he plays hardball in business. He just needs to evolve beyond this tough guy persona he tries to project. It really is quite silly with all the profanity and tough talking he does. One day he's going to mouth off to the wrong guy and get "bitch slapped" for real.

I can see it now, UFC and WWE doing a cross-promotional thing and Dana tries to get tough with Vince.....Shano-Mac suplexes him through a table

.....Oh wait this is the real world, Dana KO Shane

dana has an inferiority complex, he has it towards the fighters and for some reason he has it towards the boxing promoters. he should relax, he's rich and famous and that allows him to screw the ring girl models. he's got it made.
