I didn't say purely but they are a huge reason in Northamerica why it has become so big and to think otherwise would be ignorant.
Get real; without the UFC MMA would be much much smaller than it is today. Do you think MMA as a whole would be exactly the same size or more without the huge popularity of Zuffa owned UFC? It would exist, as it did for decades, but it would be very small time.
You have to use a pretty liberal definition of "big" to say that it was big in Brazil or Japan. It existed, but it was absolutely nothing approaching what it is today.
Dana's ass is drying you better get back to licking it ***. The same old song and dance with you isn't it Beebs? Zuffa is the greatest, Dana is so sexy, nobody wants to hear about your ****in' gay love affair anymore. We all have brains we can like and dislike who we want we don't need you pushing your homosexual agenda onto us. Please just stop.
So besides a bunch of homoerotic fantasy, what exactly are you saying. Simple question, do you honestly think MMA would have 1/5 the size it is now without Zuffa? Do you really think MMA was "big" in Brazil or Japan? It was known, it was a thing, but it wasn't "big." Honestly, you are just a sad little angry troll. Liking or disliking has nothing to do with it, which is what I said; what I think is stupid is taking that dislike and using it to create a mountain of indignant rage over what was a valid point about how stupid rankings are. Care to respond to any of the actual issues? Or do you just want to think about homosexual acts some more?
The actual issue is MMA is still only legal in 44 states NY looks at it as if its barbaric still ( I live in NY) hopefully that changes soon but as it stands its not like its all over the place. The UFC makes tons of PPV money because they have one every 3 weeks. Go outside and ask the first person you see if they have ever watched MMA I bet you the answer is no. I could careless about the rankings the point of the article was that Dana was basically saying that the websites and journalists where taking bribes, YOU are stuck on the rankings , you totally missed the point.
Well, thats a complete topic change, as per usual. Now instead of "MMA would have been big without Zuffa" its "MMA isn't big" What the **** ever; "Big" is relative: Post Zuffa MMA is far larger than pre Zuffa. What exactly is your point? You don't like Dana White, who gives a ****? It is pretty clear that websites are not objective; Sherdog is the biggest MMA news site and has a huge axe to grind with Zuffa. The MMA media is petty, childish, and has no professionalism. I prefer to operate in the grown up world of things like facts and logical discussions, feel free to keep talking about dicks though.
Its typical with you, "Nobody likes Zuffa, nobody likes Dana waaaa!!" "MMA media is biased and its not fair to the UFC waaaa!!" Well how about this, if Dana was such a ****in dickhead to everyone who he encounters maybe the media would treat him better!!! You get what you give Mr. White.
No hes not but the UFC is. Without the UFC, lets get real..would you really be watching fight night in Muncie Indiana? BTW that Silvia/Pudz fight was breathtaking top tier stuff. and I have no opinion either way of Dana. I dont know the guy.
I like Dana better then his lapdog, zombie, scrotum squeezing followers. I think Dana is unprofessional but as a guy he seems ok. He just can't seem to distinguish reality from UFCality.
The issue of personally liking a guy is irrelevant; your entire worldview is based around Dana White, it is sad. What I'm doing is taking an absurd thread that if it involved anybody that people didn't have some sort of unhealthy of obsession with would be a non-story. Some guy says that the mma media is clearly not a legitimate and impartial source. That is a true statement, so I'm just wondering why everybody is all butthurt about it. It isn't just biased against the UFC, it is just plainly full of petty little J school dropouts who can neither be good journalists nor fighters, so they decide to combine their failures into one mega failure. Then I remeber, you have a hard on for Dana that makes you seeth with rage at the biggest non-story in a long time. Do you feel that what the guy said regarding the profesionalism of the media is wrong? Really? Honestly, what exactly are you so mad about? I can't help but feel sorry for a person living such a clearly miserable existance that complete non-starters of a post send him into convulsions where all he can talk about is dick and how evil some guy he has never met is. I mean in all your posts in this thread there has been nothing but a lot of your dark sexual urges and an inferiority complex.
You are complaining that MMA is not sanctioned in NY but shitting on Dana and the UFC? I am sure that if ANYONE gets MMA sanctioned in NY it will be Zuffa. Do you think it is a mere coincidence that 44 states now sanction MMA bouts? It isn't. Without Dana White MMA would probably still be unsanctioned in all states. Without Dana White MMA would be nothing but DVDs and VHSs that you could buy at local video stores. Dana isn't Jesus Christ or anything but he is damn good for MMA and I respect him for it. The UFC puts on damn good cards many times a year and I respect him for that. At least 7 of the top 10 fighters in MMA fight for a Zuffa promotion. I don't care about p4p rankins anyways as they are highly subjective. Hell, people's definition of what it means to be a top p4p fighter aren't even the same anyways. Either way, the UFC is one of the greatest things to ever happen to MMA and all of these people shitting on Dana need to get their panties out of a bunch and look at the facts. Is the man perfect? Obviously no, Is he good for the sport? Obviously, OBVIOUSLY, yes. Get your heads out of your asses please.
I must have been hallucinating when i saw those crowds at the Saitama Arena and Tokyo Dome. Shockwave had dam near 100,000 people. The UFC hasnt even approached a quarter of that. O yea and somemore.
I watch Vale Tudo Japanese MMA along with SF. I dont care much for UFC shows. I find the events rather boring tiresome and just plain ol stale.
