He's not the only one who talks about Dana negatively. Couture, of all people, has. Dana has been TREMENDOUS help for this sport but I don't think he fits in well where the sports should be goin from now on.
i agree, id like to point out that articles like this, when you read that both fighters want the fight, and they both say its the promoter..damn i get soo pissed off, that some ******* who aint even fighting is the reason one of the biggest possible matchups of all time in mma is being held off
Fedor really seems to like American wrestlers for some reason, he considered Mark Coleman one of his few friends from Pride, and seems to like Couture as well. He does however, seem to have a real dislike of Barnett.
Dana makes himself look real childish with that comment about Fedor not being a top 5 heavy. What is his top 5 then?
Dana was definitely talking out of his ass to say Fedor is not even a top five heavyweight. Fedor earned his championship by defeating the other top fighters that were KO'ing or submitting every fighter in their path - namely Nogeira and Crocop. Couture has taken over the top spot due to his domination of two younger, stronger heavyweights of the UFC - Gonzaga and Silva. Gonzaga's brutal KO of Crocop absorbed the influence of the Pride heavyweights showing the UFC fighters to be superior to Pride under UFC rules. I would have liked to have seen Randy fight Big Nog. There's no reason for him to turn down that match up as Nog was one time the man at heavyweight and is still easily the top two or three in the heavyweight rankings.
