I wouldn't care if Peyton Manning got beat at Austrailian rules football. Bad example. Would it matter if Lance Artmstrong lost at BMX??? I hope someday Dana can get over this fear of image loss, otherwise how will MMA ever become an Olympic sport??? Belts change hands so often now it think they have lost some of there magic. I'm more concerned with watching the best fights.
I like Dana, I think he is great for MMA but he is still the guy who invented "Interim Champion."
