No, I dont really care about the name as much as I get tired of people hating on him when he is one of the main reasons MMA is mainstream now.
And we both like to throw the F bomb around like the word, well...."the"

Shaydawg takes everything HARD. Especially when it comes to taking it in the ass.

Yeah, after Dana White gets rich off the UFC he's going to plan a massive underground detonation to set off the fault lines and cause California to sink into the ocean.

im not hating on Dana. I actually like him and what's he's doing. I like that he stands up for MMA and is a great spokesman for the sport and standing up to boxing and also holding his ground against HBO. I dont like comments like he told a sports show once that everytime he sent a UFC fighter to PRIDE the UFC guys would kick their ass, which was a lie.
That's why I said love him or hate, you have to respect him. I like the fact that he calls out boxing and names names like Don King and Bob Arum for sucking that sport dry and how boxing charges $50 for 2 or 3 fights and MMA you pay $40 and you get 9 fights or so.
To the other guy, no I didnt say the Ultimate fighter show put PRIDE out. I said that the Ultimate Fighter show catapulted the UFC into top position in addition to PRIDE/DSE knocking themselves out. PRIDE made some seriously bad moves over the last few years but in my mind, they had the best events and showcases MMA has ever seen or may ever seen. I hope if PRIDE does finally go extinct that the UFC would adopt some of their showcase style like the lighting, big screens and holograms, and going from one fight straight to the next fight and not having to hear Rogan and Goldberg for mins and mins at a time between fights, etc....

The problem with Dana is Dana......He doesn't want MMA to be viewed as a bar fight....then he acts like the assholes that cause bar fights.....
Is that bashing?

I used to really dislike Dana, but I have to hand it to him... he is one badass business man.
1) He does'nt protect fighters.
2) He tries to set up the best fights possible.
3) He has a huge part in what MMA is today.
4) He is bringing MMA to the spotlight.
5) Most importantly, he is making SHIT LOADS of $$$$.
You might not agree with me... if this is the case name another promoter that has come close to him.
Dana isn't the Lex Luther of MMA, he is the Vince McMan of MMA!
