The problem is clear....it's with AKA's management, not the fighters.

Glad Fitch is back.

Agreed. I thought fighters were tough and independent and the least likely to be yes men.

Because that "fucking retard":

1: Came to the Fertitta's and convinced them to buy the UFC

2: Took the UFC to it's current heights

3: Works insane hours trying to protect, grow, and build the UFC brand

4: Makes Lorenzo a ton of money

5: Would give his life for the Fertitta's. (Loyalty counts in business, it's HUGE)

Say what you want, but Dana has done an AMAZING job. Is it possible that the UFC is nearing a time when a cooler head needs to be in charge? Probably, but who knows? Plenty of nice suits could come in and completely destroy the UFC. It's not as simple as "Dana cusses and is mean to fighters". Like him or not, he gets the only results that count: REVENUE.
