Say what you will about Dana White, But ...

The man delivers.

In the midst of a horrible PPV, White gives the fans exactly what they have been wanting for years. After a failed chance in PRIDE, Dana has brought Silva to the UFC to fight Chuck.

I may not agree with everything that Dana White does, but I have to admit that the guy has the fans in mind most of the time.

People scream for Rogan to be dismissed ... No Rogan on the PPV tonight. The fans want Gracie back, he is there. The fans want Wanderlie vs Liddell, there it is.

The next logical step for Dana White is to get the Hughes vs GSP fight at the Air Canada Center in Toronto. I didn't think it was possible, but after getting Wanderlai into the UFC to fight Liddel, I belive that Dana can also make this happen.

Thank you Dana, you are doing a great job!

If MMA is to challange NFL, NHL.... F1....

UFC and Pride have to work together, i think they have finally figured it out.

Theres more money to be made if they work together.

MMA isnt legal in Ontario, which Im sure you know. Dana would have his work cut out for him to get it into the Air Canada center.

That is precisely my point. He will have his work cut out for him, but I think he may just have it in him to pull it off.

Dana works hard at giving the fans what they want, and I think a show in Toronto, specifically that show, would do wonders for the UFC and the Canadian fans.

Too bad the live fans are so clueless to the larger MMA picture to know what's going on...
