                    <blockquote>

In an exclusive conversation on ESPNRadio1100 in Las Vegas, White was asked if he still wants to bring Fedor on board with the UFC.

"Nope. Now I don't have to hear about him anymore."

"Nobody cares."

"Do you realize this is something that's been created by the mixed martial arts media? Do you know how many people watched his fight the other night? 400,000 people watched it. The guy has absolutely no star power. They sold no tickets to that fight either."

"Here's the problem, the guy loses and gets to fight one of these guys? I've been saying for years this guy isn't all that. He's not great. Everybody's talking about how great this guy is. No, he's not. Now he should deserve to come into the UFC and fight the best? No way!"

"I haven't talked to any media about it. The media have turned this guy into ... Oh, this guy is this and this guy is that. The guys who fight in the UFC are fighting the very best three times a year. This guy hasn't fought anybody since 2005. The media created him and hyped him up. Not me. What do you want me to say? This is what I've been saying?"

dana dana dana....

4

lol @ dana. he's still pissed but is trying to play it off because he could never land that cash-cow.

5

 kk

6

He doesn't even believe the shit hes spewing. You can't tell me that a 32-2 fighter who has beaten numereous ex UFC champions, pride HW/wamma(lol) all that shit doesn't have a spot in the UFC.

Way to talk the business talk and insult anyone who knows what Fedor has actually accomplished.

7

I don't really agree with Dana regarding his skills, but Fedor would have never generated even close to the money it would have taken to sign him. He would have been a cash drain.

8

I dont see how this is not a win for dana.

A guy that arlovski beat and Junior dos santos OBLITERATED, just beat fedor.


His stock just dropped big time.


I dont hate fedor but when you play hardball and demand huge money and co promotion and want people to build you a stadium in russia, and then you lose.....

9

Now I am going to have no guilt whatsoever illegally streaming the PPV this weekend. To think I was going to buy it too.

10

So UFC fans get Mike Russow and Kimbo to spend their money on, but Fedor does not deserve to be in the UFC. Are you kidding me?!?!? Dana is nuts sometimes, if Fedor ever makes it to the UFC, dana will be so far up his ass it will be laughable. Look what Dana White had to say about Kimbo pre-UFC, then directly after his TUF appearance. Total two-face.

11

even after Fedor lost, Dana's looking like a complete idiot.

12

"I haven't talked to any media about it. The media have turned this guy into ... Oh, this guy is this and this guy is that.

I love you Dana but he did do this and that.

13

 Dana White:     " Oh we'll get Fedor"



Please. You're lucky to finally have a HW division. And you're 2 best fighters aren't even fighting this weekend.

14

brock lesnar showed more respect to fedor. Dana is full of shit.

15

truly pathetic and shameful on Dana's behalf

16

its funny, because he knows in reality its all bullshit



also it doesnt help that the host is just as condescending as Dana

17

 FUCK DANA

18

 FUCK DANA



oops double. my bad.

 

19

Dana White, don't hate, congratulate!

20

"sold no tickets"

???


C'mon BLAF, don't be stupid.
