Just watch! The way Dana White is taking the UFC, with wanting more excitment and less quality, soon it'll become just like a side-show/freakshow like pro-wrestling is.
You guys that are educated know that pro-wrestling originally started out as a legit submission wrestling contest...but, in those days people were piss-poorly educated and would boo the long ground fighting matches...so they had to make it more exciting...enter the freakshow...
Today is different. We live in an age where people can get educated real fast...the computer or cyber age...
Do you think they would have had as many mma fans (with the knowledge we have), back in the 1890's?
Hmmm, i seriously doubt it.
Dana White seems to think that the only way for the UFC to survive is to bring in all the freaks and 'name' opponents from it's "hey day"...and include people with big mouths and arrogant attitudes that cause lots of turmoil and controversy...
sound familiar? yep, it's slowly moving the same way pro-wrestling did a hundred years ago...
who cares about talented fighters like Trevor Prangley Shmangley or any of those other losers; Horn, Busta, Lindland, Penn, etc, etc...when we've got great fighters like Freaky Tiki Ghosen, Phoney Baroni, Ken Shame-rock, Kimo Layandprayaldo and Tank NotalentAbbott!???
after all, it's excitment we want...not quality fighters...
kiss my _ss Dana White
MAN! I wish SHOOTO had more money!
If MMA was a circus, Shooto would be Cirque du Soleil and the UFC would be Ringling Brothers.
I can't stand what the UFC has done to grappling.
Pride does much better at promoting pro wrestling.
PRIDE can kiss my behind too...but at least they pay the fighters what their worth
SHOOTO is the most legit MMA organization out there...and they started before the UFC did! ...and by a pro-wrestler mind you!
if Zuffa was smart they'd be trying to unite the sport and make it more uniform and let SHOOTO help them to do so
their marketing angle now is gonna ruin it
You guys think Zuffa doesnt have the money to pay these guys top dollar?
I guess the Fertitta's casinos dont make any money!?
All i know is, they said they were gonna take MMA into the mainstream and make stars outta of their champions...
in my book, if you talk the talk then you better walk the walk...and they aint doin it...so like i said, Dana, kiss my behind...i aint supportin you guys anymore
and it isnt personal...i just think he isnt doin what he should be doin
Zero HW champion
Fluke LWH champion

THE BJ PENN FAN CLUB

i said it before anbd i'll say it again...
what Dana did with Chuck when he went to PRIDE GP was to get exposure for the UFC...
Chuck lost and Dana made an ass of himself and showed what he really is...UNFRIGGINGLOYAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!
you wanna talk about dis-loyalty? start with hypocrites like Dana White
UFC should just get all the Baroni's, Murray's, Tank's, Tito's, Kimo's and the like and then change their name to 'BAR ROOM BRAWL'
that's what they're heading to anyways
who cares about Prangley shmangley or any of those other losers; Horn, Busta, Lindland, Penn, etc, etc...when we've got great fighters like Freaky Tiki Ghosen, Phoney Baroni, Ken Shame-rock, Kimo Layandprayaldo and Tank NotalentAbbott!???
after all, it's excitment we want...not quality fighters...
kiss my _ss Dana White
