Am i the only one who sees Dana as his own worst enemy?

with M-1, GG, AKA, Jackson’s and all these camps who have had issue with his comments/treatment they could easily just pull out of the UFC or their control of the market and make a pretty decent income.

never really thought about it

But your word is now gospel.. Just imagine if they all pulled at the same time?!

Sarcasm? lol

I am just saying that it could lead to problems. I have some of the guys from the camp deal with Dana and it’s hit and miss with him but Joe Silva cools ALOT of the disagreements.

Dana is the bad cop.

Lorenzo and Joe are the good cops. Negotiate from the position of being a dick with dumb demands, so you can scale it back and sign the deal you initially wanted. Half the time he’s playing a persona.

oh i know the routine but his comments are attrocious

the more and more we find out about the GG situation makes it less like M-1 but more of a team ensuring everyone who helped make that fighter gets the monitary dues.

I see both sides but more and more i see that the N.American fighters got their cheques accordingly but i see GG’s stand with non-UFC/SF fighters.

haha naw i was agreeing with you man

The exact opposite could happen.. Camps join up to play the “bad cop” game against Dana.. If Blackhouse, AKA, Jackson’s and a few others wanted to have some fun – they’d have some decent pull to mess with old Dana..

The problem with that is they're not signing Dana's check and he'll tell them to eff off.

it's a union he's worried about. fighters just need to get that shit together then it'll level the playing field

Been saying this for years.

At the rate Dana White pisses of his own fighters, it won’t be long until this really happens, and I for one will fucking love it.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."
