		<description>I completely agree with Toughill's Penis.  All of these bandwagoners jump on any idea that makes them sound knowledgable about the sport, and it is so trendy to not like Dana White.

We wouldn't be watching any MMA if it weren't for White and the Fertittas!  There would be no EliteXC, no Affliction, no Xtreme Couture... and Gary Shaw would probably be getting ass-raped in a prison shower somewhere.  Without DW you wouldn't have a BJJ school on every street corner, TapOut would be a failed clothing brand along with all of the others out there, and all of the fighters that now have a chance to fight in small shows all the way up to the UFC would not have any place to fight.  DW is not just responsible for the UFC's success, but for all of the MMA businesses that ride on their coattails.  

And as fans we should all thank him for what he has done - for all the fights we can now see in the UFC and other leagues, for all of the fat fucks that squeeze into Affliction shirts to look tough, and for everything else that is MMA, including this site!</description>

		<description>Everyone likes to preface theire statements with "I don't like Dana White, but..."  How about you ass-pirates start waking up and realizing that he is the only one who has made this sport successful.  

Gary Shaw is a loser who looks like someone who should have to notify his neighbors when he moves in next door that he is "registered" with the state, and should be restricted from living within a mile of an elementary school. 

Also, how many other sports have minor leagues that are money making machines?  Very few, and if they do, those minor leagues don't try to operate like they are the same as the big show in town.  You don't see minor league baseball trying to offer the same salaries and put on the same scale events as the MLB because they would fail miserably.  At least some guys like Cuban understand you have to start small if you are going to enter as a competitor. 

I just hope EliteXC's inevitable failure on CBS won't stop another network from eventually making a successful deal with the UFC.  If Shaw's fat ass holds this sport back, I hope he will take the blame he deserves.  But, since it is so cool to be anti-Dana White, people will probably find a way to blame everything on him instead.</description>

		<description>@KCC,
I agree. What I like about ShoXC though, is that our fighters start out or end up in KOTC. That show is allowing some good fighters to have a middle ground. Hopefully somebody sees the potential and buys the show from Shaw. My boy Joe Frainee is slated to fight in ShoXC after he gets a couple tune ups in KOTC. We'll see what happens. I'm going to fight in KOTC in August but I don't have ambitions for UFC or ShoElite.</description>

		<description>@ MMA Coach,

There is no bigger douchebag than Gary Shaw bro, I really hope for the sake of MMA that Elite XC folds and Affliction/HDNET Fights become the main UFC competitor</description>

		<description>I'm not a fan of DW, I always like to mention that, but how smart does he look now? The right combo of business savvy and douchebag personality always makes the c.r.e.a.m. and we know cream rises to the top. Rich get richer...</description>
