It’s funny that Dana is slagging Tom for selling shirts. I guess he forgets that he was a FUCKING JAZZERCISE INSTRUCTOR before his friends helped him out with THEIR millions. Yes he has done well with that which he was given. But I’d take selling T-shirts over Jazzercise any day. But I wouldn’t make Assfliction shirts even if I knew douchebags would buy ‘em like hotcakes.

YES DANAL, you were unable to bring in the best fighter outside of the UFC (Fedor) to fight the best fighter in the UFC (Couture). And you got beat by the T-shirt guy.

Or does this T-shirt (Tom Atencio) guy know how to run a business without blowing 44 million bucks of your friends/investors money to figure out what brings in the cheese? Check mate asshat.

Dana made MMA? WTF…

Last time I checked it was the fighters that made the sport and it’s Dana that stopped the fight that everyone wants to see happening (Couture versus Fedor) because he refused to let Fedor fight in sambo tournaments and get paid a little better…

He under pays his fighters and reaps the benefits. He is a turd.

So after all the bantering, here we are. There will be two fight cards tomorrow night and quite frankly I am not remotely interested in Affliction.
Dana made MMA what it is today in terms of promoting and putting the right people in place - no one can argue that.
In the end, we reap the benefit of competition so stop the bitching seriously

@ Kim Couture is a cunt:
funny you say that, since as far as I know he’s the only event promoter/clothing company owner in this business who actually has had a pro fight - and won at that.

Tom Atencio’s clothing line is for posers and low level coke dealers. Tom Atencio looks like a emo pussy in a 120 dollar shirt. His card is great, however, he will fail.

How about watch the UFC for free then steal Affliction off of the internet and watch it on Xbox 360.

Earth to Bonehead. You are retarded. Retarded as in the guy who calls you up and forgets why he was calling you.

Dana just said, IN THE SAME STORY YOU JUST READ, that it took him 44 mil. to get it right. He’s not saying the UFC is doing ok because of his background. He is saying because of the 44 mil.

DOOOOOOOOUUUU YOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUIIIII UNNNNDDDEERRRRSSSSTTTTTAAAAAANNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSS???????????????????????????????

Atencio is a clothes salesman…
Dana is an Ex-Jazzercise instructor…..

Ohhhhh…Sorry Dana…I didn’t see your connection to MMA as being better until now….I really see how Jazzercise connects with MMA…..

(Please don’t give me the Cardio bullshit answer either….)
