No More Mr. Nice Guy: Dana White Predicts the Demise of 'Strikefarce'

strikefart.

Showtime has at least 10 viewers Dana. No need to be glib about this.

Dana is such a little bitch. He constantly feels the need to publicly act like a baby everytime he doesn't get his own way.

Dana- GROW UP. The guy is a fucking moron.

I was a big fan of strikeforce, but anyone that teams up with m1 global loses several notchs in my book. I can't stand m1 they are a fucking joke. They have ONE fighter that they latch onto and leach off of. I find it funny that Fedor thinks ufc doesn't treat their fighters right, yet he's letting these nobodies leach off of him and control him. Why does Fedor need m1 global? No one needs them. The link cp posted to their site was comical.. their roster of fighters contained 2 names lol. M1 is a parasite that attachs to Fedor and uses him to reach other organizations so that they can attempt to suck them dry too. That is all M1 is.. a fucking parasite.

1. An organism that grows, feeds, and is sheltered on or in a different organism while contributing nothing to the survival of its host.

2. One who habitually takes advantage of the generosity of others without making any useful return.

3. One who lives off and flatters the rich; a sycophant.

4. M1 global

M1 and Strikeforce are doing the same thing with Fedor as was done with Kimbo. Protecting an asset. If it gets out that Fedor can't beat the best or even the second or third best the UFC has to offer than what product do they have to sell? It's in their best interest to keep Fedor fighting marginal opponents. They have to give the illusion of a much stronger commodity (Fedor) rather than actually challenge him and possibly have him and his marketability diminished.

I agree that M1 is a joke, but D.W is just acting like a spoiled brat who didn't get the present he wanted. Why go online and say that you are basically going to try to destroy them?

Seems that as of late mma is more about promotions than the fighters, yes I know we need promotors to put on the shows so we can see the fighters we like or hate but that shit should stay in the background.

Wow, strikeforce.... hey Fedor, make sure to send us a postcard from obscurity. What a coward, all he wants to do is pad his record fighting bums. This cat and mouse game is over. He is dead to me.

Sounds like someone wants a monopoly. I like Strikeforce though. It's like the minor leagues to UFC. Keep it that way... there's always gonna be another mma promotion to put fights together with UFC rejects and wannabes, anyways. Leave 'em be. They've been doin' a decent job.

I admire and respect what DW has done for this sport and think business wise he is up there with Donald Trump. But.. when he referred to Vince McMahon as Vince like he is an old drinking buddy that cleared up alot of things for me. ie The story lines and "grudge matches" (anyone remember Hardy vs Davis)

Dana needs to do this shit to keep the media attention of the fact that he is the Don King of MMA.... If he treated fighters right, they would not go anywhere else....wait til the fighters get smart and form a union

And every who talks shit about other organizations needs to stop, cuz every single one of you will watch it, and if not you will be here on CP waiting to read the results.... If you don't care about any other fighters than the UFC roster, why are you here in CP....get you news from ufc.com...

We are all fans of MMA, that is why we are here.. Who is DW to tell us what to watch???

We have one pussy cry baby here already...is DW BlowJob Penns long lost brother?

I am starting to be embarressed to say I am from Boston.....First New Kids On the Block and now Douche Bag White!!!

To me, Dana just seems to know more about the MMA business than anyone else out there right now. He appears to do everything right. Like him or hate him, you can't deny what he has accomplished for this sport.

there is exactly one fight which i would like to see in the ufc with fedor and thats the fight against lesnar.
no wait.. what i really want to see ist brock getting caught using roids.

Dana is sick. Saying he will never sing anyone that signs to do ea sports mma. Dana is one sick puppy. Calm down

I think Dana can be mad, I see it this way. Fedor is the smoking hot chick that everybody wants to bang, but she has a boyfriend yet also sleeps around with everybody but you. That's why you talk trash about her and call her a slut.

So she breaks up with her boyfriend(after all, he was a loser that sold t-shirts) and so you try to get her to want you. You got a lot of money so you promise her all the nice things, you even say she doesn't have to be monogamous, she can go sleep around every Thursday night if she wants.

So everybody thinks you're going to get this hot chick then all of sudden she starts dating this dorky kid that you were kinda cool with at first only because you know you are way more popular than him and have more money and better friends.

In the end the dorky kid is getting to bang the hot chick while you are stuck hanging out with the fucking t-shirt guy.

How does the man that built MMA to it current status have zero creditability Bleve? Hype man or not he’s the man responsible. I think that demotes you to having zero creditability. Are the Russians paying you off? I think this blog has had enough of your attempt at sounding smart by disagreeing with anything UFC related. Do us all a favor and stop talking.

@vegasdirt:
if dana built mma to its current status, david hasselhoff reunited germany.

The Hoff kicked over that damn wall and tea bagged the russians with his harry junk. DW is the face man for the UFC. You gotta give credit where its due. With out DW and his boys at the UFC you wouldn't have SF or Affliction. M1 would exist because the Russian mafia always has existed. They made this shit main stream.

Interesting situation here.

DW was getting support of the more fans after the Fedor deal didn't go through. They eased off of him.

As time passes and we keep seeing DW run his mouth more and more the momentum will shift again.

"They should've stayed the way they were"...that says it all my friends. You're business man, we get it, but you're supposed to keep your true intentions to yourself. Yeah he's upfront sometimes, but he's upfront about his monopolizing intentions. Being upfront about wanting to be a monopoly does not warrant respect.

And who is he to tell another business "No, don't expand" He's pretty much saying "Don't get more publicity for MMA, don't earn more money, don't pay the fighters and the staff higher salaries"

Horrible HORRIBLE publicity here for DW and UFC.

As a MMA fan, this trend is disturbing. DW is like BJ Penn with his "scorched earth" tactics.

Bleve you big name caller you. My problem with competition is only when they F*uck you outa seing the fight you wanna see. Otherwise its great. I don't think I'm outa line in saying "everyone" is getting tired of your same old DW, UFC bashing posts. Switch it up a bit, take a different stance. Then I will listen. I'm no UFC "groupie" I loved what afliction did for the sport. Gave a home to the disgruntled fighters like Arlovski.

VegasDirt:

Sorry about the name calling, but telling me to shut up because I disagree with about 95% of this board is, well, reminiscent of a certain bald headed promoter who wears extra tight jeans.

You must have your ear to the virtual ground to know what "everyone" is thinking. I might be in the minority but it gets a little tiring to hear how stupid/greedy/scared Fedor, and the raw raw UFC chants.

BG said something today that I liked in regards to Fedor:

"He doesn't take his career cues from American bloggers. He has a personal priest. He's a strange dude, and I can't blame him for just living his life the way he wants to live it. If you don't feel complete without seeing Fedor Emelianenko fight Brock Lesnar, then you need re-examine your priorities, hater."

I like that people are Dana haters, it just proves how right he is. Some of you tools will never learn. UFC is the best all the rest are shit, live it, learn it.
Strikefarce wont last a year.
Fedor is pathetic, so is his fans.

bleve=Fedor Fanboy.

I love how half of you morons cant even debate a point or have an argument without calling names (Godsloneranger) it really just shows your IQ and knowledge of MMA.

@JoeDirt

How will Strikeforce being successful force better pay for the fighter? What because they will have another option? They already do and no one is getting paid better than UFC Fighters! Top guys in either Org are getting paid great while the lesser known fighters will be paid less until they win fights and get a few fans. Its simple business economics. And why is everyone so worried what fighters get paid? If they sign on the dotted isnt it their problems not some whiny ass fanboy?

Cock Lesnar, don't be stealing my material. dick.

@kadumel

I meant old as in 34, you're not far behind me champ. Guess we both like hanging with the kids eh?

I don't have a problem with everyone who has a differing opinion, my problem began with the overwhelmingly gracious coverage of everything ufc on this blog, which I was a regular on before it was like that.

I can be an asshole, lonely and pretentious is probably a stretch. Continue your sleuthing, even on this thread, and you'll find others who are saying the same things.

Bleve, dont worry about kadumbass he is just a sad tweener child who doesnt have a clue what he wants to be in life so he has decided on a part time job in being a complete "ASSHOLE". He thinks because we are older that we somehow don't know anything when in fact WE have forgotten more than this little douchebag will learn in his life.
His friends like 831 son are even worse than that, so don't take it personal, just keep on saying what you want and let young dumbass's or in his case KAdumbass rattle their heads, they have nothing better to do.
As for opinions, as long as we are older then by GOD we are right and the younger guys are fucking wrong...live with it you young fucks, ha!
