But the cruel reality is
True, and the stage that he was given apparently got him enough fame to allow him to pay his mortgage teaching private lessons to kids.i really understand Al but, if he really wants things to change, he should shut the fuck up and fight. EVERYBODY, literally everybody wants more money. Dana didn't force him to fight professionally (we all know mma fighters make peanuts), he knew what he was getting into. Furthermore, he clearly doesn't move the needle. Only hardcores know who he is. It is up to him to fight more frequently and make a name for himself, then the money will come.
That's a little uncalled for. What has Dana done to make him a piece of shit?Dana is a piece of shit.

I partially disagree, being respectful hasn't helped a lot of fighters. Any publicity is good publicity. Conor Megregor, the Diaz brothers, Joana Champion, Jon Jones, Chael Sonnen, and Cody Garbrandt are some of the least respectful people in the sport. Stipe Miocic made less money than overeem at 203 and he's a respectful and exciting fighter+the hw champi really understand Al but, if he really wants things to change, he should shut the fuck up and fight.

PD: Dana is a jerk but he is your freaking boss, kid. LOTS of people have to tolerate their boss and respect him to get a raise, it's just the way it is. To insult Dana is just dumb by Iaquinta.
We've seen Tyron whine just like Al and no one cares about him still. Some people can pull disrespectful bs better than others (even more if they are champions, like the ones you mentioned). Iaquinta isn't one of them imo. at least now.I partially disagree, being respectful hasn't helped a lot of fighters. Any publicity is good publicity.

hahaha. It was sarcasm. He has lied more and cheated more people than possibly Don king.
How was life in your cave on Mars?

Lol.... you joking?That's a little uncalled for. What has Dana done to make him a piece of shit?
Indeed I am. I was hoping someone would type a book on it so I can have some laughs.Lol.... you joking?
I agree. A lot of the fighters are either too stupid or don't want to rock the boat because they have families. It's cool that Al doesn't suck up and be a beta male like Cowboy Cerrone and has a career to fall back on. Dude finishes his fights and is one of the best in the best division, he deserves more. People have to be assertive and wonder why people in other sports like football are so much better offThe fighters need to come together and demand fair representation, similar to what other professional athletes have. It would be very good for the growth and credibility of the UFC as well.
