Dana White responds to Mark Hunt

Yeah right.

Could the whistle blower law apply to this? It's pretty clear that this is retaliation for his lawsuit and I know in some cases that you are protected from retaliation, legally.
Or it could be because he admitted he has CTE. Once you say that you can never, ever, ever fight again.
 
There are dozens of international cards where the UFC has to act as its own commission since there isn't a local regulatory body.

This is the reason Marc Ratner is an executive in the company - its a very important position.

So it is misguided to say 'the onus is on the commission' because in part, the UFC itself may act as the commission throughout the course of their schedule. Further, working for the UFC is a privilege, not a right, and they can set whatever standard of health requirements they like, above and beyond the regional medicals of the commissions they commonly work with.

This is common sense.

This would be true if it was, well,.. true.

Sydney has its own commission, so please stop reaching for the sake of it.

You can't diagnose yourself.

You are being silly.

That's like saying that since someone admitted they are going to die one day, that they are too close to death to fight.

The likelihood that a fighter will have CTE by the time they are done fighting is pretty high and pretty well known, but unless there is actual evidence, you cannot act on it and it also walks the border on discrimination(Using medical condition as a reason for not allowing someone to work, especially when you know it not to be confirmed/true is illegal.)
 
You are a moron clearly , i honestly hope you are young . And its not like the nsac approved him but a shitty foriegn commision did ,basically his 2nd home aproved him .

Gsp isnt 43 fighting for 20 yrs against hws , so gsp believes in aliens and thinks he has had contact how the fuck do you know he hasnt you arrogant douche ? Comparing those too arrnt even close , how is gsp talking about aliens which millions do everyday worse then a guy admiting to memory loss stuttering and sluring his words ?

This ufc is being mean bs is the dumbest shit ive ever heard grow up kid he is 43 and clearly starting to suffer from cte , and wont be fighting again until he is seen by specialist .

The fucking guy is already sueing them and then makes claims like this they would have to be retarded to let him fight without him coming back to the u.s and go through a battery of test but anybody with a functional brain knows he has brain damage and is playing the game , you are either young or very naive / dumb .

Ps. Why does it matter ? Wow ! Because they dont want the guy to fucking die in the cage is that to hard to comprehend ?

Calls someone a moron, thinks anything that isn't his home country is a "shitty foreign commission", can't spell "approved" while calling someone a "moron". We have a winner!
 
Yeah right.

Could the whistle blower law apply to this? It's pretty clear that this is retaliation for his lawsuit and I know in some cases that you are protected from retaliation, legally.
Hunt says he's slurring his words, and developing a stutter from the brain trauma he has received from fighting. Dana is doing the right thing pulling him from the fight.


Give it two years and Hunt will be suing the UFC for giving him brain damage.
 
"My body is f**ked but my mind is still here,” Hunt wrote in the article. “I’ve still got my senses about me and I know what’s right and wrong, which is the main thing. Sometimes I don’t sleep well. You can hear me starting to stutter and slur my words. My memory is not that good anymore. I’ll forget something I did yesterday but I can remember the s**t I did years and years ago.”

I'd not let him fight either.

Holy shit !! I misspelled a word call the police ya clown , and yes the ufc is home based in nevada and all commisions follow the nsac word in the u.s.a so what they say matters more considering 90% of there card are there .

So take your b.s else where , because you havent disproved anything i said just cried like hunt about what i said .
 
Yeah right.

Could the whistle blower law apply to this? It's pretty clear that this is retaliation for his lawsuit and I know in some cases that you are protected from retaliation, legally.
It's not in retaliation to his lawsuit. It's in retaliation to him saying he has early signs of CTE. I like mark hunt but he's a ducking idiot for doing that and there is nobody to blame but himself for this and for if we never see him fight again.
 
Hunt has taken a few to many punches I think... lol... lots of fun though :D

You are well known around here for trying to act like an insider and giving out faulty information.

Reread what I wrote:

Further, working for the UFC is a privilege, not a right, and they can set whatever standard of health requirements they like, above and beyond the regional medicals of the commissions they commonly work with.

The commission in Sydney is only a few years old in regards to MMA regulation, and is superseded by the UFC's own health requirements. There is no such thing as 'a right to fight' for the UFC.

Hunt has created a liability by publicly announcing he believes he has brain damage. There is no version of reality where the UFC doesn't react to that statement. Saying this is only the purview of the local commission is stupid at face value.
 
Yeah right.

Private fucking corporation

“Listen, sometimes you gotta protect these guys from themselves and that’s what we’re looking into right now. He made a statement that I’ve hated him forever,” White said. “I don’t hate Mark Hunt at all. I never hated Mark Hunt. He knows that. I was actually really good with Mark Hunt.”

White was asked if Hunt will take back the things he said and tell him he’s sorry.

“I don’t expect an apology at all, no,” White said with a laugh.
Lol
They kept Hunt in fighting limbo for what 2 years?,because he was to heavy to fight at HW and they didn't want to release him from his previous contract with PRIDE.
Yeah."i was actually really good with Mark blah!blah!blah!"

Also I don't agree with the mess Hunt is doing with his own career too!
But
if he is able to take some money from WME or Bork Lazer,im fine with it.
