UFC ( WME ) Would Have Got The Fedor Deal Done !

[blaseblah]

Nope. Dana isnt the guy to negotiate that and dana doesn't stay out of anything.

Sometimes he's forced to do things by his superiors. Like when he said Ariel was permanently banned but was forced to give him media credentials back a day later.

Exactly and Dana has allot less power with WME.

Yes...WME actually understands the grand scheme of things...sadly they are in a hole right now because of ZUFFA trying make the UFC like NFL,NHL,etc but in a weird mainstream kind of way

MMA is a fucking spectacle...WME seems to understand this.


Fedor vs Brock would've been the biggest fight ever IMO....2 million PPV sells, just with the hype of an undefeated fighter, the GOAT OF MMA vs Brock Lesnar, the current champ....With the right ads/media behind it, it would've been huge even though fedor wasn't super popular...He had the mystique of an average day man that matched up well against a loud mouth roider like Lesnar.

Sadly ZUFFA/The bald headed motherfucker aren't great business man and failed to accomplish this.

Yeah probably.

I think it could have been huge as well. Fedor would bring all the hard cores and Brock would have brought all the casuals and WWE fans.

Fedor stops UFC champs

He has stopped a couple Former UFC Champs but not any that were the Champs at the time they fought. There is a distinct and very important difference.
