News Dana claims Poirier didn't want to fight, Poirier responds

[kevinramsdell]

Then he needs to start taking negotiations more seriously. Does he deserve more money? Sure, but he already took a dog shit 250k flat for his two title fights, so my guess is that he asking for something similar, if not more, when just signing a new deal to fight Hooker. Dustin is a great fighter, but it seems like I'd side with Dana, he probably priced himself out of a 3-round fight.

Dustin overplayed his hand.

He should have gotten the belt or a least pulled this when he was headlining a PPV before making his play.

254 didn't need him to sell it was already stacked. The UFC isn't really hurt by this move the way Jorge and Jones were when they made their play.

I remember Dustin getting smashed by Zombie. I think he thinks he's really good.

That's how the contract work, dumb dumb

I was answering your idiotic question dumbass

 

[DestinedAussie]

Oh yes I’m sure he really negotiated himself out of it.

Hard to know when you don't hear what is going on behind the scenes. I assume it is a pretty expensive fight for Dana just paying their contracted amounts.

They have offered fighter much less after a loss....So the answer is yes they can get hit with a pay cut

When did this happen???

 

[Credo]

Dustin ducked Tony.

clear as day.

Serious or not, Dustin would win that fight with ease. And i´m not even a Dustin fan.

 

[glavinator]

Dustin ducked Tony.

clear as day.

Lol sure

When did this happen???

......you must not have followed Dana n co very closely.

 

[sdpdude9]

Dana doesn’t want to pay so frames it as Dustin doesn’t want fight because he wouldn’t take their offer. Twisting the narrative to get Dustin to agree, classic Dana move.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Dana white on Chuck Liddell - Yeah Chuck he's a great kid..

......you must not have followed Dana n co very closely.

You are just stupid I think.

 

[Sakurabaism]

Dana is a such a piece of shit. Dustin proves time and time again that he's not just a top contender but also an entertainer. What business school Dana studied in? Fertitas School of Confidence?

I remember Dustin getting smashed by Zombie. I think he thinks he's really good.

Good enough to beat Max, Eddie and Justin in a row.

 

[Chael_Sonnen]

Dana is a POS. Fuck him. He is cancer for this sport. As long as he remains, the sport will not get better.

 

[C0NCH3TO]

make this fight happen you greedy republican pig....

 

[bigmacbub]

You are just stupid I think.

Are you really disputing that Dana hasn't offered fighters a smaller contract after a loss? Am I in the fucking twilight zone?

 

[Apollo33]

Dana white offers peanuts, fighter wants more money. dana instantly slanders fighter what's new

 

[C0NCH3TO]

Greedy asshole throwing million dollar birthday parties for his wimp son and doesn’t want to pay Dustin. Sometimes Dana makes me sick.
