The problem is that Dana insists that Barao is one of the p4p best in the world while failing to actually market him as such because Jon Jones, and lack of realization that casuals think "bigger = better" when that's actually not the case. Yet, the UFC's marketing angle is focused almost entirely around this. "I don't read any of them" lol smooth...
Dana did indeed come off quite badly there. He thought that Ben was questioning Barao's skill, I understand how Dana got there, but he was wrong and failed to admit so after the fact.
Dana makes a good point when he says Barao is a badass who finishes fights & that's what fans want. Other than that he looks completely ignorant.
I don't know why Dana even responds to this stuff. He would be better off if he kept his mouth shut. He comes across as a stubborn bully.
