Media Dana: "I was the one beating the drum about Demetrious Johnson a long time ago."

I would love to see it. I used to think MM would easily win, but I'm not so sure now.

"The media claims he is the best p4p #1 in the world. I think it's Conor McGregor"

"We've been talking about shutting down the fly weight division for about 3 years"

Damn Dana was so fat back then !

A well deserved request. Go to DJs youtube and find out his fight deals and then you'll know why he just wanted a fair pay bump.

IIRC $15k max for a Bunch of Mighty's title defenses, then scumbag Dana says "If he won't fight EPO DilliSnake I'll just shut down DJ'S entire diivision".

WTF, maybe he didn't say that, maybe he was...beating a drum..

He had replaced him with this guy.

Ben's falloff needs to be studied

Tbf, ppl didn't buy Mighty mouse cards. They complained about how ahead of his division he was. Plenty of posters here ĺaughed and mocked how the UFC promoted him as the p4p1 his entire title run and now that he's gone, everyone pretends they forced him out because Dana personally hated him or something against the pleas from millions of fans the world over.

I was around for it, we all were. Let's not try and twist history just bc DJ=GOAT and Dana=ASSHOLE

That's how I remember it being
Rogan couldn't get gargle him enough
It was only when MM started complaining about his PPVs not having enough promotion that this whole burying of mighty mouse started and Dana did his best to undermine MM

The promotion for the flyweight division was bad though. Dana didn't really know how to make it compelling, and the UFC had created many different divisions that they focused more on.

Even still, the Flyweight division hardly has any fighters in it. It's more of a division they use to expand to other countries.

Oh I agree with MM mostly
But to say that the UFC and specially DW and Rogan were not tooting the MM horn for a few years would be disingenuous

Dana loved mighty mouse so much he traded him for a retired cripple. He had to share mighty mouse with the world

Proof that Dana will say anything that suits him at that given time.

The minute you're of no use to him, he will flick you aside
