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

[sonhow]

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

I was there too and DJ being non-draw and Dana hating him go hand in hand. Because the mans one true love is money and nothing else

 

[Ozze]

Doesn't this mean he was the one trying to get him to leave? Like the main force trying to shut down the division?

That's what I get from this.

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

I'm not taking that baggage.

I told ya'll so.

Ya didn't listen

I win!

From '16 to '18 or so, there was a stretch where my buds and I bought every ppv at full price every month. So yeah, you and I can say we voted for him with our wallets if nothing else.

That's true

Who gives a fuck. It's 7 o clock in Vegas

Time for your mom to burp you?

Den Waitche the low integrity chump and spineless weasel.

The fan base was clamouring for DJ to fight TJ, and Mighty Mouse wanted a pay boost for taking that fight, UFC refused to pay out, not long after he moved to ONE in exchange for Askren.

 

[nonoob]

"Demetrius Johnson was always my friend"

Dana's lips are moving again.

DJ the GOAT!!
Went to ONEfc to become champ and take on bigger challenges.
Retired on top and now competes in BJJ.
Also with a successful YouTube and Gaming channel.

Fuck off Pink goof.

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. All risk, no reward.

A well deserved request indeed brother, DJ deserved his bread for that one.

 

[dog y]

He had replaced him with this guy.

The ole spinning top move. Still baffling.

 

[Pechan]

Dana just keeps repeating the lies until he himself believes them.

Like the great George Costanza said: "its only a lie, if you believe it is"

 

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

"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"

Conor McGregor is th pound for pound best frighter in the world????

Over DJ???

That is hilarious. What a clown

 

[fedorthegoat777]

Dana, and a lot of UFC brass, looks at the 125 division as space fillers.

The division is mostly undercard fighters until they get a title shot.

That is what it is though.

 

[whocares]

Time for your mom to burp you?

Weren't you the guy who said you were going to boycott 304 to livestream a 6 hour suckjob on Bonesy? That's probably why you missed the reference

 

[VinceArch]

I wish someone would tell Dana to shut the fuck up and call him out on his BS. He talks about the shadiness with boxing promoters when he's exactly the same as them.

 

[usernamee]

Maybe when he says "beating the drum about him" he meant he used to sit outside the arena playing a drum to let people know DJ was fighting?

 

[TrueBias]

He had replaced him with this guy.
ha

Hahahha, did askren win that fight?

 

[_manhattan]

DJ wanted to leave. He wasn't a bystander in that trade. He was a willing participant.

It's not simple, sure.

But I'm not gonna pretend Dana was "beating the drum" for DJ. He couldn't even say it with conviction. He shrugged and it sounded like a tired response fell out of a sound board. It's a phony fake answer. Dana was happy to move on from DJ.

The term constructive eviction mean anything to you?

 

[podsox]

He was at the start but nothing worked and he eventually gave up on him
