What was the Kevion Iole article? It got lost in the sea of pages and no way am I gonna dig it up

Umm Dana needs to do classes because we need to show the seriousness of domestic violence

 

[JustBleed69]

Kevin Iole is retarded, nothing new here.

Dana's wife should also step down from whatever job she probably doesn't have because Dana makes enough money for the both of them, since she slapped him first.

Equality!

Crazy how many dudes will come on the internet and admit they'd let some girl beat them up. Honestly it’s just sad. Hope you never have to get into a relationship with some abusive female who thinks its cool to put hands on you

I was raised you never put your hands on a female in any situation, and I passed that advice/rule along to my two boys.

edit- not talking about if a woman has a gun, knife or weapon trying to actively kill me. Then they get roundhoused and uppercut until I can get away.

 

[Yep]

Do people not realize they could both be wrong? If she is the president of a company that already has a problem with domestic violence being prevelant she should also lose her job. All of you making excuses for him and the man said there’s no excuse for what he did. There’s none. He was in no danger. She appeared to be trying to leave. This is nonsense. She was wrong to slap him. I will be shocked if he remains in his position. He really has benefitted from bigger stories and from espn. But when a UFC fighter hurts his/her spouse/partner then all of that cover is gone. It will be brought up and it will be dealt with. He can’t be the face of the company when there’s a video of him hitting a woman. There’s video ffs. There’s no running from that.

No and thats not how a court in West societies would treat an incident betweem a male and his wife and mother of his children. Get it right.
Maybe between two unknown man/woman but not over a domestic incident.

If a grown ass man cant grasp by himself why there is no "equal treatment" regarding these incidents there we have the overwhelming numbers of females victims of domestic abuse including deaths as opposed to males.

And Im not even saying thats right or wrong just the way it is

Well they should judge them both as equals before the law. If women want to remove chivalry, they shouldn't expect to have special rules for them in court etc.

 

[Yep]

I think lawyers will says it’s sexist to discriminate your retaliation to assault based on gender.

if he felt a glass was coming to his face after the slap is he now justified? A fist? A kick?

she slapped and he slapped within seconds to prevent a further attack.

if he slapped her and she slapped back would it not be self defence and applauded by the world?

it’s a sexist world where woman have free reign to assault men, let’s be honest, if he hit her and she slapped him, there would be a parade

I’m pretty sure a lawyer is gonna say she is trying to leave the situation and she defends herself with the initial slap. Not that any of it matters because we aren’t talking court. We are talking about the face of a company (that has a horrible track record of domestic violence) having a video floating around of him striking his wife in public no less. That’s some brazen shit.

 

[Yep]

Tit for tat situation. If there was a real problem she could easily leave him and walk away with half of their money but shes come out and defended him.

This just in, domestic abuser defends domestic abuser.

 

[Thick_Strong_Tight]

I'd love to see the UFC fight stats on this

It's ridiculous, but I can actually see the judges giving a split to his wife on this one based on initial aggression and night club control....

 

[MileHigher]

He was hit first, why should he step down for retaliation to an assault?

Even if your position is that Dana wasn’t in the wrong or that what he did isn’t that big of a deal, you should know that isn’t realistic. There has to be some kind of consequence and there will be.

WME is a company worth over 10 billion dollars and Dana White is a public figure with ties to ESPN and Walt Disney. You’re out of your mind if you think this is just going to go away.

Are you a teenager? Do you think it makes you look good to talk like an 8th grader in a locker room? Grow up. He assaulted her first. Deal with it, you are wrong, and continue to run from the specifics of the incident.

How did he assault her first???? He held her arm when she turned away. She slapped him. You think that's worthy of getting hit? What if a girl grabbed her partner's arm when they were talking and he just slaps her in the face?
How you think he assaulted her first is beyond me.

He was hit first, why should he step down for retaliation to an assault?

Dana himself said his actions were inexcusable. Why are people trying to give him an excuse? He was never in danger enough to retaliate.

 

[taurus]

Nobody says such a blank statement. If a random woman attacks you, you have the right to defend yourself even if it would be more intelligent to walk away.

The matter here is that no man can ever hit his wife and mother of his kids, which is not a random woman.
That's the incident discussed here. Not a guy in a bar that gets suddenly attacked by an unrelated drunk chick as some retards want to present this.

If you hit your wife and she wants to press charges your are fucked. Period. Let alone if it's more than a single time.

If a grown ass man doesnt understand by himself why the male is more accountable of preventing and handling physical encounters than the female in a relationship has a serious issue (hint: check the overwhelming number of females victims of domestic abuse including deaths in comparison to males) but regardless of any debate in karate forums, saying "bu-bu-but that's sexist" won't save you in front of a court over throwing hands at your wife and mother of your kids. This is what it is.

"no man can ever hit" is a blank statement.

So if my wife (or the mother of my kids) comes at me with a knife/gun, I can't hit her to defend myself? Yeah, I'm gonna go and not agree with you on this one.

I'm not talking about the court/legal consequences. I agree, you are most likely fucked bcs... statistics. But I'm still gonna go and defend myself. Regardless of how many asshole men committed domestic violence.

does anything you said change the fact that he retaliated to an assault? absolutely not.

 

[GolovKing]

People talk about how Dana revokes people's press credentials he doesn't like. Iole speaks out against Dana all the time and the UFC still lets him in. First questioning Dana about the COVID stuff and now this. Dana even gives this guy interviews. Who the fuck does he know?

 

[snaportap21]

i think the level of outrage would need to be bigger for that.

 

[snaportap21]

The headlines on one of the biggest news sites in Australia was:

"UFC boss slaps wife in shocking footage"

So it is being framed as him assaulting his wife, not retaliating to assault. I agree it is completely wrong, but it is a standard imbalance in how these things are reported in main stream media at large, e.g. male is always the aggressor.

nothing you said changes the fact that he was retaliating to an assault. technically he's the victim here.
