Media Dana White - I am going after the grappling world big time.

Grappling is boring as fuck
I did watch Wrestling and Judo growing up, but only at the Olympics

I only still watch Judo mainly because I train it and I am always trying to pick up tips and I do enjoy a great Ippon like a knock out. I get many would find it boring and it is next to striking, but it's fast paced

Now on to BJJ, I would rather paint dry than watch it. I only dabble with it, so I imagine many that train it would find it interesting, but not for me

Grappling is only good when it is mixed with striking, hence MMA
 
With these types of numbers can you blame him?

Dana tried to get involved in ass slappin but Conor owns the trademark to touch butt. imo
two ratchet chicks fighting at walmart - in which neither landed a decent blow or did more than pull some hair and yall 'yeah bitch' gets triple these views. LOL.
 
watching grappling is really hit or miss. what they should have done was announced stand up only fights, with the MMA gloves. shit is way more exciting and ONE FC's dark horse to the big ballroom
Isn't this called kickboxing
 
The Ibjjf if a corrupt bag of shit but I would take them a million times over instead of having this immature embarrassment

Baaaahahahaha!@ “Waaah! Waaaaah! Dana is an immature embarrassment! Waaaaaahhh!!!”

You Dana crybabies are the best!!
 
Dana: "A lot gets lost in translation when GSP talks"

GSP may be have an accent but he's more articulate than Dana. These little freudian slips show Dana still has a grudge against GSP.

I know you call yourself a MMA fan, so let me educate you. Kickboxing, Muay Thai have different rule sets. They are fought in normal gloves. Adding the MMA gloves, with less ounces, produces way more KOs. UFC should implement a standard, one size fits all, pure STANDUP division, with their own unique rules AND MMA gloves. No, it's not called kickboxing. It's even better.
 
Getting people to watch grappling like that will require inventing a ruleset that keeps people engaged. That is challenging
 
From slap fighting to grappling. Dana is going after the whole combat sports world..

Wonder when he’ll get involved in ass slapping?

whats the story behind this? seems like nice work if you can get some intergender stuff gonig on

Only thing humiliating about it will be when fans try to shame him for suplexing a formerly sick man (Gordon) to death

Youre delusional if you think that would happen. Khamzat has nothing for Ryan in the grappling department. See how well Bo Nichols did against him?

Bo was 2-2 on points until that late sub.
Also khamzat > Bo nickals by a huge margin. Bo is a very poor man’s khamzat
 
Dana is gonna choke out his wife soon.

Gordon was also limited by the submissions he was allowed to use in that match. If Gordon could have went full Gordon, it would have been even more one sided.
 
Is this like when the USA told Russia we were building satellites to shoot down ICBMs during the 80s, aka Star Wars? Then the Russians went out spent huge rubles they didn't have resulting in some seriously hard times (I'm oversimplifying). Perhaps Dana is trying to ensure other promotions spend money on sports that will never attract eyeballs? Possibly. I don't think grappling ever makes enough money to attract serious attention.
 
with EBI rules this will turn (if not already turned) into hug fest and stalling for OT. i watched the last event where Nick Rodriguez won by OT and called gordon for a match with usada testing.
