Dana White throwing shade at everyone when Reporter brings up Francis PFL Deal

[gspieler]

Is he even making "10s of millions of dollars"? My question is, how much is guaranteed?
I'm willing to bet that the PFL will go bankrupt or they will have to restructure.
Has he even been paid anything yet??
By the time he fights some random no name with no one watching he will be over 40yrs old with 60yr old knees.

The UFC made a great decision by not signing him. They would be throwing money down the toilet and he'll be 50 by the time he finishes his 3 fight contract.

Stop hating the UFC for making smart business moves and not making emotional decisions.
That's why Sherdoggers are minuimn wage burger flippers and not CEOs.
You guy don't think with logic.

You think the UFC standed to lose money if they, say, signed Frank to fight Jones for $10 mil guaranteed or so?

Dana: we don't do gimmick fights.

Also Dana: we're having Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal fight for a "Baddest Mother Fucker" belt that we just made up and The Rock is going to present it to the winner.

Lol, this. The UFC has been doing gimmick fights forever. They attempt to book(presumably for the bare minimum of cost), what they think will sell. That's it. A fighter's merit is a secondary consideration for the UFC.

Dana sounds scared this time that what Ngannou has done will change the landscape of MMA

Dana should hope PFL does well. The chance another promotion ever usurps UFC as the top dog mma is 0%, for all intents and purposes. Competition doing well, would only generate more interest in mma as a whole, and in turn, the UFC. PFL doing well is basically a marketing campaign for the UFC.

His opinion changes more often than Missouri weather and he's more fickle than a teenager. Yeah. It's pretty tough to understand why anyone would do more than pat him on the head and chuckle.

Oh I dunno. Maybe because he's ran the most successful MMA business by far, all of his competitors have gone under, and the UFC has created millionaires, tens of millionaires and he's made a product that FOX and ESPN have picked up and is now worth like 10,000,000,000 lol.

Oh but he's fickle in what he says during interviews and flip flops on statements?

Yep. He did that. Not a marketing teams, advisors, business analysts, etc. Dana White. Not the fighters who actually gave him a product to exploit. It was Dana White. Dana bless.

UFC has been resting on their laurel for a long ass time. Fights just don't seem as big anymore.

 

[FightsFTW]

Dana: "I don't know much about the deal" Then proceeds to say why it makes no sense.....lmao. Ngannou living rent free in his head. Dana is pathetic and he's getting worse.

F dana

 

[MuffinsAppletree]

Dana throwing all kinds of shade right now during the post fight interviews at the Media, PFL and Francis.

Mod Edit:

Dana is a scumbag. Just ask his own mother

 

[CroCopsLHK]

LMAO Robin Black catching strays from Dana. Not surprised he turned into a full time UFC hater after unsuccessfully begging him for a job only for UFC to take down his social media for using copyrighted UFC clips.

This is the main problem with him and his ilk like Helwani, Couture, Hardy and Fitch. So blinded are they by their personal bitterness towards Dana and the UFC that they're no longer able to see things clearly or deliver criticism against the UFC with a shred of reason or legitimacy.

"Dude looks like he came out of a time machine from 97. If anyone needs a makeover it's him."
