That voice,receding hairline and fucked up teeth makes him look extremely unreliable and unfit to represent a company in public.
 
Bros with Fertitas. Dana invested over 250K of his own money.
 
Jeshhhh ts you want to date him or have a company president?

There are a lot of reasons to question his ability as a president but his hair line teeth and voice aren't usually high on the list of traits that a good ceo is looking for.
 
It's kind of messed how lucky this guy got. How did he become bros with the Lorenzo?

Edit: Looked it up. He went to school with Lorenzo. Skipped town instead paying his debt to mobsters. Met Lorenzo at a wedding in Vegas and reunited the friendship.

Rest is history. Really, he owes everything to Lorenzo taking a chance on him

He won the primary in Wisconsin.
 
Regardless of what anyone says the man has done a great job of growing the sport.

You should be thankful he ended up the president.
 
I'm not sure teeth are the number 1 criterion in candidate selection for such positions.
Anyway, it's not what you know, it's who you know
 
Stop it! He´s good and there are few that could handle this circus as well as Dana
 
As much as he is a biased clown, he's better than some mundane businessman running it. He's just like your average guy.

Can you imagine some droll suited up 60 year old businessman heading press conferences?
 
Let's just put it this way, there's not a snowball's chance in hell of him ever running the UFC if he didn't happen to be friends with a couple of billionaires.
 
Look at One FC and WSOF. Can you name anybody who works there. From the prez to the ring girls without google. Dana is great for the sport.
 
I didn't know it was a beauty contest. Good thing Trump is so good looking, otherwise he wouldn't be president of his companies.
 
By spit shining Lorenzo's private properties.

He was a gymnastic teacher or something before that.

he ran a low value company that was losing money. they didn't just pick him. he picked the sport, and them. and they made it successful.
 
He developed some balls then convinced everybody that he was just a "keep it real" kind of guy, then used that to his advantage to sell a variety of bullshit to his consumers.

Not saying they picked him. I'm saying there's not a chance in hell he'd get anyone who wasn't his friend(s) to put him in charge of an organisation. I'm not denying he had a part in making the UFC a success, I'm saying he'd never in a million years gotten the chance if he didn't have the right friends.
