Is Dana hated on simply because he says and does exactly what he wants?

[MMA_AZ]

Is a good amount of the hate towards Dana just jealousy? I watch the UFC almost religiously and enjoy it more than any other sport. He's the main guy responsible for it. Let's pretend the reebok deal doesn't exist, what's the real reason for not liking Dana? Because he says and does whatever the fuck he wants?

No he does alot more than that. But it certainly is part of it.

And in here, it can turn on a dime. Depending whether he's loving your guy. Or screwing him over.

Mostly he lies alot though. That's hard to take for most people.

I think it's more because he is a greedy business man and has proven time after time that he really doesn't know a whole lot about MMA.

lol, the fertitas are the main reason behind the success of the UFC

Dana was just lucky to have rich friends

 

[MMAguitarman]

I think it's more cause he comes across as a douche?

 

[Arm Barbarian]

More likely because he is an endlessly greedy ass-hat, who spews BS virtually everytime he opens his stinkhole

He's hated on because he's in charge and he makes 50 decisions a day that we would hate to have to deal with.

He would be a lot more tolerable for me if he didn't lie so much, he is a compulsive liar.

 

[Mondo Freaks]

He acts kinda unprofessional at times but he does his job pretty well. I can see why some people hate him, he can be vile to some fighters

Pretty sure nobody's actually 'jealous' of Dana. Is it even possible to be jealous of someone you only know from TV? The reason he's hated on are definitely some of his strong opinions, but there's also the fact that he's repeatedly been caught in lies, inconsistencies and going back on his word.

He's also not the main guy responsible for the UFC's success, he's the UFC's front man to be sure and has played a huge role in the UFC since it was acquired by Zuffa, but the main guys - or should I say the guys actually pulling all the strings - are the Fertitta brothers.

They didn't just hook Dana up with a job in the UFC you numbnuts. He's the one that saw the potential in the organization in the first place.

 

[blewgums]

It's because he won't go to some Sherdogger's sleepovers and they get their feelings hurt.

Waaaaa! Waaaa!

Numbnuts here too.

Majority of the population only like people who conform and follow the social rules. It makes them feel better about their lives.

If you go into a DMV and yell, this place sucks, people will shun you and take the DMV's side, but deep down inside they all know I'm right.

Not sure why people bring up him "lying." He's a fight promoter... it is all part of the entertainment.

It's ALMOST like getting mad at Tom Cruise because you know he's not a Fighter Pilot IRL.
Media news lie to people on a daily basis and they're ok with it as long as they do it in the right manner.

If a guy in a T-Shirt/Jeans and Tattoos spill the same news in an aggressive manner, most people will call bullshit and HATE.

That doesn't take talent. I loved UFC pre Zuffa, and if I had friends with billions of dollars, I would have said "You should buy the UFC!!! That'd be awesome!"

Of course, I suppose another possibility is that I am a business genius.

they were the only reason Dana got close to the UFC, without their money, he'd just be another sherdogger

We have Dana to thank for the unified rules, which are just stupid, and the 10 point must scoring system which is beyond retarded,

Dana is the Don King of MMA,

And plebs like you are too stupid to understand that

 

[Calipwnia]

First off. He does what the Ferititas want, not what he wants. Second the Reebok deal is complete shit.

Oh, you would of made a business decision on solely, "I loved the pre zuffa ufc der der der". Then nothing but huge success after huh. Knucklehead

"Hey Billion air friends, give me a few million dollars.... trust me it'll be worth it"

if you think that's how it went, your a moron. Waste of internet space. Give up your computer.
