Now in case you guys don't remember, Dana is actually under contract with WME and the contract expires next year.


I don't know if Dana will be at tonight's event, we know he has not been at the last few ones and didn't hold a press conference in the last PPV and was not at the weight ins yesterday.

Given the importance of his position and the amount of money involved they would 100% start negotiations months in advance for a renewal not to mention that they would also need months to prepare a replacement if he is not coming back.

I started wondering if he either decided not to renew, I know in the WWE side TKO seems to be lowballing people, or if they are in negotiations so Dana is just focusing on securing what he wants before losing more sleep over the company.

There is also the whole TKO boxing and apparent reef with Turki that ended up with the whole Noche and Canelo fukkery, who knows how TKO saw that, there its a lot of money involved with Turki.

So its the goof on his way out or is he just taking some time off from the public side of his job...or just don't want to deal with more JJ questions.
 
Dana will keel over in a hotel room with coke and hookers before he retires.
 
It seems like hes been one foot out for years now. And as of recently hes seemed almost all the way out. I hope not though. As much as he can be a pain in the ass, the sport is better with Dana around.
 
Dude does have a family I'm sure he likes seeing from time to time and the last few cards have been shit his presence wasn't needed

He will come out for the big nights like UFC 317 and UFC 319

Dana was at the last PPV, he simply didnt attend the post fight press conference. Dana also takes a month off every summer to go on vacation to his house in Maine or on a boat etc.

Also he isnt needed and hasnt been needed for a decade. UFC runs itself, its a well oiled machine, nothing changes whether hes there or not. Fights get made, venues get set up, fighters fight, get paid, bonuses awarded, fighters interviewed etc.

whats funny is for so long people are like Dana needs to go and then when hes not at a press conference to give an opinion on a fight sucking or saying we match make on Tues people flip out like omg.
 
He's jumping ship to boxing? I think
 
UFC is dying. He needs to go and someone new who actually gives a shit about the sport steps in
 
Also Don King put another fight together just last month. I thought he died years ago.
So did I, this reminds me how I thought my sister's dad had been dead for years and I was visiting her and late at night he knocked on the door and I saw him through the window and thought he was a zombie.
I stood there just staring at him and was frozen with fear bc that fucker was dead, but then he wasn't but he is now though, I think.

It's not that I care about his thoughts. I just want him to have to at least face the softball media questioning about Jones at this point.
 
Could we be so lucky?! Apparently Dana leaving also terminates Rogan's contract, so this will be something to celebrate x2.
 
Who's gonna replace him if so?

Rich Franklin?
Mark Coleman?
CM Punk?
Shane McMahon?
Tito Ortiz?
Dwayne "the rock" Johnson?
Mickey Rourke?
Elon Musk?
