John McCarthy rips Dana White for 'clickbait' video: 'You are so pathetic'

[KazDibiase]

John McCarthy isn’t taking a recent video released by UFC president Dana White lightly.

The video, which White released on social media Monday, targets media members and analysts for their criticism that the promotion should not have resumed events at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak until proper protocols were in place.

McCarthy, alongside his podcast co-host, former UFC fighter and Strikeforce champion Josh Thomson, are featured briefly in the video – a clip McCarthy claims was taken out of context.

“Here’s a guy that says, ‘I don’t give a (expletive) about the media,'” McCarthy said on a recent episode of “WEIGHING IN.” “First off, I don’t even look at us as media, but that’s OK. (White says,) ‘I don’t give a (expletive) about the media,’ but then he always complains about clickbait. ‘These media guys and that clickbait (expletive) they do.’ What the (expletive) did you and your little team do, man? You little clickbait (expletive). I just cracked up. I go, ‘You are so pathetic.'”

Fuck Dana White as always.

It's wild how much of the UFC is turning into some Apprentice style Trumpian garbage shit.

Why can't we just let these two fight? Two older dudes with fight knowledge. Seems like an even match on paper.

Big John is correct.

 

[Bubzeh]

The amount of disrespect Dana gets is crazy. Go fucking referee or fight in ONE for peanuts if you’re not happy.

Peasants.

Sounds like Big John is triggered he comes off as a fool in the video like always.

Dana's video was epic.

People buy Dana white propaganda all the time including sherdog. Oh he saved fighting! Blah blah.

Listen he did a good job but Dana white did it for his reasons not because he cares about the fighters. He said no one will lose their job but he's cutting fighters. Did anyone forget about that?

Edit: he was talking about no layoff for ufc staff. There's a report saying endeavor laid off employees including the ufc which Dana white just denied.

But I have no doubt in my mind they will lay off employees. They're cutting ton of fighters and I believe it's due to the pandemic

I don’t listen to McCarthy’s podcast but all I seem to hear or read is them slating the UFC

Well, did you watch Dana's video? The opposite is true

 

[Bubzeh]

So Dana is bashing on the media, but when they respond its disrespectful?

Without Dana, the majority of his “bashers” would be working in call centres.

Fact.

 

[Terrorist]

[Baltimore Bro]

I never understand why sherdogers treat Dana like some god that’s above getting criticized.....you don’t see this in any other sport but the ufc and it’s weird lol

 

[Baltimore Bro]

Yeah like how does that even makes sense Dana the one who made a whole video on people who criticized him......they’re clearly the ones in his head that’s why he made the video lol
