He never passed the torch, that’s why.

GSP exposing the UFC's promotional tactics in front of Dana.
*Iim in the same boat as you Nick, they took some line that i answered in a question maybe 3 years ago and put it in the promo"
''I thoze know wen it was they poot that in the promo and that why we gonna make money on Saturday"
Trashes UFC's business practices, kills all the buzz while pink goof is standing there wishing these guys really hated each other lol
GSP was a star when MMA took a turn. The fighters were fighting for "the sake of MMA's future success and legitmacy" before Georges. It became a serious business during Georges time. And Georges took it serious.
He tried to get out of his UFC contract. A similar move that made Randy hated by UFC.
Anyone remember when he went on the MMA hour and said he was a free agent?

“The UFC told us they would take a huge financial risk to have me back and they would need to spend a lot of money to reintroduce me to the new audience,” said St-Pierre, who indicated money was the ultimate factor as to why a deal wasn’t reached. “What we asked for was really – trust me – really reasonable.”
When negotiations resumed after the sale was finalized, new ownership told St-Pierre and his team the deal they had been discussing with Fertitta was off the table.
“It was like a shock to us because we felt like we were making progress,” St-Pierre said. “We were almost there. When [new ownership] told us I got angry and I talked to my advisor and I decided to hire the best lawyer in the business. His name is James Quinn.”
dana hated gsp because he was one of the only fighters he didnt feel he ever got the better end of the deal with. gsp was always fine just not fighting unless he thought he got his fair share
I think he didn't like him because his nature is completely contradictory to his business sense. Once GSP had the belt again back in '08, he got himself expensive agents and management. Dana and the team had to negotiate with them, and he was on a really good wicket for the duration of his reign.
He only wants to fight Khabib and Dana won't let that happen as GSP vacated after beating Bisping and I don't think he bought the colitis thing. To some extent, I can see why he wouldn't allow that superfight as GSP could probably dethrone their second biggest LW star and then vacate again.
I doubt that. He's not exactly a liar - the guy is a candidate for GOAT and he freely admits that he's scared of fighting. Dana also confirmed to some degree that he wanted the fight because he claims to having said no to GSP because he knows he won't defend the belt. His words.if gsp really wanted to fought khabib he would of but gsp is using the media saying something that he knows isnt true.

GSP also turned down the Silva fight. At the time it was the biggest fight Dana could make.
Dude, he was chasing the Khabib fight well before he retired. He went on JRE and explained in detail how he was trying to get the fight and why Dana and brass wouldn't have it. Dana even commented that his management were after the fight and he explained he wouldn't be getting any other title shots.gsp said on ariel radio show before he pr retirement that i dont have the fire to fight.
he used the mediato play the victim card and his fanboys ate it up.
dana knows gsp didnt want the fight but would make the fight cause any time gsp fights it a money fight.

Educate yourself instead of being a blind hater.

You got a source on that? Or do you just make shit up and ignore facts just to suit your bitter narratives?he could of signed to fight the winner of ufc 229 before but didnt. he went on ariels radio show and said i dont have the fire to fight.
gsp used the media to play the victim card while khabib was suspended and while he not in the testing pool/
gsp will never fight khabib and gsp is why. the ufc doesnt turn down money fights that how you know gsp is why it didnt happen.

I'm not gonna continue arguing with you. GSP has never played the victim. I'm pretty sure the guy doesn't know how to be carniving or put up a front. In the Ariel interview you're talking about he even acknowledges that now that he's retired it might be for the best as he might get have gotten his ass kicked. How's that for honesty?
And of course it would be a big money fight, but Dana knows the price of that if GSP won - one of their biggest stars in Khabib loses his invincibility and his belt and GSP retires again, therefore making any other LW title fight redundant. He's a business man and also holds unreasonable grudges - he hates GSP for vacating the MW strap and making a shitshow out of the MW division for a while there. He doesn't want that again in any division.
And that last sentence is also a lie. GSP was still in the USADA testing pool during that period as he was still under contract and hadn't formerly retired until the beginning of this year.
Also have a look at the date on the Ariel interview. It's the same day he announced his retirement which was February this year and he was chasing the fight as he explained on the JRE podcast late last year. Because you're lazy and don't do your homework, here's the interview. He spells out the whole timeline in the first two minutes:
Yeah, I shouldn't. It's NYE and I'm sick and stuck at home with nothing to do. That's the only reason I spent 15 minutes on this idiot.Good rebuttal but I dont know why you waste your time on the morons who just post random hater BS and dont have a clue what they are talking about.
