Not a bit. He's a salesman and a snake. It is what it is.Fair enough. Wasn't sure if you were actually trying to defend him.

Did you see Frankie's explanation yesterday where he says he sent both Dana and the UFC his MRI that shows he had a torn groin? I mean you have guys like Ivanhoe who are even so delusional he'll even go as far as saying something like "nowhere did Frankie say he sent told them BEFORE Dana called him. Even though it's obvious he did or he wouldnt be so pissed. I guess it's easier for some of you guys to believe pro fighters are sensitive little pussies who have no reason to be upset with a promoter who tells lies for a living and routinely throws his employees under the bus.
Provide proof that Frankie said he sent them to Dana before the inquiry.
Most bosses or clients won't give a shit why you didnt show for something important only that you didnt. Dana is no different. Cry somewhere else emo Franky.
I swear half the people on sherdog are probably unemployable.
Dana isn't wrong with his statements, they are totally correct, it is not in his best interest or goes along with business sense to add superfluous information.
Why is it superfluous? it is superfluous to the UFC as an org,
1. offer Frankie fight
2. Frankie declines
that's all you need to know.
This is just like real life, you ask 2 contractors to paint your house, one guy says he can only paint 1 hour every other day and not on weekends b/c he has to pick up his kids and take watch the football game.
The other contractor says, yes.
Do you really give a shit that the other guy has other shit to do, or do you just want your house painted?
You can offer a fight to a guy who isn't medically cleared all you want... The fight won't be allowed to happen though.
Well, I believe it since most of Sherdog already knew he was injured and couldn't take the fight before we even knew Dana reached out to Edgar. People already knew it here somehow, I'm sure Dana should've known and shouldn't be so offended by Edgar when Dana himself put him in the same class as fighters who basically ducked the fight.Provide proof that Frankie said he sent them to Dana before the inquiry.
Yep. Frankie had notified the UFC ten days prior so Dana definitely knew. But the idea was put out there like he was exaggerating an injury he basically made up only after being "offered" the fight.Well, I believe it since most of Sherdog already knew he was injured and couldn't take the fight before we even knew Dana reached out to Edgar.

Uhh because Dana was aware that Frankie was unable to fight and was kept in the loop of his surgery, then used him to further the star power of another fighter on the roster at the expense of besmirching Frankies character. Frankie, an employee who played balled with the UFC for years and was their champion.

All of this. Kudos to you! Kudos!
bro ur so right besided the phone call. if frankie was fit for fight dana would have never called him.The fact that DFW asked Edgar if he could fight means nothing. If Frankie Edgar was fit and healthy and had said yes he still wouldn't have gotten the fight.
