Ugh
I described him as EXACTLY what his job entails
DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS
Within that he makes a lot of decisions obviously
Of course the larger majority owners make the major decisions ... that is Business 101
Operations manager makes decisions HOW to proceed with something/someone.
This is not the person who makes decisions what to do.
Accept/reject WMMA, Accept/reject Brock - MAJOR decisions.
I'll give you example of how it could've work:
"Dana, this is Lorenzo. We will accept Brock in the UFC if he tests himself first.
- Speak with him and explain the situation, be positive and don't alienate him.
- Look through the list of organizations and advise him on a decent one, which will provide him decent income. Meet their matchmakers to make sure he gets a beatable opponent but one that lets him show his skills.
- Report us regarding the result of the fight with your review of the fight."
"Dana, this is Lorenzo. We decided to give Strikeforce WMMA division a try.
- Go through the roster and find us X women that deserve to fight in the UFC.
- Meet with Ronda Rousey and make sure she is satisfied with the contract transfer from Strikeforce to the UFC. Eliminate any discrepancies, you can use the relevant budget for that.
- Sleep with Ronda Rousey
- Work with matchmakers to distribute the first WMMA fight in the UFC in an optimal way.
- Meet the designers and superwise their work on a new WMMA championship belt.
"
etc.
