    Dana's a former Golden Glove boxing champ or something...he at one point knew his way around the ring. He was then a promoter for a while...not sure on how successful, but I don't wanna say very.
    Boxing is like a handjob, and MMA is like a hot sweaty orgy with 5 chicks. I could never say no to a handjob, but which would you rather have?

Dana Whites actualy a Boxing man deep down,think he's Boxed himself a bit and was something of a low level promoter?
    True, Iknow a man, works in training and promoting fighters, rolls his eyes when Dana calls and prety much uses him to get his fighters onto the big stage.

    But like I said. All credit to White for getting the sport on its feet.

    He was a very low key boxing promoter.

    He managed and promoted Chuck Liddel and Tito Ortiz before the ufc president thing..... Don't know who else, but that is how he got involved with ufc to begin with.

    Yeah, i watched that whole special when Dana was supposed to fight Tito. Tito didn't show, and they went over the whole personal issues Dana and Tito had.

    Part of the reason Chuck and Tito were training partners was because Dana was the promoter of both of them. Actually the show about that fight was interesting it just had a sucky ending.

    Personally I like Dana. But he definitely has some leadership problems.

    I don't think Dana's a bad guy.like I stated, he's done a lot for mma, but he's lacking polish.

    These are things we already knew about Dana, he gets off on rubbing people up the wrong way. As far as he is concerned any press is good press. He's a fucking wad but a clever guy to go with it and you have to respect that.

    A few things to know about Dana White

    1) He and Chuck Liddel are bummers FACT

    2) They regularly bum eachother...surely another FACT

    3) He swears a lot

    4) He makes a lot of money

    and last but by no means least

    5) Mid way through the TUF season someone in the house does some shit and wants tol eave. Dana will be called in where he will proceed to give said fighter one of his "So you wanna be a fukking fighter?!?"speeches where he will no doubt litter the speech with many expletives and tell the chap how he is the position that so many others envy.

    Don't know about the bumming, but the rest is true.

    I give him a little more leeway because he's actually been punched in the face before and knows some of the life. I really hate sophisticated suit wearing people that act like they know it all. Dana's got a lot of flaws, but he's not one of those.
