Gimme break already Amat, did you have to settle for dirt weed today

Dana White has a big mouth no doubt, but he owns a whole sport and you cant even argue with his success. What do you care if he disparages boxing? Its his only competition ad quite a few fighters have taken a shot at MMA.

None of its relevant and has no bearing on boxing. I will be watching Mayweather/ Marquez.
You're either defending lies or ignorance. When Dana White talks a bunch of tattooed up guys in Affliction shirts listen (ask Lyle), the internet media hasn't learned to ignore him yet. I don't care what you say it's one thing for a fighter to be polarizing, making a guy in charge of the whole ship polarizing is another thing. He's MMA's Don King or at least he is trying to be.

You mean to tell me this clown who talks as if he knows EVERYTHING about boxing, he's the end all and he's telling people he doesn't know who Marquez is, or that an HBO PPV is one fight?

WTF. Yeah plenty of fighters slack off MMA, Arum did to and he got called out for it as an idiot. I just don't get what redeemable qualities this guy has, and I'm an MMA fan. I just don't get how Dana White consistently acting like an asshole is written off as a shrewd business tactic by his followers.

And he doesn't own the whole sport don't be foolish. He has done a nice job with it and really the best thing he has done is getting MMA sanctioned, moving it forward as a sport. But at this rate he is moving it backwards with all this reckless talk.
Well I am tattooed up and dont own an affliction, tapout, silverstar etc shirts.. I trained MMA for years and started in the early 90's before you see what the UFC is today.

At the moment UFC is the powerhouse so my metaphor is pretty damn close. Name me another organization that come close in MMA? Pride was the only and it was my favorite. You can check my posts from years ago and see that I always had loyalty to the Pride organization because IMO the had the best fighters in the world hands down.... GUESS WHO BOUGHT PRIDE The UFC, so its pretty apparent who's in the driver seat of the MMA world.

Also I can care less what White says, he obviously dosent know a lick about boxers if he dosent know about JMM. Problem is JMM is so low key that he dosent have the pagentry of a Mayweather, Delahoya, Pac etc.

I agree its a total slap in the face to Marquez who has a chance of being mexico's best when he hangs them up. I dont defend White I take him for what he's worth and thats an attention whore who happens to have the media at his disposal and thats never a good combo... You are somehow making me out to be a White apologist because of how some including me slagged off Fedor for going to an extremely less competitive organization because UFC wouldn't share their business with his promotional company.

You also said that Fedor didn't sign because of Disparaging remarks White made at one time about him, then somehow drew an illustration about the Klitschko's and Don King. 2 seperate things, Boxers can make big fights and continue their legacies regardless of promoter. Granted some fights are harder to make do to promoters not getting along but they still get made eventually.. Fedor was given the richest contract through the UFC was going to be able to advertise his company on the banner behind him during pre fight announcements as well as on his trunks and fight for the most prestigious organization with the stiffest competition and you said he didnt because Dana White slagged him a little... Like I said before, GIMME A BREAK!!! Fedor isint fighting for his legacy right now
