I dunno if it's online or not but the newest issue of Rolling Stone has a great article about Dana White in it.. I know alot of people hate the guy but personally, I am a fan of his..

I'll see it the article is online, if not, I'll scan it for you guys..

Rob 06-05-2008 01:24 PM

I'd love to read it.

I like Dana. I just think he has let personal issues get in the way of business recently. And he has embarrassed himself as the big chief of the UFC with the way he treated his employees.

Reavant 06-05-2008 01:54 PM

Im sure hes a nice enough guy but he has def let power and success go to his head to the point to which he thinks hes the baddest man in the ufc. Its almost ammusing.

Rob 06-05-2008 02:09 PM

Yeah he defo has the Vince McMahon complex now where he is making himself a TV personality.

Reavant 06-05-2008 02:17 PM

On another note this video is awsome

Rampage on Kimmel was awesome by the way. Rampage needs his own sitcom.

Reavant 06-05-2008 04:09 PM

HAHA I saw that too. I really hope he gets that role on the new A Team

Innovator 06-05-2008 06:33 PM

I demand a show with Rampage and Bas

Rob 06-06-2008 08:16 AM

UFC is meant to be making some huge announcement next Thursday that will rock the world of MMA.

I'm betting it's a ABC deal.

Rob 06-07-2008 09:14 AM

It's 100% not a TV deal so I was wrong. Probably announcing a show in NYC.

Predictions for tonight.

Davis, Bisping, Vera, Hughes and Nate The Great all to win. Hopefully I'm seriously wrong with Hughes though.

RP 06-07-2008 05:57 PM

Dan Miragliotta strikes again

Jura 06-07-2008 06:34 PM

Tom Gugliotta

Rob 06-08-2008 07:02 AM

I popped sooooooooo loud when Alves fucking humbled this motherfucker. I'll meeting someone from the UFC for lunch in like an hour so I might be able to weasel some info from him.

Reavant 06-08-2008 01:16 PM

Im hearing silva at 205, tv deal with fox, mayweather going to ufc, 145 class coming to the ufc (which is what I think the announcement is) and liddel headlining the atlanta card.

RP 06-08-2008 01:44 PM

LOL Mayweather is not going to UFC. I dont believe it at all.

Rob 06-08-2008 02:41 PM

The announcement is FUCKING HUGE! I just heard about it and I'm sworn to silence.

It's already been mentioned here though and not by me. That's all I can say.

McLegend 06-08-2008 05:19 PM

A sitcom with Rampage and Bas debuting on Spike Tv in the fall?

RP 06-08-2008 05:29 PM

The universe would crumble around the awesomeness of that show.

Reavant 06-08-2008 06:10 PM

its totally Rampage being on the A-team

Reavant 06-08-2008 06:17 PM

I actually think that the news is going to really piss me off.

Destor 06-08-2008 06:20 PM

So when is the announcement again? Thursady?

Innovator 06-08-2008 06:26 PM

can i get a little pm action Rob

James Steele 06-08-2008 06:56 PM

Floyd is going to get his ass whooped if you are implying what I think you are implying.

Crimson 06-08-2008 07:48 PM

Out of all the possibilites of the rumors the FOX tv deal would be the hugest impact.

I think Dana is gonna come out and announce a live draft for 2 UFC brand shows on FOX and spike. :|

Rob 06-08-2008 07:51 PM

I asked Dana myself on Saturday if it was a TV deal and said no. And he also told reporters after it wasn't.

Reavant 06-08-2008 09:05 PM

GUYS! Rob PMed me and said it was going to be Quinton vs MrT for the LHW belt and spot on the A Team in october

Danny Electric 06-08-2008 09:05 PM

How the hell did you get to speak to Dana White.

Innovator 06-08-2008 09:08 PM

BASPAGE, coming this fall on FOX

The skill of being able to blag my way into tickets and passes I shouldn't be having.

Bollocks I'm just saying it.

I was sitting with a guy from UFC on Sunday when got a txt from a certain wrestling/MMA writer saying it's Floyd Mayweather 100%.

And now the same guy is acting like he doesn't know in public and putting out stuff saying UFC are denying it. It was meant to be kept secret and he did a shitty job of doing it.

But yeah, it's Mayweather. And if it isn't now, I'm blaming that fucker because he told us.

The CyNick 06-09-2008 05:22 PM

I would be shocked if we ever see Mayweather in the Octagon in a fight.

I've read all kinds of stuff about this rumour. What I could see is a deal where he has something to do with UFC is terms of promotion, but I just cant see him fighting. Just cant see it.

Rob 06-09-2008 05:42 PM

He has been training MMA on the sly since Wrestlemania.

Reavant 06-09-2008 06:28 PM

Im soo pissed of if this is the damn announcement

Crimson 06-09-2008 09:07 PM

What weight class?? the superduper featherweight? The new 115lb division?

redoneja 06-10-2008 03:56 PM

I've got an opportunity to become a certified MMA referee in the state of Virginia at the end of the month. Pretty excited. :cool:
