Will Dana Whites Ego single handedly tank the UFC???

Yes		8%	(3)
No		50%	(18)
He needs to stop kissing ass		3%	(1)
He needs to repect the fighters that made the UFC what it is		28%	(10)
He shouldn't change a thing		11%	(4)

With the lose of Randy, Tito, Matt Linland, Tim Silvia and whoever else jumps ship to M-1 or DREAM because of lack of respect from Mr. White. Could it be possible that the UFC takes a back seat if M-1 comes through with a Fedor-Couture fight???

This can't be a serious post. First of all, Dana White is the reason that MMA is what it is today. I love his personality. As he said on the first season of TUF, we're here to fight. The fight business isn't about pussyfooting around. Dana is perfect for the UFC, and the losses of Randy and Tim are mere blips on the radar. Do they really need a 45-year-old fighter? Do they really need a guy that lost to the 45-year-old fighter? LOL as my girlfriend says, "Nnnnnnnnnope."

The UFC is, and will always be, the top organization in the world. And there's a reason. But I'll let you figure that out on your own.

Also, Tim is really not leaving the UFC, Tito is like always trying to make more money and he play a game, Lindland is a liar that you can trust and Randy denied his own signature witch make him a person that you can't trust .

As for CC, he admitted that he was not able to fight at the UFC level in a cage and Dana accepted to release him to help him to rebuild his confidence.

He's losing more names than anything. He needs to pay the damn fighters and get on with it. Lindland wasn't a huge loss, Silvia wasn't a huge loss, and Tito , to me, is not even close to being a top contender in this LHW mix up.

UFC will always have the American interest and dollars IMO.
The fighters do, however deserve more. I saw Josh Koshcheck on his TUF contract make 10000 alongside GSP in their fight making 250000.

Once the others like M1, Dream, Elite XC, and HD net start paying their fighters decent purses the UFC will follow suit or the big names they produced with clever promotion strategies will leave.

If M1 and Dream are able to merge they could easily rival the UFC. Just not in North America. Dana no longer has the ground he once stood on in 2007 with his purchase of PrideFC and WEC. The sport could easily be on a downward spiral after the next 2 years.

If Boxing produces the fights it's had lately we could see the hype off MMA go out the window as a campany war rages, much like the wars of the 1980's ith the WBC infighting and eventual split into the WBO and IBC to rival the WBC

This is much more dangerous than it appears.

COME ON DUDE!!

i appreciate everything Dana has done. But now he is ruining he organziation. Matt Lindland, Fedor, Randy, Big Tim, AA, Tito, the list goes on and on and on of top fighters hes jerked aorund and now that the sport is gaining momentum and people like amrk cuban are getting involved. Dana is gonna slowly watch his organization crumble. I beleive in 10 years Mark Cuban will be the king of mma promotion. He has deep pockets to pay fighters what they deserve and he has the resources to make the big shows happen. and hes one of the best businessmen in the world and people love him. sorry dana stop trying to make yourself a star and give the fighters respect. and by fighters i dont mean jsut chuck. Maybe the fertitas will get smart and let him go and work with cuban or at least start doing cross promotions for the love of god. Dana White = Don King + Vince McMahon.

i believe dana is a good business man and he will react appropriately if he feels he his losing business. he probably doesn't see the other organizations as a threat yet, not that i agree with it, but when he does i am sure he will tweek the way he handles business.

now, i want to put an end to the whole M-1 thing. M-1 only was Red Devil Fighters. the only good fighter they exclusively have is Fedor, and with him all they do is put him on another card and add their name to it. the organization the UFC has to look out for is definitely not M-1, not even close. it has to watch out for the upcoming Dream organization and World Victory Road organization. those two right now have the best competition for the UFC. M-1 isn't a problem, it is the two i mentioned that dana should be wary of.

UFC is going to be on top a long time, if you ask someone did you see Dream,M-1,wec this weekend most fans will say no but i saw the UFC, UFC is the in thing, MMA is second to none hardcore fans
