I love when Dana says that Kimbo was street fighting 3 months ago and that he is bad for the sport. Who is that new guy UFC just got? Only has 2 MMA fights just like Kimbo. Paid way more than any other fighter with a 2-0 record. The hypocracy of DW is amazing. Brock Lesnar is the same as Kimbo. A very marketable guy with questionable fighting credentials.

Dana is just mad that he couldn't get a deal done with CBS and Gary Shaw could.

The difference is that Brock was given a real test and has real credentials with wrestling. Kimbo is a thug who is fed cans to beaf up his record.

By the way Brock lost.

You should really consider lightening up on the Dana White and UFC hating and go back to Sherdog where you would be considered a God.

I love UFC, I have ordered every ppv for last 3 years. I didn't get that one with no title fight.

Everyone hating on Kimbo is clearly got a bit of racism going. Why hate on a guy for getting paid? If you dislike Kimbo so much don't post in threads about him, you are only adding to the hype.

Some day Dana's behaviour will be bad for UFC and not good. He has done a lot of good but his ego is out of control.

And why is that? You really think nobody can find another reason to dislike someone? That's a ridiculous statement.

I actually happen to like Kimbo. I think he found the right trainer, is taking everything seriously, and is fairly humble considering the criticisms. The only think I haven't cared for from him thus far is him saying "tapping is for bitches"...that will come back to bite him in the ass one day. What I don't care for is how Gary Shaw promotes his fights. There is no way in hell that he should be the main event over a title fight...not ever. You criticize the UFC for promoting Lesnar in a similar fashion, but it was actually quite different...(1) he fought someone who would possess a challenge for him and (2) a title fight was the main event, regardless of Lesnar's drawing power.

You should really take your own advice here. You keep questioning hate for Kimbo, yet you take a shot at Dana at every opportunity.
