"This guy went on Howard Stern and said he was getting $200,000 a fight,” White said. “That was such a lie. Tito made $5.8 million in 2006. He only fought once in 2007. He made $710,000 for that fight (with Rashad Evans) and that was the third match from the top (on the card). He goes around saying we made $231 million last year. He’s a moron. This guy talks about what a businessman he is, and he was on ‘The Apprentice’ and he doesn’t know the difference between revenue and profit."

“There’s not going to be any bidding war,” White said. “Gary Shaw (promoter at Elite XC) should offer him $30 a fight, because we’re not going to match it.”


So I think it's safe to say there will be no reconciliation

Haha I love this! I'm actually on Dana's side! In my eyes that man can do no wrong!

EDIT: If he messes up the Arlovski situation though I will break into his house and sh*t in his underwear draw!

i wanted machida to win because hes the better fighter, but now i see myself rooting for tito. his whole life is basically riding on this fight.

i want to see tito win the fight, then not have an interview with joe rogan, run out of the stands and KO's dana white and runs away.


war tito.
(ew, i cant believe i said that!)

I don't think the Dana and Tito debacle will ever end, this has been happening for almost 10 Years, all because Dana couldn't manage Tito no more. O could agree with Tito, but I'm on Dana's side. 6 Million Dollars in 2006 is a lot of Money for 30 Minutes of work.

Wow, Dana couldnt of destroyed tito's argument any better. Im kinda glad its coming to an end. Tito never fights and doesnt feel like a top contender. He would do better going down a notch to Elite XC

The thing I'm most glad about is we don't see any Tito nut huggers running their mouths anymore. It seems even those guys have realized he's washed up at this point.

I still think Tito could arguably be a top 20 LHW, but his time in the UFC is done and I couldn't be happier about it. It would be a great twist in the storyline of the UFC if he just absolutely WORKED Machida, though. haha
