Josh Gross got owned with this one. It's not Dana's fault the fighters choose to do steroids.



Not really. Sarcasm/subdued jabs + valid points > random insults + run-around answers.


Dana didn't really address anything brought up, he basically just spent all his time trying to burn Gross with something "super witty".


In the one/two areas he DID make a half-assed attempt at a rebuttal, he basically denies it is his responsibility and says its impossible to fix(because humans are imperfect and etc)


Yeah Dana thats true and everything...but as a promoter/individual in a seat of power, you are in a position where upon seeing the current system doesn't (really) work ....you COULD implement certain things that may, in fact, improve the condition.

Obviously Dana isn't personally/solely responsible for the problem and/or the users....and for Gross to imply that is a little much, but he is in a position of influence, and that DOES mean he is partially responsible for the problems/users in the ufc.

But, instead of thinking about what Gross said seriously, it'd probably be better if Dana just found 4 or 5 ways to call Sherwood fat, and Gross a nerd.

Whats that you say? Dana already did that? /shock

Surely the steroid problem is solved!



Best post I've seen in long time. The "Not really. Sarcasm/subdued jabs + valid points > random insults + run-around answers." line really sums it up. I can't believe people actually fall for this kind of ways to respond. Dana's just childish and is only attacking and insulting on a personal level to avoid answering the real topics.
The sad part about it is that 95% of everyone who reads Danas letter backs him up for it. It's like we're back in kindergarden and the meanest kid is always right.

This is not from Dana White. There are too many blatant factual errors.
