What I really love about this video is that it goes to show how we need more humble people in the world, just like Joe Lozito and Dana White. Joe gives all credit in the world to the true heroes of modern day and Dana White is humble enough to set up a meeting with the guy and rewarding him with a free fight and dinner with Dana. Dana could of simply saw the video and said 'cool' the guy is an MMA fan, forgot about it, and go back to making millions of bucks in his mansion, yet he didn't.
Dana is a spotlight whore that makes many people hate the UFC and MMA. He should promote the events and the fighters and that is it but he makes himself the center of attention.
Stuff like this makes me believe that Dana's not quite the asshole he's sometimes made out to be.
Whether he's meeting this brave man or paying for a little girl's life-saving operation in Thailand just because he heard about her on Twitter, Dana shows that he has a good heart. It may not be on display all the time, but its there.
GUYS! A man gets randomly attacked by a knife wielding serial killer on a subway. The victim manages to save his own life by using mma. Dana, just like everyone else, is amazed by his story and wants to do something nice for the guy. Why is this now being used as a platform to attack Dana White?
@QBCHIEFS19 Beacuse some people are jaded pricks. Dana never said anything like, "thanks to the UFC this guys is alive." He stated that Lozito accredited is survival instinct to watching fights and then hailed him as a genuine hero, which he is.
Last time they tried to prove their claim in pride, it didn't turn out so well for Dana. UFC is never going to own every fighter they don't have the funds. It sucks for the fans that want to see there favorite fighters fighting top ranked competition but half are in other leagues. SF has just as much an impressive amount of heavyweights as the UFC, the only difference really is the brand. I hope they keep having impressive shows, to keep UFC in check so maybe one day a co-promo will happen.
Dana seems like a cool guy in person, I just wish he would put on some co-promotions with other companies to prove who has the best talent. UFC always claims it but is much too scared to back up their own hype. He could have been a tiny bit more respectful in the things he said about Fedor. He also at times comes off as a broken record re-looping the same crap over and over again. I do think he is an entertaining personality, this is just part of why hes not well received by everyone.
@Immortalsyn83 You've gotta look at co-promotion not just from an entertainment standpoint, but also a business standpoint. The UFC dominates the sport of MMA. All other promotions worldwide combined don't generate what the UFC does. how does the UFC as a BUSINESS benefit from co-promoting with a company like Strikeforce? The answer is they don't.
