I like Dana White as a businessman and a person but the fact of the matter is until Fedor loses or retires, noone but him can be called the P4P King. It doesn't matter that the heavyweight division has been lackluster recently, Fedor has beaten all time greats and former UFC champions, end of discussion is right.
I agree wit you to a certain point, but I could only give Fedor so much props for so long also...there comes a time when I'm gonna be like, "dude I give up man, this guy is fighting half ass opponets he shouldn't be p4p on the ranks. It's like if Anderson Silva left UFC and started beating everyone in King of the Cage, you gotta be like really I ain't having that. jus my 2 cents!
hahahaha lesner beating fedor hands down...wtf? this guy is an idiot, how can he put his money on brock lesner, whos dick is he sucking. Dana didnt say anything cause he knows he would regret it later on..hahahah fedor"yes" the best p4p
Dana is scared of what Fedor has done to his so called best fighters from UFC. And Dana is an idiot for not understanding that Fedor doesn't fight too often in the ring because hes usually competing in sambo tournaments, what a lying jackass.
Of course I wish Fedor fought more especially since he is in his mid 30's. But that is not in his control. His management is to blame for that. And before you say, "he should just leave his management" you have to realize that he is contractually obligated with his management (M1) for I think two more fights. He has already hinted that he is unhappy with them but until then he has no control.
@fathead8489 its a fair point but its hurting his legacy and thats NOT debatable,.,anyone can get out of a contract if its destroying there career,.,dana white has a point when he says the HW division is the weakest and the UFC guys fight at least 2x a year and are fighting top guys,,fedor cannot say the same,.,
Actually no you CAN'T get out of a contract. That is the whole point of a contract. Look at Randy, he tried every thing and couldn't do it. And Fedor HAS fought at least twice a year in every year except 2008. And he beat two top 5 HW and one top ten. No one else has done that in the last two years. So he still has the most impressive resume not just over all but recently as well.
"i agree Fedor COULD be the top guy" Ok, you know nothing about combat sports or rankings. Get lost.
AA was unanimously the number two ranked HW in the world at the time. Tim was number 4. Rogers was between 6-10 depending on which site you are going by. YES those are names to be proud of. That's how combat sports works. Who did you beat, and what was their stance AT THE TIME. You can't go by what their rank will be two years from now because you don't know it. If in two years Anderson fell off the map that wouldn't making beating him now any less significant.
@fathead8489 part 2...so although i agree Fedor COULD be the top guy,.,hes NOT bc of that,.,its sad to think in 5,10,15 yrs hes gonna look back and say "wow what did i do staying in that contract, it fucked up my career" i do think hes smarter than that and personally dont get it,.,how long can a fighter be in contract lol hes had the same management for years, to my knowledge...
@fathead8489 LOL you loser if you meant Slyvia and Arlovski go hang yourself (only being disrespectful cuz you had to take it there) fedor is consider the BEST in your mind and fought Brett Rodgers last? yea tons of sense right there,.,and YES you can get out of contracts ask any lawyer moron,,if you'd like ill point out examples you fuckn hick hahaha have fun sitting home all day wishing you could fight lol
hahaha, the nuthugger host picked Brock to beat Fedor, and White wouldn't even take the bait and pick Lesnar. I honestly think Lesnar's sheer size and athleticism combined with his wrestling skills would give Fedor a problem, but just goes to show you how much Dana doesn't even believe what he says about Fedor.
He won't do a cross promotion event because he has too much to lose if a ufc guy gets his ass whooped. lets say fedor stomps lesnar, the ufc will lose credabilty/money/dominance in mma as a result. now lets say if fedor stomps lesnar as a ufc fighter than he can keep
saying that the ufc has the best fighters instead of saying we have some of the best but sometimes get out ass whooped. hope that helped.
I think its a case of when PRIDE was the big show he DID send Liddell over there who was his big star at the time. So, he has done it but yes now the UFC is the big dog on the MMA block so there is no reason for him to send Brock to Affliction. I agree that it is up to Fedor if he wants to fight in the UFC but I disagree that it is "retarded" to call Fedor the greatest because he has beaten the best in the game IN THEIR PRIME no less. Dana knows this and is putting on a front.
WOoooo0ow.... espn know's jack shit about mma and should stick to football and basketball.. I get so sick of hearing and reading there opinion's about shit they must get paid to come up with. first off that guy that sounded like he's been smoking 2 packs of ciggs a day since the 70's little comment "fedor has'nt beaten the body of people these guy's have beaten "2:06" What people? Bj penn is helllllla over rated his record is rubish! and gsp himself think's fedor is the best p4p fighter LoL
You expect it with the crappy Brock videos on YouTube but an ESPN commentator saying that a fighter with an MMA record of 3-1 would beat another with a record of 29-1 and defeated 5 UFC champions is beyond stupid. Is Dana giving away tickets, is this commentator really that dumb or is he afraid to piss off Dana?
Problem with short term memory loss Dana? You were beyond intrusive about Penn's training. Why else would you grill his trainer over rumors and suspicion and tell Bj directly to "get his ass in the gym."
As Fedor goes, does it matter how often he fights if he's beaten the best in his division and never lost? Your arguments are the only thing retarded about Fedor debates, Dana. If you think Fedor would be only a slight favorite over brock then you might want to cat scan for brain tumors.
He is panic with Affliction. he is panic on UFC popularity shifting away. and he is on the edge that he got everyone from Pride FC but let Fedor lose to the jungo. ha...
FIRST y are all u ppl on youtube in love with fedor 2ND arguing on the internet is like masturbating to a mirror and then recording it to masturbate to it later
the MIDDLEWEIGHT division is by far the weakest, you got Anderson, Hendo, Franklin and a rising Mousasi and a over hyped Bisping, and thats it! At HW you got AA, Sylvia, Mir, Nogeira,Lesnar,Barnett, Overeem,Couture, Fedor and a bunch of rising stars like GG, Carvin, Cain etc. Dana....AGAIN
Lindland just got owned by Belfort, who isnt top ten, Cung Le's only big win is against an old Frank, Thales Leites hasnt got big name wins, neither has Nate. Maia hasnt beaten a single top ten guy, but is a rising star. Lawler got the boot from the ufc, cause he lost his fights. How can you compare the skillset/competition to the guys I mentioned at HW? Check their records...
Good video. Dana is right, the HW division is the weakest so its unfair to say Fedor is the "pound for pound" best. I take exception to him saying that Penn, GSP, and Silva have "fought nothing but the best for the past nine years". Silva lost to Luis Azeredo, Daiju Takase, Ryo Chonan, and dq'd against Yushin Okami. GSP lost to Matt Serra/Hughes. BJ to Machida, GSP, and Pulver. All UFC fighters are good but there are some great fighters outside the organization.
Man these espn guys really suck up to Dana white! It makes me sick!!
They don't jack shit, and don't even recognized Fedor! What a bunch
