Dana White on Anderson Silva faking injuries and if he'll cut Mayhem Miller

[dturner05]

"Our fighters don't fame injuries, we have our guys check them out." He is Your best champion and more than arguably the best fighter you have based on merit, and Dana you can't tell me exactly what his injury is after "your guys" checked him out...please.

[DianaVita0]

rich bastard..

[prysion]

Dana won't cut Mayhem yet I dont thinkkk. His persona alone outweighs his fighting ability and will sell tickets for least 1 more fight. If he looks like complete garbage again then I say let him go.

[usjean100]

Anderson won and thats it.

[nibbles1637]

Rather than discredit Miller, I would give much more credit to Bisping for an overwhelmingly dominating performance. I'm not even a fan but it's time to accept that he's arrived into top contention status.  As for Miller, I think fans are forgetting about past fighters who've entered the octagon with even less striking prowess.

[ShottyBlast11]

Sonnen wuz on steroids n still couldn't beat silva he got choked out n dat fight wit Bisping he looked terrible trying 2 knock him out n swinging 4 da fences lyke it wuz da last rd stick 2 da ground game it suits him until he becomes a better striker

[jrcova6160]

Chael hendo hey guess what you guys lost his been champ for six years he needs a vacation

[suicidalsubmissions]

Dana, you can't boot a fighter because of 1 performance

[Gusto821]

Anderson silva is not danas cash cow in brazil yes but look at most of his ppvbuy rates

[BigChatter62]

what did mayham miller do

[gerald218]

@BigChatter62 during the miller bisping fight miller came out and was winning, doing rlly well. but i think it was round 2... he just was soooo exhausted. exhausted to the point where he wound up turtling up and gettn hit upon i beleive after he went for a takedown? idk it was very bad. i luv miller but holy shit...maybe gaining the weight fucked him up idk. he looks way bigger than he used to be

[nibbles1637]

@gerald218 it may have been that but there's also the massive body blows that Bisping was landing throughout the fight. Body blows take the cardio right out of you.

[gerald218]

@nibbles1637 oh for sure. i watchd that fight like what...is going on. miller was so exhausted i could not beleive it.

[nibbles1637]

@gerald218, well it's disappointing to know that he's not relevant for title contention but I think Mayhem can still be competitive. Seeing him fight Fukuda, Cantwell, Stann or Maia would make for an interesting undercard or co-main. Or if Shields decides to move back up to MW, they can have a rematch since the last fight was so controversial.

[sts989]

LOL Dana doesn't know the injury of his best cash cow? Really? Dana is a liar and a thief, Pay the fighters their deserved purse Dana. No one cares if you have to sleep in a car and eat tuna from a can you leech.

[mmadigest]

Thanks for watching, click "subscribe" if you have a second.

[99XM]

SOME TRUE

ANDERSON GOT INJURIED IN THE FIGHT WITH SONNEN.

HIS BROKEN RIB WAS A LIE.

DURING THE FIGHT HE BEGGED TO SONNEN NOT TO HIM, AND BEGED FOR MERCY.

THIS ANDERSON SILVA MUST GO OUT OF MMA, IS NOT A SPORT GUY HES A FRAUD.

[99XM]

@99XM ANDERSON KEEP LYINF TO PEOPLE, BUT ONE DAY EVERYBODY WILL SEE THAT AND HE WILL DIE RIGHT THERE.

[MrGetatmehaters]

@99XM Anderson is mma, fuckin hater....sonnen's a fraud and you know it, could'nt even finishe the spider, and on the other hand spider took the beating, came back and choke him out less then a minute and half or so LOL

[maxpower789z]

If there is anyones expert opinion on standup that I trust, it's Dana "Boxercise" White's!

[drohoe1]

Mayhem deserves 1 more chance.

[tehf00n]

"shoulder. hes got something wrong with the shoulder". Ummm you dont know what injury your biggest pull of the moment is? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[supermanQ3]

@tehf00n Or he knows its his shoulder like he said. Im sure he might be thinking, It could be his tendants, ligaments, muscle, rotator cuff, shoulder cap, shoulder link, or seperated shoulder that also could have caused several of those problems. Maybe he doesn't know exactly what the problem is with his SHOULDER? Like he said can't fake an injury.

[ediot6969]

I don't care why he lost he lost. That's that. Same as Chael I don't care what he in the silva fight he lost. Do I think mayhem should be cut no. Give him one more chance out.

[u8pen1s2day]

I'm disagreeing more and more with Dana every time he speaks. I don't know which fight he watched, but round 1, Mayhem had better striking than Bisping. Dana couldn't strike that well. The reason Mayhem lost was because he gassed out. Ring rust and maybe some adrenaline had something to do with it. But calling his striking terrible is a pretty crappy assumption.

[crrymra]

I agee not to cut Mayhem. He's a interesting fighter and I think he gassed early because of lack of training

[supertikraw]

yeah mayhem got worked he was tired after 3 mins passed and his strikeing was very terrible almost like he had no striking at all more like civilian stand up

[thnk4urself]

Dana's ignoring the fact that Silva may have had an injury, but is lying about the fact that he hasn't recovered. he's been doing this for years, it just takes fans dying to see a fight to finally put the spotlight on him. Silva's fuckin doctor came out and said he's 100% and already training, Silva was caught on video training with Nog, and another vid with Machida. then this week he comes out and says he never heeled. if you know the facts and think he's not ducking than you're plain retarded

[supermanQ3]

@thnk4urself Or people should quit playing doctor. Personally I have battled shoulder injuries in mma for years. You're shoulder can slightly seperate causing problems for a week or several. Heal, and you train as he has, then RESEPERATE, or REAGGRAVATE the tendants or ligaments. You're an idiot, he's not in a video game, it's not like when the bar says full health that he can't hurt himself again! Yea, it's more likely the greatest fighter of all time doesn't wanna make a quick million.

[thnk4urself]

@supermanQ3 when a qualified medical physician comes out and says one thing then he says that basically she was lying, I don't buy it. What would she have to gain by lying? I'm sure it's great for her practice to have him as a patient so there's no logic behind it, there is logic behind why Anderson would lie. He's going to retire soon, how is it hard to believe he doesn't want a loss on the way out?

[MasterChicken]

Dan Hardy Pat Barry etc etc have all been given MORE than enough opportunities because they are likeable and have a strong fanbase. I don't see why this is any different.

[felipede0107]

he has a fake injury that why he tould the doctor to keep it to himself but then he had to tell dana so he starts to say what ever chael dick tells him to what a bitch silva is the best and mahem will stay dana just says alot but he wants money

[CzarTyush]

Don't cut Miller. He couldn't handle a top-10 opponent in his first UFC fight in the MW division. I say give him a Top 20 opponent and see how he does. If he can't win that one, then he doesn't belong.

[TheSirhclee]

When you go to a job, it is your job to show up ready for that job. Jason miller didnt show up very well for his job that day. Id give him one more shot.

[VelvetSpruce]

Maybe I need to re-watch Mayhem's fight with Bisping, I don't recall seeing his stand up being absolutely horrible like Dana mentioned.

[mmadigest]

@VelvetSpruce If you look at the first round, you can make a case that Mayhem won the standup in that round or it was even, because Bising started winning the striking in the last couple minutes. In the second round onwards it wasn't good, but what made it look worse was the fact that he had nothing left. I was more dissapointed he gassed than the striking, but it happens, next time it won't.

[iNFernoSoulja]

@mmadigest so thing is if you're beating the guy for 3 minutes but then last 2 minutes of the round he beats you everyone sees the guy who was beating the other guy for 2 minutes won that was same here mayhem totally beat bisping on the ground he took him down he also beat him standing up second round guy was so tired couldn't move you can't blame him for having a horrible stand up in second round plus they both had horrible weight cuts but only miller showed it plus bisping is no bad striker

[XMetalChefX]

@VelvetSpruce Mayhjem was an absolute disappointment in that fight. He was out of shape, and not mayhem.

[gr187]

@VelvetSpruce He was really gassed.....which is not like Mayhem

[IMnotSAS]

@VelvetSpruce

i did 

[samcotton]

chuck him in strikeforce, give him a chance to shine against lesser opponents.

[iamalex4life]

Impossible to fake an injury? Break your own leg derp

[0ptikz]

@iamalex4life

That'll be a real injury then, derp

[iamalex4life]

@0ptikz but a fake one that what I was aiming for.

[powerhousephg]

did this interview seriously have to be broken up into a bunch of 2 minute clips? seo made the internet so fkn annoying these past few years...

[897newbs]

hahahah to all you precious mayhem fans who thought he will kick bispings ass don't make me laugh he should be cut, pathetic stand up didn't do nothing on the ground, don't see him going anywhere in the ufc, back to strikeforce.

[Blamepandora85]

Don't cut miller. Win or lose he's a huge draw and a great personality.

[jhonblaze421]

I think mayhem might have a.d.d maybe burned his energy before the fight? Just saying

[Lifter85]

@jhonblaze421 ...no...Bisping just worked him and made him look stupid...the end.

[140662amarildo]

Fuck you Dana dont think your God, with i cut this i cut you out that i dont like this, i dont like the way he act. Please Dana shut the fuck up!.

[mmadigest]

Nice to see Mayhem has such passionate fans. He'll be back.

[khanart]

Don't cut Mahem Dana, yes his performance was bad. But give him another shot. He's good for UFC.

[mmadigest]

@khanart His standup didn't look good, but he was kinda beating Bisping in the standup in round 1.

But in round 2 and 3 he was done, no energy whatsoever left, especially in round 3.

[khanart]

@mmadigest I honestly was very dissappointed with Mahem's performance, it was hard to watch. I watched the season of TUF and had a chance to see a different side to him. You don't know how bad I wanted him to beat Bisping...don't like that guy. Mahem is a good dude.. if he continues to lose then I don't blame Dana for wanting to cut him but not after this fight.

[mmadigest]

@khanart I know what you're saying. They should give him another shot, chance for redemption.

[MultiKarolys]

@khanart fuck you dude!!

[khanart]

@MultiKarolys Fuck yourself homie

[thnk4urself]

@khanart I had the same feeling, dissapointment. All season long mayhem was the bigger man, and he backed it up in the first round big time, but he totally gassed and it sucks. I still think Mayhem is the better fighter, when fought shields he never gassed in 5 rounds, he has it in him to never gas again but I'm hoping dana gets over this and realizes that. I know he gets mad when fighters do shit like that or not making weight but mayhem isn't a newbie. he shouldn't be cut for 1 bad performance

[Clymax01]

@khanart If Bisping beats Miller, Miller vs Maia

[javierunirodriguez]

Absolutely right dana

[ghillesniper666]

he doesnt have horrible stand up he has 6 respectable ko victories to his belt and his win/loss ratio is 3.00 in other words for every 4 fights he in he will win at least 3 of them i can admit he doesnt have great standup but give me a fucking break there many other people who should be cut before miller and in recent news mayhem just went to holland to learn how to kick box better hes obviously trying hes a great fighter with a great personality ill always watch ufc but ill lose respec for dana

[Mikey915Nutz]

dana white is a retard, mayhem had not faught for a really long time and he's retarded!!!!!!!!!

[Kingofdaheavyweights]

The truth hurts. Hope Mayhem gets another shot. Instead of cutting his career you should make him fight at his appropriate weigh classes 185 and 205. He is no longer that 171er nor can he cut to 185 easily. Guys a big boy. Let him fight, he'll prove everyone wrong we all know what happened that night if you ever trained you know cutting weight was a factor in that finale. Bisping couldn't even raise his fucking hand. They both lookd like shit. Love how he gave him a 500k Check for that.

[kpatbyr]

As far as the most one sided fight he's ever seen comment goes, that is undeserved and grossly inacurate. It was not even the most one sided fight of the night, let alone in UFC history. The guidinot bedford fight was way more one sided and passed without comment. Dana is just stirring the pot. If he honestly believes it was the most one sided fight he's ever seen, he is delusional.

[kenseisato1989]

@kpatbyr

very well said kpatbyr

[kpatbyr]

Dana White knows exactly what he's doing when he threatens to cut mayhem. It's hype. He's being deliberately vague about it in order to generate interest from Mayhem fans who may not be MMA or UFC fans. No way is he going to cut somone with a profile as high as Mayhems'. He'd be an idiot if he did. Dana seems like a prick, but not an idiot. Talking about most other fighters, Dana is honest and forthright and rarely gives vague answers. This whole 'i don't know we'll see' routine is bullshit

[Skyrodude]

Cut shields? Fuck off people.

Shields got the closest to GSP.

[TheDrunkwraith]

@Skyrodude I really don't see how you can cut the only guy to win a round against St. Pierre since like 2007. I know atleast one judge gave him 2 rounds. Everybody is just hating cuz jake ellenburger went gorilla on him, but I don't think that fight should have been stopped simply because of the fact that it's jake shields Nick Diaz looked way worse after the second knock down from Daley and look what happened.

[Lrdvltr]

If he cuts Miller, cut Shields while you're at it.

[jimmy92635]

jason miller's stand up was a joke, some of the worest stand up i've seen in my life. but his ground game amazing

[tman229]

Most MMA fighters has horrible stand up if we are talking about striker's in general. Dunno why he's just attacking Miller.

[one4455]

Brock  has good stand up LOL

[UFCBrockLesnar1]

Is it just me or does Dana's ear look like it's surgically put on, either that or he's getting so fucking fat that it's starting form over his ears.

[Stigmableedingblack]

DAMAGE CONTROL MUCH?

Dana is a pathological liar, nobody believes a single word he says.

UFC is padding andersons record, he's the most protected champ of all time.

[secret212000]

@Stigmableedingblack

Lol ridiculous

[gavidia1991]

@Stigmableedingblack dude don't get mad because u and every other silva hater got proved wrong. what...u actually though that the ufc is a company that doesn't check up on fighters? just cause a fighter says i am sick, doesn't mean the ufc is going to take his word for it. how does the ufc protect silva? please explain?

[CamjonesJnr]

I agree 100% with dana, how can someone have stand up so shit and train so hard for so long?...if your ability is looping overhand rights that are most of the time not even measured and just loop a mile over someones head, wtf do u actualy do when u hit pads? it just shows the difference between ppl that can hit pads and ppl that fight

[etuar87]

@CamjonesJnr

hitting pads and beeing in a real fight is a big difference, especially after mayhem´s long absence

[CamjonesJnr]

@etuar87 yeah thats wat i ment, my time spent typing messages is generally quick so i often mistype shit or dont get my message across, wat i mean is mayhem prolly looks good on the pads but wen he fights he just derps out, i kno hitting pads and fighting is a big difference, thats why there are so many fighters in mma that look good hitting pads but cant fight for shit

[gavidia1991]

Thank u...finally all the fake injury talk comes to a conclusion. Now I wonder what all the silva haters will do?

[HelloBro111]

@gavidia1991 They will continue to believe he is ducking. They don't stop hating, which is why they are called haters. Anderson can beat Sonnen as many times as Jeremy Horn did and haters will continue to hate.

[UFCBrockLesnar1]

@gavidia1991 Not to mention all of the people hating on GSP saying that he's faking his injury, I don't know how you can "fake" and ACL injury. I guess they think UFC is like their school, where you can just say your sick and that's the end of it and nobody ask's questions. LOL people are so fucking stupid nowadays.

[leko6969]

and mayhem doesnt have a bad stand up, obviously he is a grappler, and he gassed

[leko6969]

hendo is being a prick, andy beats him everyday

[jeffrokc]

First thing is first, I am a Mayhem Monkey, but I was thinking the same thing during this fight. Jason needs to make some changes in the way he trains.

[Steadno]

yet wandi, griffin and the american lamo can never ever ever ever be cut..bs

[Humanoids]

@Steadno nigga, you just went full retard.

[Jali005]

Matt Riddle?

[nixdcc]

fake injuries??

[MrScottishcuntface1]

worst stand up.. anyone seen brocks or sheids .

[MrTrauMMA]

@MrScottishcuntface1 brock actually hits people WITH straight punches...mayhem swung wildly. brocks standup>mayhems

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@MrTrauMMA id rather have mayhems stand up than brocks least he can take a punch :D

[MrTrauMMA]

@MrScottishcuntface1 idk about that lol. brock can take a punch but his reaction sucks so bad but man mayhem can take a punch...idc what ppl say about bisping having *pillow fists*. everyone thought cain had *pillow fists* until he ko'd minotauro

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@MrTrauMMA i don't think he has pillow fists just his gameplans for leban sexyama and dan miller put me too sleep

im British aswell btw i dislike bisping :D

[gino26gman]

@MrScottishcuntface1 shields schooled mayhem on his feet haha

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@gino26gman wow really? i remember sheilds having a bleeding nose and everytime miller stepped in he got taken down but yeah whatever

[secret212000]

@MrScottishcuntface1

What in the world is your comment doing with seven thumbs up? Shields at least managed to hit GSP and do serious damage to his face...Brock has good stand up but reacts like an amateur when he gets hit, but still managed to make herring flip backwards with one punch and also knocked out Couture.

Mayhem's stand up at the TUF finale was AWFUL!!! I honestly couldn't believe what I was seeing when it was happening...I'm agreeing 100% with Dana.

[videocheck19]

@secret212000 fucking nerd

[secret212000]

@videocheck19

*Claps* Good one. Wow... It's so magical how your mom sneaked outta my room and helped you post that...the universe is so grande.

Oh look! four complete strangers gave you thumbs up...You are sooo cool now. *stands up and does a slow clap*

So...do you have anything relevant to post?

[videocheck19]

@secret212000 A mom joke followed by "the universe is so grande" and "stands up and does a slow clap" No sir WOW to you for being so original and smart. that may be the first ever mom joke, did Dana agree 100% with you on that response???

[secret212000]

@videocheck19

says the guy whose brain power could only muster "fucking nerd"...

Finish 8th grade, add more grammar to your arsenal, and then come talk to me.

[etuar87]

@secret212000

Brock vs herring= lucky punch....brock vs couture= 50 punches at the back of the head

but i have to agree with you that mayhem´s performance was realy bad but still he deserves a second chance cause anybody could have a bad performance and it might realy could be ring rust, nerves ect...and if everybody would be kicked out by one bad performance then anderson silva wouldnt be in the ufc and many other too

[secret212000]

@etuar87

You need to be skillful in order to become lucky, especially at the high level. Brock fucked Herrings world with or without that epic punch. Brock wasn't targeting the back of Couture's head intentionally, he was moving around... the ref would have stopped it if he deemed it illegal. Mayhem shouldn't be cut, I never said that. I just said that his stand up was the worst thing I have ever seen from a top level professional fighter.

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@secret212000 wow really?!wow sheilds does well in the stand up ONE FIGHT

tbh i think stand up involves getting hit so no brocks dosn't have good stand up he gets hit once and goes into a turtle and gets pounded on just like when shane carwin was robbed :D

[imanuel2012]

@secret212000 Shut up keyboard warrior

[secret212000]

@imanuel2012

So I'm a keyboard warrior because I posted a logical opinion? OK...

[matklstrength]

@MrScottishcuntface1

danas a fucking idiot, he isnt an mma fan he's just a guy in suit just like th rest of them.

[txdx]

@MrScottishcuntface1 hahahaha so true

[bbsessh]

@MrScottishcuntface1 no i think brocks stand up is pretty good he has those really powerful strikes that u dont want to go toe to toe with him but shields i can see wat u mean thats why he got his ass kicked by ellengberger

[09Ginster]

@MrScottishcuntface1 brocks was / is no where near as bad as mayhems that night, at least brock has power, and I am a mayhem fan and wanted to win so bad, im just saying im disapointed by his standup

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@09Ginster lol brock has power he is a fucking 265 pound heavyweight be worrying if he didn't have power in his hands

[09Ginster]

@MrScottishcuntface1 lol your a troll you know what i meant!

[LADYGAGAISGODx]

@MrScottishcuntface1 BROCK HAS SHIT STAND UP YOU DUMB MOTHER FUCKER GO WATCH HIS FIGHT WITH RANDY AND HEATH..

[MrScottishcuntface1]

@LADYGAGAISGODx you just said brock has shit stand up thanks for agreeing with me means alot

[moneymal1]

@LADYGAGAISGODx shit you ain't lyin once brock gets beat up in the stand up game he will take you to the ground that why i tink if he doesn't take overeem to the ground fast he will get his ass knocked out
