It seems Dana White is on a roll as of late with his interviews. Last Saturday he said the UFC was close to signing Fedor Emelianenko before he retired, then he had a scathing interview on UFC Tonight, and at the pre-fight UFC 156 media scrum he unleashed on a multitude of topics.
At around 6:12 in the video below he speaks on Randy Couture, saying the former two-division champion is the farthest thing from “Captain America”, and that he is happy to not be in business with him anymore. According to White, he learned about the real Couture when Couture spread rumors about his pay when he tried to leave the UFC during his reign as heavyweight champion.
At around 8:30 in the video, White talks about Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, saying he is not upset that he is gone from the promotion. The UFC president points to Rampage’s attitude, penchant badmouthing the company, and his current losing streaks as all reasons not to resign him. White even says everything Rampage says is absolute bullshit.
Other interesting tidbits are that Chael Sonnen is wanted in a movie with Robert De Niro, Rashad Evans and Chris Weidman seem to be on the short list to face Anderson Silva, a stadium show is not on the radar for right now, the FOX deal was very last-minute and the UFC almost signed with another network, Alistair Overeem is going to get the title shot if he wins against Antonio Silva, Fight Metrics is going to supply the UFC with their own rankings, and of course White takes a little time to hype UFC 157 for the media in attendance.






Dana is such a cry baby when he doesn’t get his way.
RANDY COUTURE IS MORE HONERABLE A MAN THAN DANA WHITE COULD EVER HOPE TO BE , FUCK DANA THE DICTATOR !!
randy had the heavyweight belt and made less money than chuck liddell who didnt have a belt and was knocked out in 2 out of 3 fights. Randy was right to be pissed about his checks
Why can’t he just keep quiet?
randy couture helped build the UFC he’s been around the UFC before it was by Zuffa
Oh geez, shut up Dana. Stop being such a media whore.
just coz randy is making more money out of holywood lol @ you dana.
fedor to ufc?
he was good to do business with before lol
watch the video of THIS BABBLING FOOL !! WHAT A RETARD !!
Dana thinks MMA fans are idiots and that he can dictate what they think. What a hypocrite fool.
Dana stop your whining. FFS
Dana is a F’n cry baby….
Dana is a mouthy pussy…
Sounds to me like we have a bunch of Bitches right HERE !
Pfff, I respect Randy more than you Dana, and You can fuck off on this one.
Dana is a Jew He should get in the octagon and fight Randy lol
Randy’s just setting up a path for his son .. The UFCs talent will chew him up
Dana said that He is happy not to be work with Randy anymore but I think Randy is much happy not to be work with Dana anymore! Hahah
I dunno guys, I think there may be some truth in what Dana is saying. I love Randy as a fighter but maybe there’s something sinister that we don’t know about him.
What the fuck are all these comments ? They ask …. he answers ! thats his job … and why the fuck would someone go around saying rumors about their pay? Talking about your wage to other colleagues doesn’t sound big right? but its a huge factor in many companies and its in their contract !
Talking about pay brings up huge debates and arguments among employers and other colleagues … literally , you can get fired immediately for that .
Fuck u Dana and your bs system on number one contender spots quit having favorites .
Dana gets the press and gets the money it’s that simple. Go back and look at the arguments with Tito Ortiz. Business is business and even if you don’t like him Dana is a good business man.
