As per the Fertitta brothers, the UFC wouldn't have made it if it weren't for Dana White. And he still is the driving force.

I absolutely love that he tells it as he sees it. And I wish other CEO's (yes, Bill Gates included) would do the same. 🙂

Neither of the brothers actually believe that, the only say it because Dana will tear them each 4 new assholes if they say anything bad about him. Dana's basically just a figure head, he has some power but I'd say Joe Silva's by far the most important person to the UFC. He makes good match ups (most of the time) if it was left to Dana, he'd let his feelings get in the way and would keep potential epic fights from happening from a comment from one of the fighters he didn't like. Dana's a rash asshole, that might have worked when they were PPV and on Spike, but now they're on a major network he has to tone it down a lot. Fox won't put up with 100% Dana White, if he continues on with his f bomb filled rants and tweetin while drunk off his ass. Fox won't renew the contract with them I bet.

At times he's entertaining, but when he's on Twitter calling people fat fucks and berating ufc fans left and right it starts to wear thin very fast. Mind you he's not saying "fuck you!" to people who don't like the UFC. A huge fan can say "I love the UFC and never miss a PPV, but..." And Dana will still go ape shit on them.
 
Wow. Fucking Bisping seriously. Wtf are you guys smoking? Bisping is a scrub.* I know in real life he'd kick my ass. * Zuffa must have really poured it on thick and you guys have been lapping it up. I expect Sonnen to completely dominate him.
 
There is also a free It's Showtime event on Hdnet at 3pm on the east, 12pm on the west. Replay at 7pm west coast.

The UFC link shows which fights are being shown and where to watch. 3 are on Fox, the rest are on Fuel TV.

ahh.. fuel is a TV station, and not an energy drink ad.. lol.

evan vs davis: 1 loss vs unbeaten
sonnen vs bisping: cant wait to see who fights Silva for the belt. (prob sonnen. he was impressive in his last fight vs a former champ.)
maia vs weidman: meh

2 out of 3. not bad for free TV!
 
Oh boy, it's going to be good watching the count get his ass kicked. Good to see Dana tell those anonymous asshole where to go.
 
I agree with Joe, I think Bisping 29-28... first round was questionable, Sonnen got some clean shots that round but Bisping was more in control.
 
I HATE Bisping with a fiery passion, but I don't think Sonnen deserved a unanimous decision.

EDIT: But that interview was awesome, lol.
 
30-27? lol
29-27, ok

The rounds were tight tho, and Sonnen landed the best shot and was in control most of the time after the first.

I saw it:

Round 1 (10-9) Bisping... questionable, bigger shots were landed from Sonnen but Bisping was more in control.

Round 2 (10-9) Bisping... less big shots from Sonnen more control from Bisping than round 1.

Round 3 (10-9 -or- 10-8) Sonnen... complete domination in the last round.. nothing from Bisping.. getting full mount could have made it a 10-8 round.

If you see the first round the other way then I can see a 29-27 Sonnen
 
I sat at the table next to greg jackson and 3 fighters the day after christmas, at a benihana type place. I couldn't tell who the fighters were, looked/sounded eastern european. I don't do cell phones, so no pics.
 
i thought the fights were good. people bitch if there is fast ko's and bitch if they are good fights.

I gave the fight to Bisping. i thought for sure he won it. but it was close.

damn evens looked impressive.
