This was the final straw for me in terms of Dana White's character. I was on the fence before... I loved the guy for bringing MMA into the mainstream spotlight like all fans of the sport do, and I also loved the fact that he spoke his mind and doesn't take shit from the media. Then there was the interview with his mother that cast some doubt on the quality of his character, and now this. This is possibly the biggest example of hypocrisy I have ever seen. What's even worse than the obvious hypocrisy though, is the inequitable treatment of the UFC's employees! The disparate treatment displayed here is outrageous and disgusting. I truly truly hope this is not the direction in which the UFC is going to continue to go now that they have a major network television deal. If this course isn't altered immediately, this is just the tip of the iceberg that will eventually lead to censoring of the UFC in a way that will alienate many if not all of the UFC's fans. Not only that, but the application of discipline will continue to be completely subjective, and arbitrarily based on the whims of upper-management, whether motivated by profit or sheer ego. Ok, that's the end of my rant. Get your shit together DW, for all of our sakes!
