From the Q&A.

War Dana!

Cuts boring fighters like Fitch and puts on superfights

couldn't ask for a better Pres

Gobbo

I'll believe it when I see it

Za1994

Dana says a lot of things.

Dark_Horse

Yeah, because Dana always tells the truth. @-)

Junglebird

80% chance Dana embarrasses himself again.

20% Chance Silva fighting Jones

0% chance GSP involved in any of this.

Anderson is doing all he can. Neither dude wants any piece.

MetatronBJJ

I don't want to hear him say it will happen. I need to see some proof that it is in the works.

Anderson can't make the fight against GSP, all he has to do to get the fight with Jones is say I'm moving to 205 to fight Jon Jones and it will happen

100% we hear this again next year

if AS is fighting in July, no way this will be a 170 fight. it might be:

[ ] GSP at 177
[ ] Jones for LHW title
[x] dana wrong one more time

Bandura

We could be watching the weigh ins and i still wouldnt be convinced

Dana should stop feeling this magical obligation to make this superfight happen. Jones and GSP have at least 2 top contenders in a row to fight, while Silva has a garbage division with maybe Weidman. Just because 185 is the worst division behind HW, it's not 170 or 205's problem to take a fight.

Pengu

Rather see them just fight in their own divisions, and just defend their titles.

secondsout

Agree with both two posts above. A quest for the "one ultimate fighter" does not appeal to me either.

Birdhound

I believe Dana also said Silva is going to fight 10 more times, that isn't going to happen either.

If MW is such a garbage division, then how did a fighter on a two fight losing streak completely destroy three top ten WWs? WW division = overhyped

This is a good point.

I wonder what Weidman thinks about Dana's confidence in Silva winning a fight that hasn't even been signed yet.

I wouldn't underestimate Weidman either. He could be the future of the division.

I really don't think Weidman is seasoned enough yet to challenge Silva. In a division without Anderson, he will be champ at some point.

What a joke,and guys just keep tuning in hoping it happens.Dana has zero problem lying.As long as people keep following.IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.Dana lie's about this situation so much he actually starts to believe himself.

PunchBag

dana should just stfu and make me a sandwich. when the fight is put together with both of the fighters signing to it then he can start running his mouth.

Junglebird

Even if Dana were to make one of these fights i would still not pay for it just because he lied for so many years.

The UFC had super fights LONG before Dana came along.He is NOT a good representation for the UFC,he runs his mouth a foul in EVERY media video.He cannot for once keep to the UFC,he ALWAYS has to go outside and disrespect other orgs and other people.It is always ok for him to say "i am sorry"for anyone else they are "douchebags"

Also do you need any kind of education or marketing training to know that putting on a super fight makes money ???Scot Coker is a million times better at his job,he paid guys well,his fighters were always happy,he held tournament style formats he wa shumble to the media and public,there si no comparison here.Dana is like a 3/10 Coker is a 10/10 ,there is ONLY one reason Dana is President and i shouldn't have to mention the reason why...Fertita's buddy. .Any other reason and Dana is a used car salesman,watching boxing on his home tv Al Bundy style.

Nope not gonna happen. Edgar will have another title shot by the end of the year though :>
