[...] UFC President Dana White remarks that either Madison Square Garden or the Boston Garden will host a UFC event for the first-time ever before 2008 expires. Mixed martial arts is not regulated in either New York or Massachusetts — an issue that the promotion is attempting to change. In fact, White met with the Massachusetts state athletic commission while he was in town to promote the World Championship Fighting show on February 8, according to the Boston Herald. We hear White say this often … perhaps the current situation has improved. Either way, it seems Marc Ratner still has quite a bit of work ahead of him to ensure that his boss lives up to his guarantee. Good luck. February 11th, 2008 [...]

What fights did Chuck not deserve?Ã‚Â However, you are right about Dana deserving props because he has made some great moves for the organization.

[quote comment="299072"]What the hell is Dana doing at another show?[/quote]

I’m surprised he doesn’t do this more often. More interest in small shows = more interest in MMA = more interest in UFC. By promoting the sport as a whole, he’s continuing to grow an audience that will eventually put money in his pocket and without boosting an organization that could actually rival the UFC and WEC. Plus, Zuffa’s leagues need these small organizations to feed them talent, which they can’t do if 150 people show up to watch these fight cards.

[quote comment="299220"][quote post="4439"]Y did Tito Ortiz say on Howard Stern that he was worth 50 million? Could that be possible?[/quote]

If it is possible why is the guy bitching about how much hes getting paid?[/quote]

I think he’s made a lot of money outside the UFC. I think his point is he can make more money elsewhere doing something less physically demanding.

Did you guys not read the whole list of guest fighters?
Sean “The Gladiator’ Gannon
You know the guy who beat Ghetto Master Kimbo Slicer?
Recently Dana basically said that Gannon is a bum
in MMA so Kimbo is a bum as well.
I’d love for someone to call out Gannon for Kimbo at this
and video tape it and get that fight in MMA soon.

Couture was the special guest at a Hardcore Fighting Championship out west on the 1st i think it was. Fair is fair i guess. But Dana is still a terrible president. Loves the camera.

REALLY? Sweet. I watch Jimmy most nights. He just had Tank Abbott on there last week, or maybe the week before.

Good for you Mike. Hope he gets ya something nice for valentine’s Day. lol[/quote]

LOL, its an inside joke for any Jimmy Kimmell Live viewers out there… Sarah Silverman’s big surprise for him on his 5th Annerversary/40th Birthday show. It was hillarious, especially considering everything that was said before hand. To see just the video, click:

I figured there was something behind it, I like Kimmel, but I’m an early riser so I don’t catch the show very often. Thanks for clarifying.
