I saw an interview with Dana White & The CEO of the UFC on Fox & here's some of Dana's comments on WWE.
When asked "In how many years do you think it would take to become bigger than the WWE & Boxing?"
He said:
"We already are. Last year we were bigger than both combined." (in PPVs)
And other comments he made were
"We're a sport WWE is not. We're actually real; they're not."
Opinions?

I hate that f****** argument. 'Ooo, it's not real!'
Neither are movies... neither is SpongeBob Squarepants, but he's still better than UFC.

No, but you bet your sweet pants Jellyfishing is. I seriously must agree- it's a form of Entertainment...a show- an Art. Not a sport. Not even an insult, it's just pointing out the obvious. |

I'm just saying, the 'We're real, they're not' is a pointless comment to make. It's like state the f****** obvious. I shall stop with the swearing now. Just annoys me to death. |

He's right about that though. WWE is not a sport.
But then you have the argument that everybody makes, WWE/wrestling is fake. Never taking into consideration what happens behind the scenes and even the things in the ring people aren't aware of.

He's just stating the obvious. Nothing to even take a second look at as an insult. People want White and Mcmahon to be at eachother's throats so badly that it's sickening. Just because they're competing(as far as PPV buys and revenue goes) doesn't mean they have to hate eachother. The media wants to create dama so badly. That's why I can't stand the press. Dirt is all they care about.

Where was Dana in the 80's, then that would have been a huge comment.... Vince should call out Forrest Griffin for being a bitch and quiting his fight.... That looked rigged. |
