@Angry, Well, he is the President of the UFC. If Ryan Couture is ok with it, I don't see why you are taking it so personally. Besides, it is a business.

That's really unfortunate for everyone involved. I think sometimes Dana gets a little hotheaded sometimes and probably should calm the **** down and think about things before he starts running off at the mouth, but I think for once he has a good point. I have thought a lot about how some fighters act behind the scenes when we aren't watching them. What kind of person they actually are if they are as "cool" and friendly as they seem on tv (like say Faber) or if they are actually ***** like say Overeem or Lesnar? But then again this is Dana calling someone less than a man so we got to take it with a grain of salt or the whole damn shaker considering it is coming from someone with such strong opinions about everything.

Im with Dana on this one, you wanna go with Bellator after the UFC made you a star, stay over there. Oh, and you dont get to come to any of my events, as a fan or cornermen.

Until I see irrefutable proof, I just don't believe it. Not even Dana could be that much of a *******.

THE UFC AND RANDY MADE EACH OTHER STARS. Without Randy there would not be some of the most memorable fights from 02-06. So to say UFC made Randy a star is pretty stupid.

Yea i can agree with that, but even still. I wouldnt have thought Randy would want to go, and sign with Bellator after what he and the UFC had been thru. Randy was a 2 division champion in the UFC. I would have thought he would have been on the broadcasting team for Fox or something like that.

FOX and the UFC have had ample time to make a deal with Couture and have not. So Randy went and made his own deal. In the scrum last night Dana said if Randy would have told him about it he would be fine, but since he lied to him about making the deal he is upset. It really has nothing to do with Bellator and more to do with Randy not being up front with Dana about it.

Yeah I can see Dana's point. If Randy really lied about the whole thing in instead of being up front about it I would be pissed off too. He could have told the UFC that he was jumping ship and that was the bottom line no hard feelings just need a change of scenery, thanks for the memories and happy new year. But according to Dana that wasn't the case, so I don't really blame him but we will see how long it takes for all of this to blow over and see Randy back in his sons corner.

They have too much history to let this remain an on-going thing. These things have a way of working out. Dana has a forgiving nature.

I don't believe Ryan is ok with it, and yes it's a business,so why do you ban a hall of famer from attending? Is that good business? I do not believe it is. Banning Randy is a personal decision,and Dana showed that during his rant. In short I feel that there was a man to man problem and Dana responded with " nanny nanny boo boo".

that will be dana's downfall. from the culinary union, to the Maloofs and to at least two ufc HOfamers and i'm sure more that we don't know about (behind the scenes) and of course future problems he will cause. DW out of a job mid 2014.
