Also i bet he still plays a big part but he just doesnt do all of it anymore if he retires.

Hopefully if he decides to leave in 8 or 10 years from now, MMA will be in a whole new level where he won't be as needed as he is now.

I am hereby putting my name in the hat as replacement. I love UFC, own my own plane, and say **** just as much if not more than he does. I would even job shadow for the next 7 years, and shave my head, as horrible as that may be. I'd do it for you guys!

I really dont think he will retire, I can see him running the UFC until he dies, he loves the UFC too much to not have a role in it

From what I know about Menire's disease is that while surgery can cure it you lose hearing in that particular ear a large portion of the time. Usually reducing your stress levels and using a variety forms of management help it (from what I've researched before)
Here is the article where Dana revealed his disease. I assume that is why he missed UFC on Feul 3 (they said he was getting minor surgery or something). Here

1984 - David Stern Becomes Commissioner of NBA - 28 Years
2006 - Roger Goodell becomes commissioner of NFL - 6 Years
1992 - Bud Selig Becomes Commissioner of MLB - 20 Years
1993 - Gary Bettman Becomes Commissioner of NHL - 19 Years
2001 - Dana White and the Fertittas buy the UFC - 11 Years
That would be weird to see him not be the media of the UFC after just 18 years. Id like to see him there for at least the 25 year mark.
