Post-fight press conference is ongoing. Let's see who has the balls to ask Dana why he didn't sign Knutsson tonight. If someone does, we might see Dana's tomato head again

Yeah man, like I said about Brito/Elliott... I don't think either one will fair well in the UFC.  Wow.  I think more often than not Brito wins that fight but what a terrible look in the second round having him dead to rights and just staring at him instead of throwing some elbows or anything along the fence.  I got that one wrong!

@RHillmanMMA 

 This is an example of a human mind gone haywire. If you read these words I hope things get better for you buddy, externalizing your fears won’t quell your inner anguish. There are many problems with our world, yes. However your completely unsubstantiated rant will only move the needle backwards. This is tapology man, please stop smashing your fingers on a keyboard and procure some self awareness/ basic sense. I know you’re in pain and I hope you can find the help you need. I promise you that it’s not too late and is worth the effort required. Having a mental breakdown on tapology wont make the pain go away. These rants of yours are doing the opposite of what you intend, misery lives company as the saying goes but that you can be better. I hope that you don’t have children, and if you do then for f**ks sakes get your s**t together man. Don’t be the person you despise others for being. You just become another hypocrite who will never be taken seriously by anyone present in reality. Good luck to you man, I hope you can learn to accept/appreciate yourself and life in general. It’s not fair often times, but it isn’t out to get you.
