Tito wants an Apology from Dana White
« on: May 15, 2008, 09:51:28 AM »
"You know what it really comes down to is just (UFC president) Dana White. If he learns to shut his mouth and learns to respect me there is a possibility yet. (He needs to) give a public apology for the things that he has done. That is just what it really comes down to, but I want to go with a company that is going to respect me and see me as the champion I am and the ambassador that I am of the sport and not really downplay me or disrespect me on television or anything else."   ::)


Anybody else tired of this guy bitching about Dana White?  You wanted a boxing match with him, he agrees, then you chicken out.  He gives you fights with Lidell, he makes you a coach on TUF.  Come on dude, stop whining!  If he leaves the UFC he'll be fighting for a chump organization and will disappear into oblivion, just like Fedor has and Randy has.  Like it or not, the UFC is where the best fighters are.

As much as I am a fan of the UFC, they should recognize that fighters and their personalities are an important part of their success.  It's no coincidence that Tito has been on the highest rated PPVs.

I agree with you completely.  I like watching Tito fight, and his personality is larger than life -- like him or not.  But he should show the same respect toward the UFC that he wants them to show to him.  He says he will leave, to go where?  The UFC is the main stage right now.  No other organization can even come close.  If he leaves, his career will fizzle faster than he realizes.  Nobody wants to pay $30 to watch him beat up some schmuck.  Sometimes these guys ego's become their undoing.  I think that's what happened with Randy Couture.

What should Dana exactly apologize for?  ???

If it's again about being paid too little, don't fucken sign the contract, take the money and later whine it was too little! Can't believe Couture did that too, what a moron.

How many times have you gone to McDonalds and after eating a hamburger, the manager of the store comes to you and complains you didn't pay enough for the hamburger?

The problem is that his contract is up and the new one was waaaay less.  Understandably, Tito isn't happy about being the big draw that he is and now getting paid less.

The UFC needs skilled & charismatic fighters and the fighters need the UFC.

Tito is a BIG draw.  I see them working their differences out in the end.  I don't see Dana apologizing though.  Money talks.

Many of his resent fights haven't lived up to the hype, but it was clear that he wasn't fighting with the same explosiveness that he's had in the past.  He's blamed it on back & knee injuries and says he is 100% for this next fight.  Let's see what happens.

He always says he'll be 100% percent for the next fight.  He's done.

They all say that.  Can't go into a fight saying something like "I have a torn rotator cuff, but I think I can still win".

Tito needs to move on if he wants to keep any form of legacy he believes he has. His fights since resigning in UFC have been suspect at best and depite having charisma etc his star power is diminishing in my opinion.

Move on tito

As for Dana apologizing.....never going to happen as his ego dont compute the word apologize.

He says he will leave, to go where?  The UFC is the main stage right now.  No other organization can even come close.
