. | You can remove the word best...
King doesn't care who wins or loses, he's not interest in good fights, he cares about making himself rich...
His record speaks for himself, see how well some of his fighters are doing today and you'll have a pretty good indication that there should be more emphasis on the "filthy" than the "rich"...

The former president of PrideFC-Just because they put on some incredible shows and he's great at building fighters and promotion. | Don King? I thought i've seen things where a lot of his ex-fighters have had problems w/ bankruptcy (Tyson most notably), and that he always took more than his fair share of the money. I think Don King is a better punchline than promoter at this point. He also doesn't like matching up his best fighters because he wants them to have padded 30-0 records w/ 27 KO's, MMA don't roll like that.

Don King would ruin MMA. He needs to stay as far away from MMA as possible. Anyone who has the sport of MMA in their best interest will tell Don King to go buy a comb and fuck off.

If Dana decides to quit he should have himself cloned first and just let his clone take over. If he did leave the downward spiral would begin.

I thinks it's time for a Roger Goodell type to run the UFC.

I like Dana and personally wouldn't want anybody else. I bitch about him all the time, but he's not only a good business man that keeps the org [way] above water, he's also entertaining. I think a guy like Goodell or David Stern would lack the Charisma and flavor of a Dana White.
