this is a cut and copy quote from the preconference posted at mmaweekly


“Just like 97 other fights in the last couple of months that one fell apart. Cantwell has some medical problems; he might not ever fight again,” were the unfortunate words of UFC president Dana White at Wednesday’s UFC 108 press conference.

so is Dana sky always falling ?

to a certain extent IMO... I think he complains and is such a loud mouth to get publicity (all publicity is good) but he also likes to complain lol. That being said, I can't blame him, dude has good reasons to be crazy stressed.

Dana does enjoy using words such as NEVER, EVER, and ALWAYS (with wings), and exaggerates quite a bit.

"-Insert name- will never fight in the UFC again -Insert reason-" In some cases add an "as long I'm as I'm UFC president" and there you go. Then the same fighter is back in the UFC within a few months.

Really in this case I think it is a mix of him being butthurt about the loss of $$$ of rep with all these injuries, and choosing not to filter his feelings. In general though he doesn't do much to avoid drama. If any press is good press as mentioned above, it could be argues he is just keeping his name and the UFC's name in whatever spotlight is willing to shine at the time. Depending on what type of business you own/take part in being a "drama queen" could be beneficial. Maybe we should just call him a drama princess.

I thought Dana was a Jazzercise instructor? Is that a drama queen or a different kind of queen? Either way I guess Dana fits the bill.
