sir... that is just the worst sentiment ive heard.. i really applaud your contributions to those who do not have things that we take for granted everyday... but really you have to come on a message board and complain about how you donate but are called names?? i mean if you are donating for people to think youre a good person thats your business.. i donno i guess getting recognition for your donation isnt really something to be brought up imo and i frown upon it..

However let me thank you again, and anyone for that matter, for donating to those who do not have as comfortable of a life as you do.. you truely make this world better no matter what reason you do it.. just dont bitch about not getting credit for it feel good about yourself for helping some1 out...

You sir are a moron. To compare a manager/promoter to a organization owner is idiotic. Don King was taking fighters personal money, Dana White i'm sure used his own personal money and even if he didnt then the COMPANIES money. Not a fighters money. Just stop the trolling please or your time here will be pretty short.

Can you explain to me how some fighters are making as low as $3,000 in the UFC? Ok, Dana is paying one of his fighters who is risking his life in Dana's cage a mere $3K but yet Dana is giving a complete stranger whom he has no vested interest in, $5,000?

Because those fighters signed a contract to get paid that. I doubt that girl or anyone else with cancer asked to have it. You have fighters lining up left and right to fight for that contract. GSP? Heard of him? That's how much he was making when he got into the UFC. You want a big fat contract? Win your fucking fights. How dare you compare the willingness of a fighter to fight for $3000 to a girl afflicted with cancer. Shame on you troll.

My problem isn't with the girl fighting cancer. My problem is with the true integrity of a man who's being applauded for donating a sum of money which is as good as pocket change to him and at the same time, much of that money coming from the cheques of those who shed their blood so that his business can continue to thrive.
All he did was donate a few thousand. Anybody can donate that if they have the means. The kid still needs a lot more money to have this surgery done. So let's calm down with the "All Hail Dana" BS on here.
Just remember, this is the same man who is hoping for the failure of other human beings in the sport of MMA. This is the same man praying for the failure of other organizations. This is the same man wishing bad things on other people trying to make a living.
So I think you boys need to stop the "Dana is a cool guy" BS and look to reality. One stupid donation doesn't change your character by any means nor does it change who you truly are.
Like I said before, even the "Devil" Don King made a few contributions here and there. He's still a motherf*cker with evil intentions who's keen on stepping on others to get what he wants.
Dana White is no different. Get your head out of your butt and see reality for what it is.

Listen, i'm not a Dana lover, but i respect the guy. He helped purchase a company on the verge of bankrupcy, took control, and worked his ass off to make it the huge thing it is today.

What do you expect the guy to do after all this hard work? take home a $40 000 a year salary? this is his business, his life and blood, of course he's going to be rich. someone posts something on here about dana white giving a dying little girl money so she can have the surgery she needs, and everyone here says some kind words and you tear into him like he's doing it just to look good. it's his money, not the fighters money. hes not bragging aboout it

of course he makes some shitty decisions here and there, and it would be good to see fighters with a little bit bigger purses for putting themselves through these fights. but remember the size of this sport right now. this isn't the MLB or the NFL where people get huge contracts. they cant afford to be giving everyone 100k every fight.

quit trying to get attention.

Dana only donated $7500. The family still needs almost $200,000 more to get this surgery done and soon!

Just remember, even Don King donated $50,000 to some charity while leeching off his boxers. I'm sure not ready to call this motherf*cker a saint after all the lives he's ruined, I assure you.

Neg'd. Seriously? He's just trying to help out someone in a tough situation, and he gets villainized for it. That's absolutely ridiculous.
