The following is an excerpt from a new interview with Dana White conducted by Sam Caplan from FiveOuncesOfPain.com:
Q: Josh Barnett was very critical of comments you made about Randy Couture right after his win at UFC 74 and somewhat questioned the legitimacy of Randy's title reign. Has Barnett burned a bridge to the UFC with his recent comments?
DW: He's just a punk. You know what? The thing is I don't want to even talk about Josh Barnett. Nobody even cares about Josh Barnett. I got Mirko Cro Cop, the guy that just beat the s— out of him. I'm not interested in Josh Barnett at all as far as who he is as a person or as a fighter or how he represents the sport. I don't like anything about him.
If he's that talented and that great, then great, let Bodog or IFL or EliteProXC or whatever the hell the name of the rest of those companies — let one of them sign him. If he's that great — they're always trying to get a leg up on me, sign Josh Barnett you guys! He'll do wonders for your business.
