I think we all love when Dana White goes off into a rant over M-1, signing Fedor Emelianenko and Jerry Millen. It’s always something that is quote worthy and worthy reading, cause you know he is going to curse up a storm and deny their most recent statements.
In a interview with MMAJunkie.com, the UFC president responded to Jerry Millen’s claims that M-1 would let Fedor Emelianenko fight Brock Lesnar for free.
White says there is no way they would do the fight for free, because when he offered M-1 and Fedor millions of dollars they turned down the deal.
“They’ll do the fight for free?” White asked. “That’s [expletive] weird because I offered them millions of dollars to take the fight and he didn’t take it. Now [Emelianenko] wants to fight for free? When and where? I’d love him to fight for free. I’ll make that [expletive] fight right now for free. Let’s do it. That’s funny that they say they’ll do it for free now when they were dealing with us and negotiating with us they wanted 50 percent of our business,” White said. “They wanted 50 percent of our business to do that fight, but now they’ll do it for free?”
Dana also responded to his long time nemesis Jerry Millen, who has gone back and forth trading insults since PRIDE was the UFC’s main competition and Japanese MMA was dominant.
“[Millen] is a [expletive] clown that talks out of his ass and has no business (discussing the negotiations),” White said. “That guy is a nobody. When we did the big Fedor negotiations, you think he was in it? He wasn’t even in it. That guy’s full of [expletive]. Tell him to go frost his [expletive] hair again and beat it. “
White once again reiterated that if Fedor wants to sign with the UFC in the future he can, but co-promotion and taking half of the income from a event will never happen. He also passed blame on M-1 Global and their “Strong-arm” tactics.
“We offered [Emelianenko] lots of money – so much money that it caused lots of [expletive] with our other fighters,” White said. “That’s how much money we offered him. And guess what he said. ‘No, we want 50 percent of your business.’ That’s some Russian strong-arm [expletive]. They can get away with that [expletive] out in Russia to the baker that works down the street. They’re not coming to America and doing that.
“If Fedor wants to fight the best in the world, he can call right now. We can [expletive] cut a deal right this second, and we can do it.”
I don’t think there is a chance in hell that Fedor will ever fight in the UFC. As long as M-1 is his management team and Dana White is running the promotion, their demands are non-negotiable.
