Dana White lauds Mark Cuban, fires back at Gary Shaw
Love him or hate him, Dana White will always speak his mind. When asked by the Boston Herald on his views on Mark Cuban of HDnet and Gary Shaw of Elite XC, White said the following:
“We’ll see who’s around in five years, me or Gary Shaw. There’s some ego for you. The reality is I know what the (expletive) I’m doing and Gary Shaw doesn’t. If you go and search Gary Shaw and mixed martial arts (on the Internet), this guy was saying five years ago that mixed martial arts was a joke. (He said) it’s not a real sport, these guys are barroom brawlers. Now that fat, bloated (expletive) is running around acting like he loves mixed martial arts.”
“I don’t dislike Mark Cuban at all,” White said. “He’s a smart guy and he’s made lots of money. … And he’s invested millions and millions of dollars into (HDNet). He thinks that MMA is a hot commodity right now so he’s trying to get viewers. What he wants to do is build HDNet up and then sell it to Comcast or Time Warner or one of the other cable systems. He doesn’t give a (expletive) about mixed martial arts.”
