That guy is hilarious without even trying. Couldn't stop laughing at the bit in the middle when he turns to the camera and says "That's ****in illegal".

I totally agree with him aswell. And nobody says **** better than Dana. He just doesn't hold back. Dana for President!!

I wish Dana White would get off the fence and tell us what he really thinks ... oh wait ... he always does

I love all the jump cut editing in that video it gives the impression Dana ranted for hours.

Doesn't look good for Elite. But let's be clear, many, MANY organizations have had fixed or worked fights go on under their banner.

Pancrase - more fights than I care to mention
Pride - Coleman Vs Takada, Or Rampage being asked to lose against Saku. Mezger got offered more money to lose as well from recollection.

UFC - Taktarov V Macias -
Vitor Vs Joe Charles...both agreed supposedly to keep it to a grappling
match only.

There's a difference there. In Japan they can do whatever they want. Those two UFC fights you mentioned had nothing to do with the UFC working the fights, it was the fighters. In EliteXC's case it's the promotion being accused of it

Those 2 UFC fights were not known by the UFC themselves for sure. I didn't make the above that clear I suppose. I meant that it goes on all through RINGS right up to present day under the various banners.
