Dana White - President and Co-founder of the UFC

• I really can't believe that I haven't mentioned Dana White before!  Not only is he Sly, but he brought us the exciting sport that many of us watch; the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
  
  According to Wikipedia:
  
  White has a background as an amateur boxer, but he later gave up as an active fighter and did not turn pro. In 1992, White established Dana White Enterprises in Las Vegas. He owned three gyms in the Las Vegas area, and using his experience in boxing he trained boxers and taught boxercise classes. He also promoted boxing events and managed boxers, eventually including mixed martial arts fighters as his clients.
  
  As a manager for UFC fighters Tito Ortiz and Chuck Liddell, White learned that Semaphore Entertainment Group, the parent company of the UFC, was looking for a buyer for the UFC. White soon contacted Lorenzo Fertitta, a childhood friend, an executive at Station Casinos, and a former commissioner of the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Within a month Lorenzo Fertitta and his older brother Frank Fertitta III bought the UFC, with White installed as its president.[2] White currently owns 10% of Zuffa, LLC, the entity the Fertitta brothers created to own and manage the UFC.

• Dana White is a friggin stud. Anyone see the "What the F***, nothing pisses me off more than fuys not making weight." You got to respect a guy who tells it like it is to some of the toughest fighters in the world.

• He's a joke as far as portraying the professional image that MMA and UFC needs... can't do an interview without dropping his favorite word - the f-bomb.
  
  Back on topic, he looks so much better Sly its ridiculous.  Do you guys remember him from the UFC's when Zuffa took it over from SEG?
  
  Let me show you...
  
  Heres a quick pic I found...

• Liddell got knocked out cause of that silly mohawk.  He would of probably won if he converted to the way of the sly!

  Yeah, his hair wouldn't have caused so much drag and he would have been able to get away from it.

• Oddly enough Chuck Liddell is on Headblade.com as a user...LOL.  So is Rampage though, so I guess they cancel each other out.
  
  Dana does look much much better bald.  He does present a less than professional persona a lot of the time but a recent appearance on ESPN after the Rampage/Liddell fight makes me think that it's and act he can turn on and off at will.
