Dana White Comments on Kimbo Controversy
 Date submitted: 13 October 2008
Author: Mick Bower
It took Seth Petruzelli 14 seconds to put away “Kimbo Slice” Kevin Ferguson - but the controversy surrounding the fight will not go away. As well as critics questioning the pedigree of the competitors, there have been allegations that Petruzelli was paid to stand and trade with Slice.
UFC President Dana White has had his say. He told the Boston Herald:
“It disgusts me. I’ve been busting my (expletive) for 10 years flying all over the planet to show everybody what a great sport this is and what amazing people are involved in it. Then CBS throws this guy who fights at people’s barbecues on the main event because they’re trying to compete with us, and he gets knocked out in (14) seconds by a guy who didn’t win ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ and couldn’t fight in the UFC. Then the guy turns around the next day and says, ‘The promoters actually paid me to not go to the ground with this guy. They paid me to stand up,’ which I’m pretty sure is illegal.”
(“Kimbo Slice” Kevin Ferguson is) a joke. It was bound to happen. These guys have lost $60 million trying to get this thing off the ground. They’re building their promotion around a guy who can’t fight. It’s kind of (expletive) stupid, isn’t it? You’re in the fight business and you’re building your business around a guy who can’t fight.” |
