By the way, we are all still waiting for the UFC to appear on one of the major broadcast networks. Maybe if Dana worked harder and signed a deal before EliteXC then the debut of MMA on one of the major networks would have been better. So yeah, I would say that what was considered by some people to be a lackluster debut of MMA on broadcast television is all Dana's fault.  |
The big issue has been about the production. I think it's a smart move by Dana to remain stubborn on this issue. If the show is going to be a representation of the company and MMA, you want your staff who has the experience producing the quality shows the fans are used to.
