MMA Squared Ep 16: Why won’t Dana promote the fighters?
Hello. This is Chris. Welcome to MMA Squared, and today we want to know:
We used to be able to count on him at least pushing the champs for each division.
That rhetoric has died down and been replaced by... not much of anything.
I’ve got a sad theory as to why that is, so let’s go through the divisions and do a little assessment of his promotional relationship with each champ in the men’s divisions.
Heavyweight: Stipe Miocic sat out for more money, and then wouldn’t even let Dana put the belt on him after breaking the all-time HW defense record.
Light Heavyweight: The only time Dana shows any enthusiasm for Daniel Cormier is when he’s fighting Jon Jones.
