“[Machida] should have taken the fight. We’ve seen it, history always repeats itself. Look how long it took Rashad (Evans) to fight for the title again. So you wanted to fight Jon Jones, you climbed up to the title fight and you don’t take it. Now you’re fighting (expletive) Dan Henderson. Now you might not even get to the (expletive) title again. You lose to Dan Henderson you’re not anywhere near Jon Jones,” -Dana White
In his usual childish and disrespectful manner, Dana White bashes Machida for not taking the fight against Jon Jones on several weeks notice. The whole mess with UFC 151 was no ones fault but Dana White, and of course he blamed everyone but himself. During this situation Dana has put down Dan Henderson, Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida, three top five Light Heavyweights. I’m not sure what he hopes to accomplish by bashing his own fighters but he isn’t helping anything.
About the fight itself, I would love to see it. This match up has never happened before and both of these guys are great fighters.
