Brett Okamoto asks really good questions.
Jon P
How can I fight in the ufc? Last time I was in the ring I got choked out and woke up covered in feces and was foaming up pre workout outta my mouth. I guess when I blacked out my bowels went limp and it was like the Hoover dam flowing mud. I did a punch test and they said my overhand right is the same energy as a full grown elk bucking his horns into an oak tree during mating season.
attracted to the metal like magneto
Brett wants that daddy Dana D
Shawn Wing
Bet you if the ufc does become the most valuable franchise in sports like Dana said they will still pay their fighters the least too
Rajat Kumar
Dana Red showed up
Rishifades
khabib looking at this fight like i smoked both of them LMAO
Brandon White
Man it is hilarious how much Dana is hoping Conor beats Dustin. He is trying to speak it into existence.
Brandon White
I think Dana might be lying about the Manny fight. Conor seems to hope/think it is going to happen.
mitch goldstein
I’m a big fan but I don’t see any depth in the talent pool

David Ramsey
Dana White is so predictable. Before you ask him a question, ask yourself which of these options will make Dana more money personally 🤣
michael murillo
Dana blushes when conor is mentioned. So, sweet it is like someone mentioning your crush.
slimcoty
Yo dana is a thumb thumb fr!

Dana said he would have an answer for us "that day". .. well, "that day" is Today.. we haven't heard anything yet.. still waiting Dana..
Ptao Tom
Omg!! U look amazing!!!?
Samir Khan
DANA RED
Jeff Scott
Its funny how he always talks like the UFC is real competition when he knows its RIGGED !!!
Scott D
"Me and everybody are always in a good place here"...such a liar and revisionist! What about the lawsuits? What about the insults between Dana and many fighters...over and over? Even though they are not my favorite, you don't see the same garbage and shady business tactics from Bellator MMA or most other MMA organizations. The only company as bad as the UFC as far as how they treat employees is BKFC. It's too bad these men think there is nothing more important than money...this is a sickness.
Scott D
@Ptao Tom Dang, Jenny...you are pretty hot...or whoever your thumbnail pic is, they are pretty hot, lol. Probably why you used the pic. Isn't the internet grand??
Ptao Tom
Very nice video...Great :)?

Amount of times conars retires I would have a million $$$

Fix the fight pass app. It’s sucks. It isn’t user friendly. It’s almost as bad as direct TVs app.
David Keyson
Dana all face lol
Martin Traphagen
That pink liquid in Dana's Voss water is progressively altering his skin tone

Dana Combatant an Chief 🇺🇸 dont you 4getit🇺🇸

Conner can lose he already has submission. Khabib clocked him. Ankhabib using a boxer go Dustin upset. Ya they happen

Dana in full promotion mode.
Nana Mensah
Wow. 29 mins of Connor questions asked 50 different ways with a few others sprinkled in. We only got other fights this weekend🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
TFBKID02
Dana so rich he don't care that he wearing that fresh sweater made of recycled baseballs.
B H
There is absolutely ZERO reason for Khabib to fight Conor after he destroyed him the first time. Literally dominated him the entire fight and made him tap. I’d like to see him go up to welter weight and compete for that title

If Mcgregor can make more money fighting Pacquiao he should absolutely do it without question. Dana thinking Conor should stick with UFC is not surprising, he cares about his bottle line not the fighters.
My balls, they itch
Can’t wait for my boy Dustin to wipe the floor with conors face and ruin all these casual plans.
Galileo Shift
dana's influence ? i see new fight gear, shin pads ,mouth pieces boxing & mma gloves in the general public department stores....thanks to dana's passion

Patrick Rutherford
Does Dana have a dip in ? Something weird about his mouth

His redness tells it self.
Afshan Tase
If Conor defeats Dustin, Khabib vs Conor will be huge

Ajdin Mekic
Why wouldn't you ask him about GSP v Khabib ?
james2774
I would be pissed off if Conor’s next fight will be January, 2022.
Steve M.
no question about the layoffs???!!!
Melo Ali
That Brazilian guy that broke Tony's arm would be a scary match up for Conor or Dustin.
Dart Droop
"just look at what Connor did to cowboy"
I've seen every fighter highlight putting a beating to cowboy
Daniel Lim
2021: Dear ESPN, please fire Brett. Thanks!
Iamthetruewalrus
but dana it will never be the biggest sport in the world. you will never curry great favor among open society. its always gonna be cagefights. Beautiful cagefights.
Inspectah deck
Dana is close to just making a belt for conor lmao

t4 fast
200 million for Khabib. Then Khabib has a problem :)
hypocritical cynic
Dana? We called him, "phallus-head," in high school.
(I do not know him and he was a confirmed tough guy in high school)
Mitchell Williams
Dana in it for the dollar signs like always. Kabib doesn't want to fight anymore, leave the guy alone. Just keep re forcing Connor down our throats again 😴😴😴
IIKHALAII
didn't he assault a woman
ldl1949
Dana looks like he has a lot of health issues
Andrew Brooks
Everytime he says that Conor ... He looks scared lolll
Sam Allen

TheNatural1981
Why didn't you ask him about Khabib vs GSP, the biggest fight in the world, or about anything GSP related? Come on bro.
Squab Mobb
If division is stacked with tough guys, why do Conor vs Khabib? Let the tough guys battle it out and stop fueling then Mcgregor hype train. Is he good yes, are there styles that can give him problems of course . He will never beat Khabib. Let Oliveira fight Gaethje or winner of Hooker and Chandler and set up vacant belt fight in summer. Look at Tony’s career lost because of all the Mcgregor politics and injuries. This guy takes too much time off and runs from every title defense. We need real champs that defend thrones. These title reigns with absent Champs ruin divisions. Look at HW, Francis should have fought for belt over a year ago but here we are.
Lee ONeill
Have to give it to Dana man I don't think the UFC would have stayed aloat and survived them early days when they were in heavy debt makin no money. He stayed focused on wat he believed changed the rules and structure and when he had to be ruthless he was I don't think anyone could have done the job he's done the way he's done it. The man's a pure inspiration happy 20th anniversary man
Arshbir Janagal
Dana dude that's too much Viagra use.
Ciaran Walsh
Who wants to see a boring wrestler back??? The only reason habib is as popular and made so much money is because he has the support of the Muslim world
Alex
Okay so let me get it straight.
Motivated Conor beat cowboy
Unmotivated Conor lost against khabib
Unmotivated Conor lost against floyd
Motivated Conor beat eddie
Unmotivated Conor lost against nate.
Okay. Got it.

I hope Connor never wins another fight. Done with that smug clown.
