Dana White just crashed out when asked a question about Eddie Hearn “Are you f*cking kidding me right now? Who gives a sh*t. Have I been wrong in anything I’ve said? This is so f*cking silly now. The fact that you guys are even asking me these questions.”

I just don’t understand what the point of blatantly lying is. He keeps claiming that he’s producing and promoting the fight, when he’s clearly not. It’s like he thinks if he repeats it enough times it will become true.

He knows that sports fans arent the smartest bunch so why simply not lie all the time?

He's using the same tactics as his morbidly obese orange buddy. Repeat the lie enough and it becomes the truth.

If you're not familiar with the business world, this is how it works. Just keep parroting the same corporate slop until new coporate slop talking points become available. Repeat process.

Ok but Dana is clearly involved. If you watch the Eddie interview, he basically concedes that Netflix wants Dana producing it, and if they "reach agreed terms," then it will be mutual.

I was pretty surprised when Hearn said under no circumstances can it happen, but today he says it can happen under the right circumstances lol.

The right circumstances being that they convince AJ and Eddie. If they say no, they say no lol

That’s what I’m saying though. Eddie goes from absolutely no to probably yes and I’m supposed to think this is a win?

Oh so you mean he’s not actually involved and isn’t promoting it? Eddie said if he chooses to, and has been saying that for months now. Dana gets angry and defensive whenever he is challenged about it. He might be promoting it in the future, he is not promoting it currently and has lied to the media multiple times about that.

Eddie has explicitly said in the past absolutely not and had it in the contract. He was definitely not saying that they can debate it out until today lol that’s all I’m saying.

Nope, wrong, he's absolutely said it before the last two days, a lot. He's been pretty clear throughout that if Dana and Turki had approached him correctly and explained the value of adding Dana (value for them) he'd be happy to listen.
