Dana White gets torched by UFC fans for denying contract to undefeated fighter sensation

People think Dana White has an easy job when he is selecting the new fighters who will represent the UFC in new generation But the reality is that eery single time Dana White has to make a decision, he doesn't make it by himself as he has a team of experts who help him get to that point. The place where he makes the final call on fighters who are trying to get themselves a UFC contract is known as the Dana White Contender Series. A specific fighter who is currently 9-0 was expected to get himself a new contract but his performance of the evening wasn't what Dana White expected. And when he gets on people's faces with "constructive" criticism, Dana White can be pretty ruthless.

Dana White shuts down undefeated fighter from a UFC contract

When White made the announcement, everybody expected 25-year-old Torrez Finney and everybody expected him to be selected to get a new contract. But Dana plays some of his decisions by ear and depending on how these fighters perform on that key day. Unfortunately, Finney didn't perform per Dana White's standards. Byt the time Dana had to speak to Finney, he decided to bruttaly roast hi in hopes that he can improve his level of performance. Because last year, this fighter was performing at a higher level accoding to dana White himself. UFC fans who expected Finney to get a contract were fuming at the way in which White handled this.

Here's what Dana said: "Finney, now you were here last year and my recommendation to you was to go out and get some experience, you're young, you're obviously talented, you're now 9-0, you got one fight, you went out in one year and fought one fight. You know, I'm always brutally honest with this stuff, you'd get absolutely decimated in the UFC with the performance that you put on tonight. Your performance last year was better than this performance. You're 25 years old, kid, you're obviously a talented athlete go out and get three or four fights this year, then come back to us and talk about the UFC."
