Dana White Discusses Loan Fedor Regret

By Matt Molgaard <Br>

Dana White has long proclaimed that he has no personal issues with the now retired, Fedor Emelianenko (34-4-0-1). In fact White has (attempted) to stand by the fact that his only problem with the now retired Russian has been his management. That said, White obviously regrets not securing at least a single UFC fight for the former Pride heavyweight champion, and he’s now openly addressing that.<Br><br>



It seems White’s faith in former UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar (5-3) never strayed far from fever pitch, and White certainly aimed to see the two tangle while the WWE import’s stock hovered at its greatest peak. We all know how that went…<Br><br>



"Obviously, I would have loved to make that fight with him and Brock at that point in time," White told MMAjunkie.com. "It would have been awesome. But it obviously didn't happen."<Br><br>



For a guy who never had much against Fedor however, White’s general attitude seems to bring things into question, "I have nothing against Fedor whatsoever," stated White. "He's definitely got some hardcore fans, man. I mean the guy can get knocked out four times in a row, and they still think he's the [expletive] greatest ever." No… that certainly wasn’t a low blow aimed at Fedor directly… was it?<Br><br>



Not according to White, who insists, "There's definitely no hate at all for Fedor. It was always his management. Anytime you ever heard me talk, it was about 'Vadummy' or the guys who managed his career.” Strangely enough, that just doesn’t ring as complete honesty on White’s part.<Br><br>
