Dana White Talks Brock Lesnar, Tito Ortiz, Fans, And More

Dana White on Brock Lesnar:

"When we talked to his doctor's, this thing that happened to him..he's had for over a year.  So the doctor says the guy[Lesnar] has been at 60% of his potential.  That's a lot [expletive] scary. He's at 60-percent of his potential? What's going to happen when he comes back? How much faster can you beat people? Hopefully we can get though this."

So Lesnar fought Couture and Mir at only 60%?  Do you think that's true or just promoter talk?  I for one have never been able to figure out how people give percentages of things like this.  I mean, how can the doctor determine he was only at 60% of his potential?

I’m no medical expert, but I wonder if the doctor didn’t say something to the effect of his intestines functioning at 60% or something like that. That’s not exactly the same as saying that Brock’s athletic performance was at 60%. Who, knows, though. If that were true it would be a scary thought.

typical dana speak.

if he was only fighting at 60% you think the ferttita’s should get back 40% of the money they have paid lesnar? this whole hospital incident has been blown out of proportion by dana. maybe b.l. can make a killing with his deathclutch clothing attire which just happens to be my picture.

yes i am obsessive, obnoxious, in your face and all about covering the spread. those are my good qualities.

agreed

Dana’s some man to seel a PPV, this is just him seeling the “human interest” angle.

Good Job too, cos im sold :) come back soon Brock!!

If he was suffering from something that serious it’s still a pretty scary thought. Dana is Mr. Blow-Shit-Out-Of-Proportion though.

Bloody hell.
