Dana White UFC 98 vlog: Sign Fedor!
UFC made Dana White work on his recent New York trip to promote UFC 98 and the new video game. White did interviews on satellite radio, The Jimmy Fallon Show, CNBC, The Dan Patrick radio show, ABC News, AP, ESPN's First Take and made an appearance at the Times Square GameStop.
CNBC asked the question if a "professional" needs to come in and run UFC after all the attention White's style has garnered recently.
White also heard from New York MMA fans (8:31 mark), who scribed "Sign Fedor" in chalk on the sidewalk in front of the GameStop. Fedor Emelianenko is regarded by many as the No. 1 MMA fighter in the world. The UFC and Fedor's camp have had several discussions about bringing to stoic Russian on board to fight with the promotion.
It was also neat to see a pair of cops from N.Y.P.D. talking (7:27 mark) about Tom Atencio's fight challenge and the fact that White lost a video game battle against Georges St. Pierre while in Montreal for UFC 97.
In the day two vlog, White makes the rounds. He meets Matt Lauer (3:45 mark) and there's an extended view of his appearance with Jimmy Fallon (5:45 mark).
