Dana White had a discussion with MMA Junkie and gave some insight to Chuck Liddell’s future with MMA and more so the UFC.
“He’s not just going to get a paycheck,” White said. “I want him to play a role in this [company] and actually come in and work and do something. I’m going to give him a real job.”
This is great. This to me is a nice big slap in Tito’s punk ass face. This is exactly what TIto wanted to do with UFC and Affliction and has failed to do so. I think it’s great that Chuck has the chance to become part of this organization and go further with a real career.
Dana also went to mention that Chuck’s induction to the UFC Hall of Fame would probably be sooner than later.

Yawn….I am less than impressed to hear this. Not because of the writing quality of the article, But because MMA seems to be sliding sideways. Is Dana implying that fighting is not a real job? Probably not, but the whole tone seems off to me.

i beleive fighting is a real carreer and a hell of alot harder than anything she does everyday. im hoping to become an mma fighter at some point so i find this insulting.
