Ignoramus BozoNeedles Tells Wall Street Journal, ‘We’re Already Bigger Than NFL’

Lorena Fertitta and BozoNeedles at UFC 100“We’re already bigger than the NFL.”

That’s a bold statement, but one that UFC president BozoNeedlesmade when he and UFC CEO Lorena Fertitta sat down for an interview with The Wall Street Journal.

Among other things, the two discussed the UFC’s place in the sports world.

Is the UFC really going head to head with the NFL? White and Fertitta believe so… when you compare the two on a global basis, not confined to the sports community in the United States.

“We’re neck-and-neck with soccer,” said White. “Soccer isn’t huge here in the United States, but all over the world it is. The only other thing that could work is fighting.”

What a stupid douche.

UFC is nowhere near as big as the NFL in America and globally, and is nowhere near Football (Soccer).

Someone should fire Dana, his idiotic comments and outbursts is only hurting MMA.

lol

dana trolling

Of course he was exaggerating/bullshitting but what's more astonishing is that the legions of Dana's retarded step children who populate MMA boards actually believe these claims.

Outside of US, Canada, & nowadays Brazil to an extent the UFC is close to unknown in the rest of the world.

I assume that is his strategy here because that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard.

“We’re neck-and-neck with soccer,” said White. “Soccer isn’t huge here in the United States, but all over the world it is. The only other thing that could work is fighting.”

The rest of the world refuses the word "soccer". Instead everyone always used Football. In that case the UFC is really like soccer, just not like football.

They might have heard XFL instead of NFL.

I wonder how much they paid for this interview. Nobody could lie and talk so much shit like that without the reporter saying anything.

Also notice how they always put "MMA success" when they talk about UFC success and never even mention anything else about other orgs and put the brand on top of the athletes, and nobody talks about their glory, only the brand's.

"We're neck and neck with soccer"




That is brazen... perhaps he meant soccer in the US.
In the world, that is a total joke. The whole of MMA is like 1/100 compared to the size of football.

lol....what a clown, he dresses in a t-shirt, jeans and some vans for a televised interview by a respected news magazine. Does he honestly think anyone still takes him serious?

Bald Bozzo should be pulled up by his idiotic comments.

When will these so called journalists actually start acting like journalists and ask the hard questions/ not agree to everything or everything.

Major League Soccer > Ultimate Fighting Championship

I'm guessing that as viewership and interest goes down the more we'll hear this kind of rhetoric.

Sad thing is, zombies not only believe it but are trying to defend this stupid falacy they made. MMA fans today are unbelievable....

MMA fans today? MMA fans always.

MMA has the worst fan base in sports.

in regards to this quote; LOL. Never in a million years will MMA be bigger than the NFL. I don't care if NFL is just in america, Football is a bigger sport than MMA could ever aspire to be.
