Dana White and fighters post fight press conference...

While Saturday’s much-hyped UFC 112 event was coming to its anticlimactic ending, the night’s real drama was going on Octagon-side and continued during the post-fight press conference.

UFC president Dana White was so disgusted with middleweight champion Anderson Silva’s circus act that he handed the belt to Ed Soares, “The Spider’s” manager, in the 4thRound and told him to wrap the gold around Silva’s waist because White wasn’t going to do it.

The brash promoter immediately stormed off backstage, leaving well before it was announced Silva had earned a unanimous decision victory over Demian Maia.

White’s anger only intensified as the night grew longer. He stated at the presser that he was “disgusted” with Silva’s antics and repeatedly apologized for the “embarrassing” show his organization put on in their Middle East debut.

“I don’t think I’ve ever been more embarrassed in the 10 years I’ve been in this business,” White said. “It was the first time I have ever walked out on a main event.”

It was the Brazilian’s 12th consecutive win and bumped his record to a dominant 26-4. It was his seventh straight 185-pound title defense, however his last three have left a lot to be desired

Yeah i heard that too Jon i didnt watch it either so didnt get to see any of it. I saw the highlights on a sportshow today and god Anderson is such a douchebag. Dana said in the interview that we may see the first title fight on a preliminary card lmao. Hes right though who wants to pay to see this piece of garbage?

HAHA. That would be a smack in the face to Silva if a title fight was a prelim... but seriously. Nobody's gonna pay for that crap unless he has some other serious competition like Lesnar vs. Carwin on the same card because everyone wants to see and will pay for that one!

I still say there is something going on behind the scenes. Contract negotiations or something.

dana is a funny dude when he gets razzed up and pissed off
