That rebuttal by Kevin just shows how dumb he can be with his responses, at times. Imagine taking all things into consideration with that fight and the rankings and having that response.
He’ll move around his schedule to watch Oscar wills fight some journalist but acts like he doesn’t care about Francis Ngannou’s PFL debut. Hahahaha this is too funny
Francis wanted to leave & he did & the UFC carried on. Why should it matter whether Dana cares or watches Francis' PFL debut 32mnths later or not, unless u wanted drama but didn't get it. He'll watch what he wants (Oscar, boxing, etc) or must (UFC, etc), like the rest of us.
@@lulzywizard7576Yeah but time and again he does nothing, if he kicked up a fuss about the judging and forced some action, MAYBE then something would improve
How so? Matchmaking isn’t black and white, all things need to be considered to create an exciting match up and set up the future fights as well. The main reason Periera has been able to put on these exiting fights is because of the way he was fast tracked, which is an overall positive for the sport.

What the first journalist in this interview isn't understanding is that getting knocked out doesn't erase everything else you did in the fight prior to that moment.
@@mmafan87 absolutely 💯 agree with you, jiri is one of the least skilled champions, no defense at all, got dominated by a 43 years old Glover. Khalil is similar to jiri, just check out his record, got KOed by freaking Johnny walker. The whole division is trash tbh, Pereira has resuscitated this division, and created some excitement to this division.
I wonder if DWCS would be better all the way around if they just did once it once a month. Two more shows per year and we don't have to wait 9 months for the next episode.
Hes not totally wrong. His jon jones take is ridiculous, but if the media argument is khalil got KOd, how tf do they have jiri at num 1? He got KOd by alex twice. Hill got KOd and is 3rd. Rakic just got KOd by jiri but is 5th. Khalil fought as many rounds with alex in one fight than jiri/hill did in 3 fights combined. Btw krylov hasnt fought in almost 2 yrs, he shouldnt be ranked at all…
dana is right about the rankings 100% at the same time I hate when people say they were winning the fight until they lost. it's the outcome that matters. many fighters give up minutes and or rounds before winning fights.
good old 'he was winning on the scorecards' argument. except that round 4 was probably 10-8 and he wasn't actually down on the scorecards. new 'fixed' Dana's p4p rankings next week guys. jones #1, stipe #2, conor #3, rousey #4
yeah the problem is he got brutally finished after gassing in the 3rd and he got outstruck in rd1 against anthony smith, ko'd by johnny walker and arguably lost to Dustin Jacoby. He might've been a good stylistic matchup to win a couple rounds against pereira but it doesnt justify moving up past oezdemir who actually kod walker in rd 1 and finished guskov in his last 2
@@PoopythePlumber yeah exactly the media has no place ranking these fighters most of them don't know anything about the sport as evident by the first guy who sounds like he just polished off a bag of cheetos and a full week of playing world of warcraft saying "to be fair he did get knocked out though" yeah no shit did you not listen to a word dana just said khalil was winning almost every round before that happened sometimes i wonder if these guys even watch the fights it's actually pathetic
Krylov and Oezdemir are good points imo. And Jonny Walker beat Khalil. Should he move up too? Should we assume Walker would do better against Alex? I don't think rankings are based on how well we think everyone would match up against current champ..? And saying someone should move up bc they had great fight w champ feels reactive to me. I wonder if one's that say Khalil should move up always feel everyone that fights great against a champ and gets ko'd should move up? If not, why? Why for Khalil now, but none of those other times?
@@JohanLiebert1walker best khalil, cutelaba unranked guy best khalil, they did better than the champ, so now what ? Are they better than Alex is that how we should think, you guys are crazy if you judge a fighter rankings by winning rounds against a champ, when we saw him losing to bums
@@tylerdavis520but you also forget that Alex was sick in this fight , and had a bad camp, so also you can say Alex underperformed too , so how can you judge that ? Win or lose that’s the only criteria that has no variables. Are we judging a fighter now for winning rounds and not the actual fight ? Is that what we should look at ?
Dana wants guys to move up in the rankings for losing? He's got no top 10 wins how high you want to put him? 9:13 no we don't. Styles make fights. Being a good loser for 1 night doesn't prove you're better than anyone. How much are you gonna elevate guys off of losses? Rankings should be based on wins and resumes. Not losses. Reyes and Erceg got elevated off of a loss and look what happened to them 10:46 most them haven't even been given that opportunity. Who ranked above him has gotten KOed by Johnny Walker?
Dana is still a casual after all these years. Thinks a guy who just got KO'd should move up in the rankings ahead of guys who are on win streaks...just because he did ok in the first two rounds. Such casual logic.
Roundtree had 2 good rounds and fell apart in round 3 and got Destroyed and KO’d in round 4 , how does that mean he should move up in the rankings ? Because he exceeded expectations and didn’t get stopped earlier ?
Good point and true. The other side of the coin is when you compare that with Hill or Jiri vs Alex? They didn’t even make the end of the second round or even looked competitive against Alex so that could be the logic.
Dana White's Light Heavyweight Rankings after tomorrow's meeting: C. Alex Pereira 1. Khalil Rountree 2. Jamahal Hill 3. Anthony Smith 4. Dominick Reyes 5. Alonzo Menifield 6. Jan Blachowicz 7. Volkan Oezdemir 8. Magomed Ankalaev 9. Jiri Prochazka 10. Johnny Walker
the argument dana made on using alex position in the p4p ranking to determine khalil position isnt enough logical and doesnt really stand coz it could be poatans plan to loose first rounds to study the oppos movement and gas him out to go for the finish on the later rounds. so even tho khalil won first two rounds it doesnt really matter if he gets ko'd at the end. do i hold a point or am I trippin?
@@EricBarkewitz this is a defense. I wouldn’t mind it. Staying in PFL. Very interesting especially if he keeps defending. I’d love the argument, “is Tom or Ferreira better” seems very entertaining

@NotBobbyHill its probably why Dana isn't pushing this AI thing. Especially if he wants individual performances to play a part in the rankings.. I don't see AI being able to factor something like that in organically
It’s a simple concept actually. Example : In collage football if ranked #5 Georgia looses by a field goal in overtime to ranked #1 Texas. Georgia will not fall off ranking for losing by a field goal To #1 team
Im with White on this one with rankings. We might be waiting a while for the AI, media deciding obviously isn't correct, Fans will be bias and Straight statistics only, is hard cause different leagues. Each franchise has there own rankings unless they unify somehow??? Seems doable or A.I. can figure it out even with different leagues seems most likely over time.... thoughts
You can tell these guys watch the gurus videos, with Dana making comments like "I need to stop bitching and fix it" the guru just made a video about this like 2 days ago. The power of the guru is immense
I agree with Dana about not taking the young girl. But, if it was gonna be a no, regardless of what she did, why even have her there? Coulda given that opportunity to someone who actually had a chance.
@@PoopythePlumber he won two rounds against a sick Alex Periera cool, but his best win is Anthony Smith and the fight before that he fought 12-7 Chris Daukus lol
Dana. I am a software developer. If you give me the criteria for the rankings I can create a program that can't be biased, we would plug in the data every week, push a button and it'll spit out the rankings per division and a p4p. We could also settle the debate of greatest of all time. I just need criteria.

Lol. Dana sayin AI needs to do the rankings but it put Rountree even lower than he is now. That's pretty funny.
I’d put Ankalaev ahead of Jiri lol
What? It says jamahal hill has a win over Carlos ulberg they never even fought
@NotBobbyHill its probably why Dana isn't pushing this AI thing. Especially if he wants individual performances to play a part in the rankings.. I don't see AI being able to factor something like that in organically
Lol Perplexity
It’s a simple concept actually. Example : In collage football if ranked #5 Georgia looses by a field goal in overtime to ranked #1 Texas. Georgia will not fall off ranking for losing by a field goal
To #1 team
Yeah but nr5 Georgia got there spot by winning not losing
When he says there's nothing worse than dumb and lazy, he's right, I work with a guy who's both dumb and lazy.
No one gives a shit lol
Dana White "these judges are incompetent".....also Dana "Khalil was up on the scorecards when he got knocked out"
Im with White on this one with rankings. We might be waiting a while for the AI, media deciding obviously isn't correct, Fans will be bias and Straight statistics only, is hard cause different leagues. Each franchise has there own rankings unless they unify somehow??? Seems doable or A.I. can figure it out even with different leagues seems most likely over time.... thoughts
The MMA media sucks!
Nikita should be fighting for #1 contender
You can tell these guys watch the gurus videos, with Dana making comments like "I need to stop bitching and fix it" the guru just made a video about this like 2 days ago. The power of the guru is immense
Dana doesn’t give a fuck about guru lol
Dana is sooo right!!! Round tree should be at 2 to 5 easy.
Because he lost? He moves up in rankings? No..thats nuts.
@@EbNorthPerformed better against Alex then most in the top 5
@@TriWaZe sure but he then got beat up worse at the end.
@@EbNorth He still didn’t go down to punches on his chin. He gassed and got body shotted. Definitely think he shudda rose a few spots imo
Do more looking for a fight and add cerrone
Kevin Iole and dana have a great relatiosnshiop, and i bet dana like to spar with keving with these questions and rebuttles
Dana straight up admits that the rankings aren't based on results but who he liked better? 🤣
Dana is geeked up licking his lips nonstop 😂😂😂
I agree with Dana about not taking the young girl. But, if it was gonna be a no, regardless of what she did, why even have her there? Coulda given that opportunity to someone who actually had a chance.
He answered that exact question
I miss the old Dana White before he was eaten by this one dimensional shadow of his former self
Can we let AI decide the bonus and pay fighters more the bonus haven't change with the value of the money over the last decade
lol how in the hell does Khalil move up in the rankings and take the spot of guys that have won their last 3?
Because they’ve beat nobodies
@@PoopythePlumberKhalil has beat nobodies too
I got a crazy idea: try watching the video and listening to what the boss is saying about the exact topic you’re discussing
@@AnderDingusInc he almost beat the champ that’s more impressive than anything those two bums did
@@PoopythePlumber he won two rounds against a sick Alex Periera cool, but his best win is Anthony Smith and the fight before that he fought 12-7 Chris Daukus lol
Dana. I am a software developer. If you give me the criteria for the rankings I can create a program that can't be biased, we would plug in the data every week, push a button and it'll spit out the rankings per division and a p4p. We could also settle the debate of greatest of all time. I just need criteria.
what is dana talking about lol khalil lost via ko and still didnt go down in the rankings. Them keeping him there weighs everything out it shouldnt be an offense to anyone
Yeah but Rosas Jr is okay to be on the UFC
Hey Dana when will we see Islam vs khabib
Should of signed her Dana
5:32 🥺🤩
How’s Dana gonna react when these people ALSO don’t put Jon Jones at #1? 😂
15:23 👀
Dana's inconsistencies in this video: Jokes about illegally streaming BKFC and says that retirements should be final 👏
dana's slimy behaviors streaming illegally meanwhile suing his own fan base for doing the same thing... the hypocrisy...
retirement should be final
Except for his boyfriend Amanda
Dana white getting angry when asked about Ngannou 😂😂💀💀 imagine if Ngannou gets a KO this weekend lol
@@e46_ggg Then he”ll do another boxing match and get slept again.
@@MatthewBrodericksBeret and make 10× more money than he did in ufc, Dana is mad 💀🤣🤣
@@e46_ggg According to Francis hahaha, If he loses one more fight he won’t be getting paid anything so hopefully he stashed that somewhere
@@MatthewBrodericksBeret your deluded, this is according to alot of people not just Ngannou. He went and boxxed in Saudi. They pay big bucks you casual
@@MatthewBrodericksBeret he fought under Riyadh season, you casual
24:14 Good to see he's still butthurt when the Ngannou questions come
dana wants to control the rankings so Jon Jones can be No1 pound to pound...
As if there aren’t layup fights in the UFC. Some of the unranked fighters in the UFC are absolutely garbage
Khalil should move up. WHY TF IS JIRI 1? HOW TF IS HILL 3? ABSOLUTE. TRASH. LHW RANKINGS.
put ur phone on silent lil bro
so this girl was too young at 20 to be signed but raul rosas jr wasn't too young at 17?she is literally a month older than raul,wtf,raul was in high school and needed his parents permission to sign the contract, what are you talking about dude?at least this girl is entertaining and exciting to watch,all rosas did was grapple in his dwcs fight and he just laid on his last opponent, this is bullshit!
