Mason: Have you ever considered having a legends type fight on a card, such as Randy vs. Bas Rutten?
Dana White: We always want to put on the fights the fans want to see. I would love to bring Bas back.

rickrock: Would you like to see Wanderlei Silva back in the octagon? Has there been any steps taken to try and sign him?
Dana White: I would love to have Silva in the UFC, it’s always my goal to get the best fighters in the world to fight for us. Hopefully we will see that fight in 2007.

Poundem: Dana, were do you see the UFC in 5 years from now?
Dana White: Poundem, I see us GLOBAL.

tootall2: Do you intend to keep bringing the better - fighters from other organizations, or is there a plan to absorb other organizations, such as Pride - and thanks for bringing excitement back to professional fighting.
Dana White: Totall, it’s my goal to acquire all the best fighters in the world and if things go my way, I will have them all by the end of year.

Poundem: What is your plan for Fedor, or do you have one? Would you like to get him in the UFC?
Dana White: Poundem, I want Fedor and everyone else in the UFC.

DrWu: If you could change one thing about the rules of fighting in the octagon, what would it be and why?
Dana White: I would add knees to the head.

dnkyntz: Could you talk about the rumors regarding Zuffa acquiring Pride?
Dana White: Obviously we are out there acquiring other MMA companies right now and if Pride is for sale, I’m interested.

Raiderbeast:Before leaving tonight, can you tell us if another big Pride fighter will show up in the UFC anytime soon?

I think he can do it, he got quinton and cro cop already and putting lotta hype behind their fights and a ppv for their debut. Told ya'll that Dana White does whats best for the fans, its why ufc is the best mma organization in the world.

I'm not.

I've always thought that White and Zuffa would welcome knees if it wasn't for America's governing rules against them.

You're hatred for UFC has clouded you brain. You act like it was all Dana's fault for Silva not fighting Chuck when Pride took part in not making it happen. And I guess Crocop isn't one of Pride's top fighters, huh?

You didn't hear?

Once Cro Cop signed with the UFC, all of his accomplishments in K-1 and Pride went out the window.

As for the Silva fight, how come I never hear any blame laid at the feet of Sakakibara? He played the biggest role of that super fight falling through, why else would White promote another fighter and org in the middle of one of his' companies ppvs?

Some of you *******s need to use your damn heads.

How many fights did he sign for?? If it's more than 1, no mirko is not one of prides top fighters, he's UFC's TOP fighter...
