Dana hates on the Mazz
Fightlinker.com » Fightlinker - MMA, UFC, and other funny fight crap — Typically, Dana White sticks to the whole “Ref’s job is the hardest, respect respect respect” shtick, even when he’s in Buttfuck Nowhere and Buttfuck McGee ends up reffing half the fights. But last night he took a shot at Steve Mazzagatti for letting the Griffin / Evans fight go too long: UFC president Dana White was upset after the match as Mazzagatti, saying he thought the stoppage was late, but was more upset over an earlier stoppage in which Cheick Kongo was bludgeoning Mostapha Al-Turk. “He’s a nice guy, but he’s not a referee,” said White.

Bad Situations: An MMAmania.com interview exclusive with Karo ‘The Heat’ Parisyan
UFC blog for UFC news, results, videos, rumors, fights, pics and tickets -- MMAmania.com — Back in 2006, Karo Parisyan was on a collision course with a welterweight title shot. “The Heat” was riding a five-fight win streak, including wins over Matt Serra, Nick Diaz and Chris Lytle. He was practically a shoe-in. But first, the UFC said he’d have to get past a young up-and-coming fighter named Diego Sanchez. One tooth later, “Nightmare” earned the unanimous decision victory, leaving Parisyan back at square one. More determined than ever to prove he deserved a title shot, “The Heat” returned to action, wracking up three more wins in the process in the ever-expanding and ever-crowded welterweight division. ...
