when he was here I was defending him from the fans yeah I've never had a problem with Demetrius Johnson who who's defended Demetrius Johnson more than me Dana White is now acting like he's been the DJ's biggest fan all along yeah you heard that right remember when DJ was smashing records defending his belt 11 times and making history in the UFC flyweight division Dana was nowhere to be found when it came to giving him his props in fact the way Dana treated him back then was straight up disrespectful he didn't want pay-per-view he wanted upfront money no pay-per-view he wasn't very confident in his abilities to sell pay-per-views he has the lowest selling pay-per-view in the history of the UFC in the modern era you can't be in a position where you're like I want $2 million you I don't care what you make the next day I got a phone call from Dana White oh really Dan White Dana White never calls me when I was in UFC he called me he goes you dumbass you just ruined this whole thing we're trying to set up for you blah blah blah I was like Dan even tried to push DJ into fights that didn't make sense criticized him for not being a pay-per-view star fast forward to now and Dana's claiming he's been defending DJ from the fans really Dana [Music]
