Dana White CHASES Forrest Griffin - Tells Him To Get Back Into The Octagon
Спорт
UFC 148
"He drives me crazy,” White said of Griffin. “It’s like professional suic*de, the things he does.”
Once Griffin got back in the cage, he ripped the microphone from commentator Joe Rogan’s hand and began asking Ortiz questions about the fight and his legacy.
“That was (expletive),” Ortiz said. “Come on, dude.”
The bout marked the end of Ortiz’s Hall of Fame career that spanned 15 years and 27 fights in the UFC. Ortiz not only felt robbed of a victory in a bout where he knocked Griffin down in both the second and third rounds, but also of a moment in his final post-fight octagon interview.
“I fought with my soul and that’s it,” Ortiz said. “I went out and I thought I won. I thought the fight was over. Forrest thought the fight was over. The fans thought the fight was over. It’s just the judges didn’t see it that way.”
Griffin eventually arrived to speak to the media, but he added little clarity to the strange series of events that overshadowed his Fight of the Night performance against Ortiz.
Griffin apologized profusely when he heard how upset Ortiz was with the display. He went on to say sorry twice more unprompted. But he still shared no definitive explanation for his actions.
“I wasn’t super-pleased with my performance,” Griffin said. “I talked to a lot of people and the emphasis was on finishing, etc., etc. I felt like I had an opportunity in a very close fight to finish it in the last minute and I didn’t close that door.”
As infamous as Griffin’s UFC 101 exit dash three years ago in Philadelphia has become, it made slightly more sense than Saturday’s. Anderson Silva, moving up from middleweight to light heavyweight for the bout, embarrassed Griffin in the UFC 101 co-main event.
Silva tagged the former champion multiple times before knocking him out with a jab midway through the first round while moving backwards. Griffin wanting to get away was understandable."
But Griffin out-landed Ortiz by nearly 40 strikes Saturday. The majority of media scores had Griffin winning the bout.
There was no reason to not stick around to hear a decision that, at worst, could have gone either way.
“I honestly wasn’t thinking,” Griffin said.
White and Ortiz remained as dumbfounded as everyone else. White could only hope Griffin learned his lesson after making the same mistake twice.
White detailed the message he hoped he got across to Griffin.
“If you’re bummed out, do it in the back (later),” White said. “If you’re looking for Joe Rogan’s (expletive) job, it isn’t going to happen. That’s Joe’s job. Leave the microphone alone until Joe comes over and talks to you. I love Forrest Griffin. He’s a great guy, but he gets a little kooky sometimes.”

After the fight between Tito Ortiz and Forrest Griffin at UFC 148, Griffin unexpectedly left the Octagon before the decision was announced, prompting UFC President Dana White to chase after him and send him back. Upon returning, Griffin conducted an unconventional interview with Ortiz, taking over the post-fight duties typically handled by commentators. According to carlos9658, this comment is pointless. However, they did thank me for it.

Who the hell does Dana think he is? He’s not Griffin’s father. Forrest is a full-grown man and can do what hell he want’s. Last thing he needs, win or lose, is to scolded like a child. I swear this guy get’s hard in the mirror thinking to himself “I just scolded a professional fighter! I’m such a tough guy.” Why do you guys think he let this be filmed if he is not trying to show off that he’s the dominant one? You only sign the check-book, Dana. That’s why griffin isn’t smacking you out of his sight right now.
