Randy came out of that experience better than most. He lives pretty comfortably being a gym owner and actor. Most guys from that life end up on skid row. Congratulations Randy!

Randy is an absolute legend. Very unique, well spoken, nice person, tough as nails

still a gentleman and as professional as it comes. A true Legend for the sport!

Randy coached on 3 of the first 4 seasons of TUF Randy had an entire PPV event dedicated to him (Ultimate Couture) Randy was given a color commentary position while still being an active fighter Randy was inducted into the UFC hall of fame From 2001 - 2008, 13 of his 14 fights were title fights. Randy was given a Heavyweight title shot after coming off a loss at Light heavyweight and retiring. The UFC was absolutely pushing Randy.

Couture coached on 2 of the first 4 seasons of TUF. Seasons 1 and 4.

I got to meet Randy at the Denver Airport last year. First time I've ever been star struck. They say "never meet your heroes". I disagree. He was so nice it was ridiculous. He let me get a picture with him and I got to shake his hand. Seemed very down to earth.

He is hall of famer that wanted protect next generation like past greats❤

It was a great honor watching you fight, with that b n said, the company was'nt even making money back then !!!

Dana even said on the Liddel DVD he set up the chuck vs Randy fight because he thought Randy would lose.

Dana's an asshole, but he's made that business. He's hustled his way to the top. I don't know if anyone else could have made the UFC as successful. Dude's driven and he'll horse fuck anybody who gets in his way or isn't on his team.

“UFC needs to pay more” Okay. It’s a publicly traded company with huge overhead. “They made a shit ton of profit” Yeah. They’re legally obligated under threat of lawsuit to provide maximum returns to shareholders. “Fighters put their lives on the line” They would for any promotion and did before the UFC. Would it be better if UFC was a not-for-profit? That would be amazing. Then, what are now profits would go to the fighters. How good would these fighters be if they all had enough money to afford the best possible camps and support? Would we have 5 more Islams? 5 more O’Malley’s? Volks? 🤷‍♂️ Be mad at life, fate and history or go build what you wish existed.

I don't know, a hungry-fighter is more dangerous than a full-fighter. But then again, coaching and the supply network is the reason the sport has evolved over the years, so you're probably right about the fighters being better if there was more money in it for the fighters.

Dana white and the fertittas made this guy famous without them the ufc wouldn’t be where it was and where it is quit crying you came to early for a sport that at the beginning lost them money and they gambled on it to work out

The other way around you mean. The only thing Dana White does is rip off the fighters.

He's so right. Contracts still shit, UFC raking in billions. Fighters getting fuckall by comparison. Anyone with superstar potential jumps over to boxing to actually get a payday. Nothing's changed. True, MMA is boring by comparison with boxing, but doesn't mean this Dana bozo should devalue the athletes so badly
