After Fedor Emelianenko lost on Saturday night’s Strikeforce card, UFC President Dana White went wild on Twitter, where he ripped Fedor’s management at M-1 Global for, in White’s view, tarnishing Fedor’s legacy by keeping him away from fighting in the sport’s premier promotion.
White’s tweets included comments like, “Fedor has been fighting bums for years!” and “Last nights fight was a set up for Fedor to win and he got his face smashed!” Many of the tweets included profane insults about Fedor’s managers and fans, some of whom were using Twitter to argue with White about Fedor’s legacy.
But while White was animated and many of his Twitter correspondents were, too, Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker said he didn’t get worked up about any of it.
