(Wait, you guys FIGHT in this thing?)
Earlier this week, Dana White mentioned that his promotion was in talks to add Japanese featherweight Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto to the mix of the UFC’s top notch 145-pound class.
Well, according to the UFC president, the popular 33-year-old Japanese fighter has come to terms with the Zuffa-owned organization.
White tweeted the news last night.

Ariel Helwani is in Montreal, Quebec Canada covering the UFC 124: St. Pierre Vs. Koscheck. The 2010 Fighter’s Only MMA Journalist of the Year was able to snag Dana White for an in depth interview and argue with him a bit over who the most famous Canadian athlete really is. Helwani is a native of Canada and held his own debating with White that Wayne Gretzky may have more fame than GSP, but White maintains, Georges St. Pierre is known everywhere, especially noting his popularity due to the internet (which Dana so loathes as a media outlet).
Helwani also asks White about his relationship with Josh Koscheck after six weeks of filming for TUF 12. White is honest that their relationship has improved but reiterates that Koscheck is still a dick. Helwani also informs Dana White that Bellator will not allow Jonathon Brookins to fight for UFC due to the lawsuit and also tells him he’s heard about big rumors over an announcement soon for UFC in Brazil. White is surprised by both questions, saying he’s ready for a legal battle with Bellator and as for the Brazil rumors…he doesn’t know. Hmph….
Watch the full interview below:

("Just a backpack full of shit I killed. No big deal." PicProps: Sherdog)
In the immediate aftermath of Brock Lesnar’s soul-shattering beatdown at the hands of Cain Velasquez at UFC 121, Dana White went on TV and wagered that Lesnar might call off much of his previously scheduled vacation time in favor of getting back in the cage. That’s just the kind of no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners SOB that Brock Lesnar is, Our Fearless Leader told us, sounding certain the big guy would want to wash the taste of defeat out of his mouth as soon as possible.
Instead … cue the crickets … because aside from some pics of him posing alongside a freshly smote whitetail, we haven’t heard boo from Brock since then. What with the UFC’s 2011 cards already filling up into March and the heavyweight division devolving into chaos around our very ears, our pals at MMA Fighting.com got a little antsy and decided to start asking the tough questions. Turns out Big DW hasn’t heard from Lesnar lately.

(The Octagon will touch down for the first time in Toronto in April.)
During a press conference in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre today, UFC president Dana White announced that the promotion will make it’s first foray into Ontario when it hosts UFC 131 in the city on April 30 at the Rogers Centre.
Although no match-ups were revealed for the spring card, but White may have thrown out a clue about one possible participant of the event during the presser when he reiterated his statement that UFC welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre is the most popular athlete to come out of Canada.
White also announced that the city will also be treated to a UFC Fan Expo that weekend and that the event will be held at the Direct Energy Centre. CagePotato.com is in the process of planning a booth for the show to try to eclipse the popularity our extremely popular Boston UFC Fan Expo spot.

There are a few things that most people think they’re very good at, regardless of whether they really are. Driving is one of those things. So is sex. Less titillating, but still important, is calculating probability.
Take the phenomenon known as confirmation bias, for instance. Simply put, it states that people are more likely to put undue weight on information that supports their existing beliefs than on information that refutes them. This seems especially relevant in light of the recent dust-up between MMA trainer Greg Jackson and UFC president Dana White, as well as the ensuing comment storm over it on the internet.
According to White, Jackson encourages a boring, overly conservative approach in his fighters, and this is a consistent pattern. According to Jackson, the fact that his fighters have taken home 12 bonus awards in 22 events in 2010 (and for the record, when Jackson said ‘half your bonuses went to my guys,’ we can assume that what he meant is they won a bonus half the time, not half of all bonuses handed out – he’s too smart to be that bad at math) proves that White’s assessment is completely unfounded.
So who’s right? As far as I can tell, your answer depends on what you think of the issue before you ever hear the evidence.
