Video: Jerry Millen is Back With Another Attack on Dana White and This Time He Brought Dana’s Psycho Mom For Back-Up

When Dana White’s mom released a “tell-all” book a few months back, we all figured that it was a result of sour grapes for not being cut a check when Dana started making stacks of cash.

Now we’re pretty sure we were right and that this crazy woman has some sort of vendetta against her son, considering she’s teamed up with one of Dana’s most bitter enemies, Jerry Millen for the scathing interview above. Millen posted the video on YouTube under the pseudonym “louisthompson90010,” but it’s clear that it’s him posing some of the questions. It’s sad really that he would travel on his own dime to interview this spiteful woman in an effort to make Dana look bad.

Millen’s motives become clear from the get go and you can see that through choppy editing and leading questions that he was able to make June White seem like an even more bitter estranged parent than she already did when she called Dana Rosemary’s Baby and claimed he had no soul.

Some highlights of the combined douchebaggery of JW and JM after the jump.

Millen’s motives become clear from the get go and you can see that through choppy editing and leading questions that he was able to make June White seem like an even more bitter estranged parent than she already did when she called Dana Rosemary’s Baby and claimed he had no soul.

Some highlights of the combined douchebaggery of JW and JM :

• June decided to start talking ill of her son when his grandmother died and he didn’t take care of her as allegedly promised and didn’t go to the funeral

• She believes her son takes steroids

• She accuses Dana of cheating on his wife, calls the marriage “a joke” and says he “puts Tiger Woods to Shame”

• She claims to “know for sure” that Dana is sleeping with plenty of the ring card girls including Amber Nicole and Rachelle Leah

• She says Dana slept with his sister-in-law in her house

• She alleges Dana got the worst black eye she’s ever seen and nearly lost his eye after his wife attacked him on their honeymoon

• Mr. Vendetta Millen claims to have first hand knowledge of the FTC investigation of the UFC because he was interviewed by them

• For whatever reason, Millen asks Dana’s mom if she thinks the UFC has a monopoly in MMA and *GASP* she does

• She claims she has never asked Dana for a cent and that she paid her own way to go to events when they were on good terms, which is odd since Dana has been known to foot the bill for airfare and hotels for random fans to go to shows

• She also claims that she didn’t write the book for money, she did it to make Dana check himself and hopefully become a better person. If this is true, wouldn’t a heartfelt letter to her son have been a more constructive option?

• She opines that maybe Dana needs a shrink to deal with his problems. Finding out he was switched at birth would better do the trick.

• At the end of the interview she actually invited Dana to come see her so they can talk. Seriously. It would make more sense that she was Jerry Millen’s mom.

• She alleges that her smear campaign against Dana “was tough” and that “anyone as a parent can certainly understand that.” Really? Because I’m a parent and I’m pretty sure I would never try to publicly slander and humiliate my kid, but that’s just me.

• She says she still loves him, but “would love to see him change” and “make things the way she wants them” and to have her “old Dana back”

• She tries to play the guilt card by saying that it’s unfair to Dana’s kids that she doesn’t get to see them. Like you could trust her not to fill their heads with bullshit like this.

Man. I’m shocked that a team of lawyers haven’t shown up at her door. That woman is crazy. Remind me to send my mom some flowers.

Phil Baroni: ‘Yeah, Koscheck’s Kind of Douchebag, But He’s A Douchebag Who’s Going to Beat GSP’

("Come on Josh, don’t be pissed at me. I said you’re ‘HALF A DICK,’ not a full on dick.")

Veteran UFC welterweight Phil Baroni stopped by The Bum Rush Radio Show this week and while he was here he gave his thoughts on this weekend’s heavily-anticipated welterweight title bout between his American Kickboxing Academy teammate Josh Koscheck and dominant champion Georges St-Pierre.

Baroni took issue with Ben’s assessment that St-Pierre will be able to take Koscheck down at will en-route to a late submission victory.

"I disagree — not just because we’re friends. Koscheck’s the better wrestler. It’s not gonna come down to striking at all. I don’t think Koscheck needs to land a big shot to win the fight. Koscheck’s a better wrestler. He has a much better pedigree. GSP has a double-leg tackle — that’s about it," Baroni explained. "He’s more of a jiu-jitsu guy and I don’t see him getting on top. Koscheck’s gonna have to control where the fight goes and beat him in a wrestling match. If he does that, he’s gonna win the fight. GSP is mentally weak. He’s a great athlete, he’s got a huge gas tank, he’s strong, he’s fast, but between his ears, there’s a little bit of softness. I think if comes down to a gut-check, Koscheck will take care of him."

Do you ever see or hear something and say, "Man, that has to be a joke," and then you find out to your surprise that it’s legit and still think it’s fake?

About a year ago, I stumbled upon this Saturday Night Live-esque video and archived it, knowing that it likely wouldn’t last long when the MMA messageboard jackals got a hold of it.

Anyway, the guy in the self-aggrandizing UFC audition tape above, JayT, is apparently gunning to be the next Joe Rogan or Ariel Helwani and is calling himself "Canada’s premiere mixed martial arts interviewer and host," despite never having interviewed a fighter or MMA personality.

Forrest Griffin is Kind of a Dick to Reporters

Forrest Griffin interviews make me feel good. Not because Forrest is a funny dude, but rather because they make me realize that not only was he a dick to me when I interviewed him for the first time last summer; he’s a dick to every reporter that interviews him.

Don’t believe me? 

Check out the recent clip above of Forrest telling an interviewer that his hair is terrible and calling him racist for assuming Griffin was referring to Alistair Overeem when he referenced Cro Cop giving up during a fight in which he got kneed in the groin repeatedly. The reporter was right. Overeem did foul Mirko during a DREAM bout, but Forrest assumed he thought our boy Cheick Kongo looked like "The Demolition Man" and he called him on it.

When I interviewed him after he spent four hours signing autographs at the Toronto MMA Expo, I assumed he was simply being ornery because of the long day he had.

Just before we began the interview, which I waited to conduct after a one-hour delay in which Griffin signed a few extra autographs, he tossed aside the Cage Potato t-shirt I gave him to a girl working the booth, told me he had no idea what CP was and then proceeded to "X" out the devil horns symbol on my shirt, informing me that I now had his autograph. Needless to say, I wasn’t overly keen on doing the interview after the way things got started. 

That seems to be Forrest’s MO: insult the reporter at the beginning of the Q&A session and make him feel uncomfortable for the whole interview. The end result is usually an awkward and strange exchange that ends with Griffin smirking and the reporter red-faced and wishing they hadn’t wasted their time talking to him.
