Dude, now you’re just showing off.

That was super quick. And no, I’m not talking about what your girlfriend says to you between the sheets. I’m talking about Cro Cop Filipovic’s stay in the UFC. MMAFanhouse has the dirt:

UFC President Dana White said this week that he and Cro Cop agreed to an unprecedented verbal deal, and that White had never in the nine years he’s been running the UFC allowed a fighter to step into the Octagon without a written contract in place. After UFC 99, White said he felt that Cro Cop had betrayed him.

One might think Dana was half-joking until he started in with his usual spicy language. Things like…

– “Isn’t that a dirty [expletive] thing to do?”
– “He [expletived] me. The first time in the history of the company I do one over the phone. He promised me a three-fight deal and he [expletived] me.”
– “He talked about honor and all this other [expletive] and he [expletived] me.”
– “He fed me this bull [expletive] about wanting to take a run for the title, and what I think he did was, he went out and did this. He turned down every other [expletive] fighter I offered him, because I needed him to fight Cain. He didn’t just poke Al-Turk; he poked me, too.”

But Dana, what do you really think about it? In related news about getting poked, Mostapha Al-Turk is going to appeal his loss to Cro Cop at UFC 99 because of the illegal eye poke that led to Cro Cop doing him in. Since the fight was in Germany, this one is likely going to be an uphill battle.
