Dana White clowns Triple H in response to his claims that UFC needs to evolve and WWE doesn't

Photo

I didn't expect this in the slightest but at the UFC 135 pre-fight press conference today (Sept. 21) in Denver, someone actually asked the panel of fighters, including UFC President Dana White, how they felt about Triple H's recent comments that UFC needs to evolve while WWE does not.

After Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones gave a rambling and ridiculous answer, White chimed in with this gem:

"His father-in-law is just now letting him speak in public, he'll get better at it. He'll stop saying stupid sh*t soon."

Zing!!!

What makes this really great is that White and Vince McMahon have, by all accounts, a fairly solid relationship, enough so that they've conducted various meetings in the past few years to chit-chat on matters of business and what not.

Triple H's initial critique was passed off as poppycock simply because of the source but he did have some legitimate claims. White's response, however, is just downright comical.

Ugh, Dana White.

Ugh, Triple H. Put ’em both in the octagon and let ’em fight! That would get my money.

If we're going for freak show I'd rather see Penn/Machida II

That’s an awesome response.

I'd love to hear Jones' comment

His lack of experience in public speaking, coupled with his fake humility, makes the shit that comes out of his mouth a joy to behold.

Add in the PR experience and we get GSP? No thank you

I think Dana’s relationship with Vince has its ups and downs, but he’ll always owe Vince one for not nixing TUF airing after Raw on Spike TV in 2005.

I hope this turns into a series of back an forth zingers. Hopefully crearive helps HHH out (skinny fat ass)

The real issue here

are both parties ignorance and stubbornness. Basically a case of the pot calling the kettle black. You know things are bad when verbal jousts between two figureheads are more exciting than the actual product.
