Jokes aside somethin' just doesn't add up here.

Why would a fighter be (clearly what the UFC wants as commentators) fired as a commentator
other then a hape case, harassment case or hacist case or grossly stepping out of line?

My spidey sense says this is much more complicated then "creative" differences.

My bet is that Hardy was a habitual line stepper.

Well when Jimmy Smith came in it was for one year, then they said thanks, you did a great job, but we're looking to use fighters in the booth more often… (Jimmy words from the other day, he had a trial with WWE I guess) and I think hardy is one of the longest they have had in the booth now. So something happened.

My inside source says the same thing. He's pissed off people a lot and this time they went to HR, HR had enough and let him go.

My inside source tells me he was shit canned for calling Joe Rogan "princess"

That is not Joe's preferred pronoun.

Leigh @Leigh text the outlaw and offer him a job here. He can start out on cageside but eventually we can even let him make threads live on off topic.

He still works indirectly for the UFC under Cage Warriors so I doubt we will get a response from him. This exposes the fuck out of her though, she seems like a little shitstarter, using Herb Deans position to get a job.

No respect whatsoever for that statement, she should have kept quiet and kept farming sympathy. This post showcases her actual personality and makes her look like a complete shit disturbing bitch, it is now obvious that it wasn't just Dan Hardy that made an off colour remark, but that Herbs wife is only there to make dollars and drama, using all her "get me viral" points in this post.

Hope she'll be the one looking for a new job this summer.

Btw: I called it too, although i had to guess twice ;).

Goddammit I called it somewhere, not this thread I guess, I remember saying I wonder if he used the words "I don't give a fuck if herb Dean is your husband or not!"

Maybe it was on the UG

So it has begun. Dan must fight herb Dean for the rights to his wife's chastity. Kickboxer style with glass wraps.


This is the way

She definitely gets "around" and loves the BBC...

My old post from another thread:

"So now it's not even aggressive behaviour or sexual allegations, but simply just a disagreement, in this case Herbs wife who started arguing with Dan, because Dan actually has balls and eyes which made him observe and call out Herbs piss poor performance. This actually got the man fired, having a disagreement with a female who is not even an employee or even married to an employee (Herb works for the athletic commision) will get you fired within WME IMG. Pretty radical times."

Seems pretty acurate for what occured except she was obviously employed. One solution boycut WME IMG to change this trend or boycut Herb.

And btw how high a position does a guy have to have on the broadcasting team to not get fired after a verbal argument/confrontation with a female employee, would a Joe Rogan or DC get fired for making the same statement?

Dan Hardy wasn't high up in the social hiarachy on the broadcasting team, which is what leads me to this question.
