UFC Chief, Dana White, Backs Off Threat To Ban Fighters, Still Loathes EA

Kotaku has the scoop.

Quote:


	"White revealed that he is backing off his earlier threats to ban any fighter who appears in EA's game to be a part of UFC. "Nah, some people have crossed over," he told Kotaku, "But believe me this is still going to continue to be a battle. ...they're the me-toos. The UFC game is the original game."

Platform: Xbox 360 / PS3

More like he was dealing with the wrong people at the wrong time, unfortunately.

I just think him making things so personal is unprofessional. EA is a business who felt that a MMA game wasn't worth it before, and now they feel differently. That happens all the time in business.

Maybe it was even his personality that turned them off.
