UFC
vs Bodog: Dana White and Calvin Ayre Duke it Out
In a recent interview,
UFC President Dana White referred to Bodog Fight
creator Calvin Ayre as “that criminal.” He wouldn’t
mention Ayre by name and likened Ayre to the lead
characater in the movie Brewster’s Millions. Dana
said he’s trying to lose as much money as he can in
48 hours. Funny stuff.
In response Ayre
fought back by extending a once-in-a-lifetime offer
to his mixed martial arts rival.
With July 14th’s Bodog Fight: Eddie Alvarez vs. Matt
Lee marking Ayre’s first event on U.S. soil, an
exclusive invite has been sent out to White.
“Sources tell me Dana’s a big Bodog Fight fan,” said
Ayre. “He must be. He can’t stop talking about us.
Personally, I love it when he keeps mentioning my
organization in the media. He doesn’t seem to
realize that each time he does, he only makes me
more money, which is why I want to repay him by
allowing him to experience the luxurious lifestyle I
am fortunate to enjoy for 48 hours.”
“Since, regrettably, I am unable to attend the
upcoming Bodog Fight event in New Jersey, I will
offer to send my private jet - complete with an
assortment of beautiful Bodog Girls - to pick up Mr.
White, wherever he may be. I will then fly him to
the east coast where he will enjoy a front row seat
to our next event, followed by a VIP evening
including a comfortable five-star overnight stay in
a nearby Atlantic City hotel. After hitting the
poker tables, Mr. White can retire to his lavish
suite, sip the finest champagne and relax in the
knowledge that all amenities and services are
complimentary as my way of saying ‘thank-you’ for
all the money he keeps making me.”
White has not yet
accepted the offer.
