Fedor is too strong for Dana White’s fighters. That’s the reason Dana does not want Fedor. It’ll be a shame for UFC if Fedor destroy all his UFC oponents.
Why would that be a shame? That would only further strengthen the UFC, more high quality, exciting fights, and strong challengers. Win-win. He doesn’t want Fedor because the guy wants too much money, pretty cut and dry.
