Roy Nelson talked to MMA Manifesto and one of the subjects that came up was Dana White's negative comments towards Nelson.
MM: Dana White has been quite public with his criticism of you. Would it be safe to say that he isn't a fan of your's?
RN: Dana sometimes gets in his moods. Apparently on Saturday night [TUF 10 Finale] I did actually pretty well because I did get knockout of the night so I must have impressed him and Lorenzo [Fertitta] to a certain degree.
MM: Are you worried about Dana not liking you? He's the most powerful guy in the business so you have to make sure to play nice with him.
RN: I think the biggest thing about playing nice with Dana is as long as I go out there and fight and put on a show. My biggest thing is as long as I impress the fans because they are the ones that pay the bills. That's first and foremost - they're the ones that pay Dana and then Dana pays me so if they stop paying then of course I could see how Dana would get mad. But, for the most part I'm always entertaining. I've always impressed in all my fights that I've ever fought pro.
Roy is definitely right about putting on a good show to please fans will satisfy the boss man.
WKR will be really interested to see who Nelson will fight in the UFC.
