Brief

Chrisman highlights identical wording — "Ok. Let's find out." — used by Dana White and MJ to cast themselves as underestimated. He quotes David Senra’s 2026-05-11 thread alleging a lunch in which a man boasted of wealth, claimed he "built the UFC," threatened to "build another one," and preceded a move from Spike TV to Fox, criticizing Phil Duman.

Nothing pisses off Dana White more than (1) trying to take credit for UFC’s success and (2) changing your name to sound French even though you’re from Jersey:

“We go to this lunch and we got to listen to how fucking rich he is for the first 20 minutes.

And then he tells us that he built the UFC and if we don't like the offer he's making he'll just build another one.

That's literally what he said.

And we left that meeting I was like "He built the UFC huh?”

Okay Phil Duman. We'll see.

So we end up leaving Spike TV and going to Fox (for an even bigger deal).

Everything happens for a reason.

That guy ended up being one of the biggest brand killers of all time.”
