NotImpressedByYourScreenName -When did he say he would get cut if he didnt agree? He said if Ryan wanted to, they'd release him from his contract to go be in Bellator with his father. According to Ryan, he didnt even try and argue it so no one has any idea whether he would have been released if he had asked DFW if his father could corner him.GriffinQ -Couture missed one fox show so stop trying to make out he left them in the lurch. And yea, the UFC made Randy....the UFC that was getting a few hundred in the crowd and couldn't get on tv when Randy stuck with them. The UFC didn't do randy any favors - they made a tonne of money off him so he doesn't owe them shit.NotImpressedByYourScreenName -I wouldn't bail on prior commitments with a job while entertaining other offers. I would still uphold my contract and THEN enter into the negotiating period. Why sign a contract if you have no intention of seeing it through every time a better offer comes around?GriffinQ -He had a 30 day notice period which he used, same as the UFC / Fox woulda done. Not to mention he gave Zuffa the option to match his Bellator offer and they told him to whistle.NotImpressedByYourScreenName -Randy was already under contract with Fox and the UFC actually... And lying to your current employer and screening their calls is considered a cunt move as well.GriffinQ -You just don't get it...NotImpressedByYourScreenName -Please tell me you're joking? How is he making him choose between his career and his father? He offered to release him to pursue his career with his father, or to pursue it in the UFC knowing that his father only wouldn't be able to attend his fights. Either way, Ryan has a career somewhere. Maybe Randy should have considered his sons career before he signed up to work for a competing company...?dannyapodaca - Its his decision and I understand him wanting to fight in the ufc. But as a father I would hope my son would have told Dana to go fuck himself.This exactly. And they can't match an offer if Randy doesn't make them aware of the terms of an offer, which both sides said he didn't do. Anddddd looking for a new job while still employed somewhere else is not the argument, dumbass. It's not showing up for work while you still work somewhere , and taking another job at the same time. I would not start working somewhere else until I finished my prior commitment, because that's fucking retarded. He had ONE more Fox show to show up for, a gig that he REQUESTED, and he didnt show up without even informing his employers that he wouldn't be working for them anymore. Last I checked, that's not how most people go about maintaining their reputation in the business world

NotImpressedByYourScreenName -Not if it meant that my son's dream would get fucked up. Especially if I already had a great job, like Randy did.Pessimist_Pete - As a father, I never would have put my son in such an awkward position.What, by taking a job?? GTFO - I bet you'd quit your job in a heartbeat if you were offered 5% more elsewhere
