SEATTLE – There were differing viewpoints on the merit of UFC on FOX 8′s co-main event, though among those within the promotion, the most forceful opinion came afterward from UFC President Dana White. Following the FOX-televised fight, which took place Saturday night at Seattle’s KeyArena, White specifically took aim Jake Ellenberger ‘s (29-7 MMA, 8-3 UFC) performance at the post-event press conference. But Rory MacDonald (15-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) didn’t escape notice, either. “When you get these fights where guys talk s–t, those fights always suck,” White said of the bout. “I think that for Ellenberger to go out and say [MacDonald] doesn’t deserve to be in the top-10 and then not go out and try to prove that he doesn’t belong in the top-10…Ellenberger literally did nothing
