Dana White wants Jon Jones stay at 205 pounds
"Jon Jones is a physical specimen. The guy is huge at 205 pounds.... He can make 205. Once he cleans out a division and [expletive] starts getting a little old and stale, then maybe he makes that move to heavyweight. He’s 24 years old, and as he gets older, it’s going to be harder to cut that weight. It’s going to be harder to stay as lean as he is. If I was him, and I’m not his coach or advisor or anything, I’d wait until that naturally happens....You move up to heavyweight, and you've got Junior Dos Santos up there. Dude's got bombs in his hands. ... You've got some big serious dudes at heavyweights. It's a big jump. It's not going to be that fun at heavyweight."

Left the company, went to the UFC and became UFC Heavyweight Champion of the world. Their success was on my blood, sweat and tears. Proud? Damn right I'm proud."

Dana White on the time of Dos Santos vs. Overeem
White : "I was impressed by Overeem – I’ve been talking about him a lot and not in a positive way, and now I’m eating crow. Without a doubt, he’s one of the top three heavyweights in the world. Junior dos Santos could fight Alistair Overeem, hopefully in the summer. dos Santos is ready, but Overeem wants to take a break. This is a fight that will be exciting."
Junior Dos Santos talking on Overeem
"Brock seemed a little bit anxious to throw punches and kicks. That surprised me, because I thought he should have taken Alistair down and kept the fight on the ground.
It's going to be really, really good for the fans. Because Overeem's a striker and I'm a striker, it's going to be a stand-up battle. He's pretty good at using his kicks, his knees, his punches, but I believe so much in my boxing."
Brock Lesnar on Cain vs JDS fight
Brock was on FOX TV as the guest fight analyst with Dana White. He said these about the fight: "I’ll tell ya, this heavyweight belt cannot stay in one man’s hands for very long. My hat’s off to Junior dos Santos, but that’s the truth. All it takes is the right punch at the right time and it’s a matter of a minute and four seconds. I was very surprised that Cain was so apprehensive in this fight. To me, it looked like he was trying to feel it out a little bit and I thought, ‘This guy should be pressuring him. He needs to be pressuring him.' Maybe it was a confidence thing. Maybe Cain wanted to come in and feel this thing out, but as it was shown, that was the wrong decision. He has a track record here too. Junior dos Santos is a knockout artist, okay? And I’ll be watching this and analyzing this, but I absolutely thought Cain should have pushed the fight and closed the distance and utilize what got him to the big event: His wrestling."
