The news that the UFC became part of the list of ten most valuable brands in the sporting world did not please Wanderlei Silva. The Brazilian, still looking to clash with the organization, harshly criticized the company's president, Dana White, who he again accused of exploiting athletes in order to get rich.
In your account at Instagram, Wand questioned the values published by “Forbes” magazine, which considers that the Ultimate brand has an estimated value of US$ 1,65 billion. "Billion? And for the fighters, $5? You should be ashamed of exploiting athletes. It's a shame to see athletes asking for money on the internet to take the trainer to a fight. A great injustice, they are enriching themselves at the expense of the athletes’ misery”, said the former PRIDE champion.
The criticism directed at White was even heavier. “This guy is the biggest coward who ever lived. He has never been in a ring and uses his position to talk rudely, badmouthing athletes. He's a soft ass who's never been slapped in the face. Before I couldn't speak, but now I speak. If you want to talk to me face to face, you know where to find me, at Wand Team, next week from 17pm”, he continued.
