Urijah Faber gets along with UFC president Dana White just fine, but they've had their moments.

"Dana White's awesome," Faber told FOX Sports. "He's an emotional guy, but I feel like he's a good guy. He's an emotional guy. He's like Donald Trump. He says whatever the hell he wants."

But after losing his featherweight title to Mike Brown at WEC 36 in 2008, Faber says White picked a pretty bad time to throw a low blow.

"Yea, there's been a time," said Faber. "I mean, we didn't not get along, but I had to, you know. I'm a guy who says what I want, as well. It was a time when he was having some sort of dispute with Jon Fitch and it was just after I lost a big thirteen-fight win streak. He was like, 'These fighters need to quit worrying about business.' Fitch wouldn't sign this agreement to let [UFC] use his likeness for the video games.

"So Dana was on this big rant. He was on with [Sacramento sports radio host] Carmichael Dave and he was asking Dana, 'Is Urijah coming back?' This and that, blah blah. 'Yea, but you know, all these guys need to worry about fighting, not about business.'"

Faber says White's comments were relayed to him by his own father.

"My dad told me about it and that pissed me off," said Faber. "I was on a thirteen-fight win streak. [The loss] had nothing to do with business. I got caught with a right. I texted [White] and said, 'Hey dude, way to kick a guy when he's down. I didn't even hear this. My dad heard it.' He said he didn't say anything, blah blah blah. Then he called my dad and apologized. He was actually really cool about it. He's a good dude, but you know, he's real."

On the subject of having gripes with management, Faber was asked how he was adjusting to the UFC's uniform deal with Reebok.

Faber owns an apparel brand called Torque and wore his own gear inside the Octagon for the last time against Frankie Edgar in May.

"It's rough for me because I'm one of the guys that has built a brand, but I'm OK with the look," said Faber. "It's not my style but it's not horrible. It's quality stuff. I would say that moving forward as a brand, I understand why the UFC would do something like that. As a business man, I understand that's their business and they can do they want. For me, I have to find a different way to get my brand out there."

FANPOST OF THE DAY

Today's Fanpost of the Day comes via radagast.

The next Big Thing......Sage Northcutt

He is 19yrs old, 6' 155 and he is 5-0. For the past year he has dominated guys in Legacy FC. Prior to that he was a karate champion. The kid is a stud. UFC just signed him last week and they are putting him straight into the fire at ufc 192 against 12-1 Francisco Trevino, whose only loss was a decision to Johnny Case. So this should be a good test and good match, Trevino is no scrub. ...
