Dana White hadn't said a lot about UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture's deal with Spike TV to work on Bellator's reality show so far this week. You know Dana couldn't hold back forever though, and he finally let loose at the UFC 156 post-fight media scrum. As expected, Dana was pretty harsh when it came to The Natural (via Ariel Helwani's twitter):

Dana: "The only time Randy Couture is ever a man is when he stepped foot in that cage." — Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) February 3, 2013

Dana telling more about how it ended with Randy. He says RC lied to him via text about the deal before Xmas and hasn't talked to him since. — Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) February 3, 2013

Couture's deal with Spike ended up coming an inopportune time for his son Ryan, who was brought over from Strikeforce to the UFC recently when SF was closed down. According to Dana, he texted Ryan Couture earlier this week and said that if he wanted out of his contract to go to Bellator, Dana would be okay with that. Ryan said it was his dream to fight in the UFC though, and he wanted to stay. Dana says he responded with "this is your house and I'm honored you said that". He was happy that Ryan was staying and wants him to feel welcome, but he also said that his father won't be welcome to corner him, or even buy a ticket to shows.

Couture retired after a UFC 129 loss to Lyoto Machida, and has had contentious contract issues with the UFC in the past. They always kissed and made up though, so it's pretty clear that Dana sees Couture's deal with the competition as a slap in the face. It'll be interesting to see if Couture responds to this or takes the high road, but you can be sure that White isn't done talking about the issue just yet.
