With new Fox deal, UFC President Dana White ready to "dig in and work on building my business"

The UFC is coming up on its 11th year under the ownership of Zuffa, and as they prepare to embark on their next level with a seven year television deal with Fox, UFC President Dana White reflected on getting to this point and not resting on their laurels as they move forward in an interview with the Houston Chronicle ahead of tonight's UFC 136 event:

"Everything we had planned on happening is happening. The Fox deal brings a lot more credibility for us. We've been given this opportunity to go mainstream. Now we have to make it happen. We have to kick some serious (butt) the next two years. There are no other hurdles for us now. My focus now is putting on great television events. Having a seven-year deal with Fox means I can dig in and work on building my business... People have been criticizing me for 10 years. Every move we've made the past 10 years was the wrong move and stupid and would never work. So I'm going to continue making moves that are stupid and will never work."
