Dana White Blasts Greg Jackson, Says a Training Camp Isn't a 'Family'

Greg Jackson is one of the most accomplished and highly regarded coaches in mixed martial arts, and he has been credited with forming one of the most elite camps in the sport.

But along with having UFC champions Georges St-Pierre and Jon Jones near his side, Jackson has also faced his fair share of criticism.

Most recently, Jackson's loyalty had been questioned after he chose to corner Jon Jones for his upcoming bout against Rashad Evans at UFC 145. Jackson said he took full responsibility for the rift that came between Evans and Jones, but UFC President Dana White isn't buying that explanation.

In a recent interview on Yahoo! Sports' Cagewriter, White said Jackson attempted to exploit the Jones vs. Evans feud for more money. The UFC boss said that Jackson's idea of being in a family-like environment shouldn't' be taken literally.

"

"There is one thing that is an absolute fact, and no matter how often Greg Jackson pumps that family [expletive], Greg Jackson is a [expletive] businessman," White told Cagewriter. "These guys need to make the decision where they train based on where they think they'll get the best work and develop the best, and not on this [expletive] crazy idea that you're becoming a part of a family."

"

However, White was not condemning Jackson for what he does, but he simply pointed out that Jackson's intention is to make as much money as possible. White said Jackson benefits from having such stars as Jones and St-Pierre in his camp.

"The more top guys he brings in, the more money he makes," White said. "There's nothing wrong with Greg Jackson, but he's a [expletive] businessman."

White has seemed bothered by the fact that teammates have refused to fight one another, but the recent feud between Evans and Jones is living proof that is not entirely possible to rule out two teammates competing against each other.
