Julianna Pena reveals involvement of Dana White in pranking Amanda Nunes

Pena recently appeared on the UFC 277 media day where she talked about a prank that they had planned on Nunes during their time in the TUF.
Pena revealed that they indeed had a prank planned for Nunes. The plan was to get a bear and surprise Nunes by locking her along with the bear. According to Pena, legendary stuntman Johnny Knoxville and Dana White were also a part of it. But unfortunately, they couldn’t accommodate a bear and later a tiger and also midgets. However, in the end things didn’t work out.
She said :
” I will tell you that Johnny Knoxville was involved and that they had a bear and we were gonna lock her in the room and when she walks in there she’s gonna see this gigantic bear and lock the door and she can’t get out and start freaking out. Jhonny Knoxville was on board, Dana White was on board and then they were like, we have the fights on Saturday night this bear has to get acclimated to to this room for four nights…we need the room for the fights and so they ended up they couldn’t have the bear so we changed it to a tiger and midgets.”
Knoxville is an extremely famous TV personality for his crazy and dangerous stunts he and his team used to do in the show Jackass. With an individual like him on board, the prank would have been an amazing one. But it seems like Nunes was lucky to not experience something so shocking.
