While talking about it to MMA reporter, The Schmo, Dariush mentioned he was disappointed and talked with Dana White about it. According to Dariush, during their conversation White showed him some future UFC plans featuring Donald Trump.
He said: “We were going back and forth about it and then he knows I’m a big fan of Trump so he’s like ‘Hey let me show you some stuff we’re doing, some stuff with Trump’ and I felt like almost like good cop, bad cop like you know had the bad cop first thing I had the good cop but man I get along well with Dana.”
