Dana White received a lot of criticism for leaving UFC on ESPN 50 main event early
After Dana White was spotted exiting the venue during Cory Sandhagen and Rob Font’s main event fight at UFC Nashville, MMA fans started to react in a negative way
Due to Font’s last-minute substitution for Umar Nurmagomedov, the bout continued at a catchweight of 140 pounds. Despite the last-minute change in adversaries, Sandhagen rose to the occasion and immediately neutralized any threat from Font.
Despite Cory Sandhagen’s decisive victory, there was little back-and-forth action in the bout, which many people feel is why Dana White left the arena early. White is well known for criticizing fighters openly if they fight in a boring fashion and many suspect that it was another case like that.
