Dana White was left confused when he found a reporter referring to himself as a former Mexican. White throughout his years as the president of UFC has managed to professionally answer every question from the media. However, there are a few moments when even Dana can’t fathom what is happening, giving the fans a hilarious interaction.
UFC 263 delivered on its promises of exciting fights and memorable moments. From the shockingly close bout between Edwards and Diaz to Moreno’s historic win, and Adesanya’s one-sided performance, the event left fans eager for more. After the event, it was, as usual, time for Dana White to answer some questions during the post-fight interview. Throughout the interview, White was seen asking reporters to repeat themselves. It almost seemed like White was having hearing issues, which ended up giving fans a break to grab a snack for entertainment.
A reporter prior to interviewing Dana referred to himself as a former Mexican. The UFC President could not believe what he heard and asked again for confirmation. “Formerly Mexican, now American,” said the reporter. After this, White was left puzzled and asked, “How the hell does that work?” What the reporter meant was he lived in Mexico before and then moved to America. So he was actually referring to his nationality rather than his ethnicity.
However, White assumed the reporter was talking about his ethnicity and was left puzzled. This led to an amusing interaction, with all the other reporters laughing it out.
Dana White goes off on reporter for asking stupid questions
UFC President Dana White has done a great job staying the face of the organization apart from its fighters. However, the UFC president also has a knack for getting into controversies, making him a good target for journalists. While White professionally answers all the questions to the best of his capacity, there are a few that set him off.
Dana White blasted famous MMA journalist The Schmo for his suggestive questions at the UFC 287 media day. The UFC made headlines after it was recently involved in a huge merger with the WWE. Covering this news, The Schmo asked Kevin Holland a simple question. “WWE UFC Merger, one umbrella. Past or present professional wrestling. If you could take one person with the steel chair to the skull, who would it be? or UFC fighter? Wrestling ring,” questioned the Schmo. However, Holland had been in 2 altercations with Jorge Masvidal before the event. If Holland had decided to utter Masvidal’s name havoc might have been caused on stage. But Holland avoided the question and managed to play it safe. This incident, however, left Dana infuriated, and went off on the reporter in an interview later on.
“And then that other f*cking idiot gets up there and goes now that the WWE deal is done. Who would you like to hit with a f*cking chair? You motherf*cker that’s who. Sit down and shut the f*ck up. That’s what I gotta deal with every f*cking weekend. Listen to this f*cking idiot,” said the enraged Dana White. While Jorge Masvidal has retired from the sport, fans can only hope that the beef between the fighters has been dissolved as well. But with the statement from Dana, it does not look like The Schmo will be on good terms with White anytime soon.
