UFC CEO and President Dana White made it clear during an interview with comedian and podcaster Theo Von that he will “never, ever respond to the evil advertiser,” insisting that “you can never let these people fuck it. You’re being held hostage or trying to change who you are or what you stand for, or trying to determine how you’re going to run your business.”
On that note, White said he told a major UFC sponsor to “f**k you” when the unnamed company pushed him to remove a video about Donald Trump he shared on the Social Networks.
“One of our big sponsors called and said, take it down,” White told Theo Von. “You know what I said? Fuck you.”
“You vote for who you want to vote for, and I’ll vote for who I want to vote for,” he continued. “That’s how this works. I don’t even care who you vote for. It’s none of my fucking business. to shit Don’t ever call me and tell me who to vote for.”
Theo chimed in to say that many people “feel scared these days … that if they don’t vote for certain people they’re going to lose their jobs,” citing Hollywood as an example.
White and Trump are longtime friends, and he was seen escorting the former president to Madison Square Garden over the weekend for UFC 295 — Trump entered the arena like a boss, accompanied by Tucker Carlson and Kid Rock as the iconic rocker “American Badass” played. the public address system.
The UFC boss also spoke in support of Trump at the 2016 Republican National Convention.
White said he would react the same way to any UFC sponsor who didn’t have a problem with his longtime friendship with Trump.
“I’m at a point in my life and career now where I want to be with people I’m aligned with,” White said. “It’s not just about the money. It’s about the money because it’s a sponsorship deal, but it’s not just that [about the money]. I won’t accept a bigger offer if it’s not something I’m aligned with and believe in 100%.
“When you do a sponsorship deal with somebody,” he continued, “you have to really look at who they are and who’s running the company, who’s making the decisions, and are you aligned?”
