Sean Strickland walking around Australia unsupervised the week he's fighting Izzy for the title. Recipe for disaster 😂.

Dana getting mad over Du Plessis “turning down the fight”, on such a short turnaround & while injured is 100% unreasonable

Why should dricus take a championship fight while injured on an 8 week notice the night after his fight when dana never makes fights the night of a fight 🤨 and a 20 hour flight home from the states and 20 to australia. What the hell is wrong with these people..🤦‍♂️

These reporters need to stop asking the same questions over and over again that he answered weeks if not months or years ago.

Strickland this week Punched a fan Called his best friend a coward Walking around with a glock Sunk a ship Fly tipped a boat on the side of the motorway Said Bruce buffer needs a face lift Said Izzy would be frog marching in Berlin if it was 1942 😭😭😭😂

Its gonna be BS if DDP gets overlooked bc he didnt want a fast turn around while he was hurt.

*"Sean winning the title will be the spark that ignites the people to rise up and overthrow the government."* -Chris Curtis

"I run a business & do lots of things for charity. Most of these other guys are running charities not businesses." Pretty cold line from Dana ngl

I like how Dana said Dricus just turned down the fight. He broke his damn foot lmao

Dana literally said it himself that DDP shouldn't be expected to take 9 weeks between Bobby knucks and Izzy. Clownish to call him out for 'turning down the fight'.

It blows my mind ppl wanting DDP to make a quick turnaround to fight Izzy WHILE being injured

5:30 Dana salty Dricus didn’t accept a fight 8 weeks after fighting Robert Whittaker

Damn Dana is a boss for a reason. Every single interview. He nails the question, or deflects it perfectly.

Audio is top notch for this vid. Great work

I'm not a DDP fan but how tf can Dana say u know how I feel about turning down a fight when Dricus just fought.

Dana stopped saying “the kid just doesn’t wanna fight” and started saying “go someone else if ur turning down fights”

That Dana face when he asked who the news came from about him punching a fan

crazy how now dricus may not get a title shot for not making a quick turnaround after beating the number 1 contender

Did you hear what he just said? He said after Strickland Adesanya has pretty much cleaned out the division. He’s totally looking past Strickland completely and thinks Adesanya is going to take him out. That’s pretty unfair to just completely look past him

"We pay our athletes more". Yeah, maybe after the lawsuit

I don't understand how no one is calling out Dana White for blaming DDP for declining the short notice title fight, due to Injury. Does he wants Dricus to go there in the biggest fight of his life unprepared?

the only DDP i know is Diamond Dallas Page

Dana saying Du Plessis “turned down the fight” and that he hates when guys “turn down fights” when Dricus is injured is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever heard him say. Does Dana expect these guys to be reader to fight for the title when they’re injured? What an insane thing to say.

This interview changed Bellators market value from $500,000,000 to about $5.00.

I've been a ufc fan for over 30 years and when Strickland punched that fan, it was the first time I've ever feared for my life at a mixed martial arts event.

Good stuff, they asked decent questions for once, and Dana was in a good mood. Congrats Dione Barbosa, Dylan Budka, Jean Silva, Brendson Ribeiro, Serhiy Sidey.

People don’t realize it yet but Strickland is going to wrestle in this fight.

Dana knows very well DDP didn't turn down that fight

Pretends not to hear the Aljo question but hears the Zuck/Musk question loud and clear 😂

Was hoping for a grilling like the one Steve Mazzagatti got

"you know how much i love it when people turn down fights" - dana "he aint getting a title shot" white

It's crazy how losing weight has made Dana's hearing better 😂

Connor getting his black belt brings me back tonthat khabib video floating around "everyone get belt"

Hey Dana what's up with the espn plus app not having the prelims On Demand last week. I miss some shii

Love the honesty! Cant help but respect it

After he said no one should buy bellator I can't wait to see Josh and big John cry a storm on they're podcast

Dana punched his wife so why would he care about a fan 😂

Wish someone would have asked him what exactly Aljo has said because I can't think of anything

People need to understand what attracts people to the ufc are the fighters and the respect those stars have for their organization. The media, promotion, all of it, is unmatched with other organizations. They could be fancy, but it simply will not have fans tune in over a ufc Conor ppv

that BS from Dana tryin to protect Izzy, what ever happened to the best fight the best, an injury isn't turning down a fight.

5:24 dana talking like izzy already won. no one thinks strickland will win lmao.

I didn't see the stoppage was talking about at the start but when he said he got screwed the guy was on his hands trying to get up I thought that sounded like the Sterling v o malley stoppage

10:44 that casual reporter says “Fury Tyson” he meant the Fury vs Francis fight 🤦🏻

Dana gripping the shit outta that mic

19:07 Dana’s facial expression OMFG🤣

Dana : "you know how much I love it when guys say no to me. I mean turn down fights!"

Dana gtfo! If someone is injured, how can they take a fight on 8 weeks notice! DDP is next if Izzy wins!

SHOUT OUT TO THE PUPPY‼️‼️‼️

2:01 crazy quote

For the Contender Series the biggest thing I’ve noticed from when it started until now is the guys coming in are at a way higher level than they used to be.

Dana mad because ddp didn't fall for the ufc's tricks.

I never thought I would say this about another man, but I love Strickland. Especially after watching Dana talk about dealing with him. He's my spirit animal.

I couldn't even hear half of these questions ive heard louder mice

Man I saw that red stoppage fight in front of me, way too soon.

Dana: he just had a bad night Also Dana: I just didn’t see it in them tonight

Dana looking for reasons to sign fighters at this point

Is there video of the sean strickland incident?

Didn't watch the France card it was 3am on Australia 💀💀💀

Dana trying not to laugh when she mentioned sean punches a fan

Not one Journalist asked about Mighty Mouse winning his first BJJ tournament, awful journalism.

Mario Yamasaki- "Finish him"

The Paris card when watching on t.v seemed quiet. Not sure what they are talking about. Buffer was announcing the fight and you could hear no fans at all.

If Sean punched a fan, they deserved it.

“Sometimes You just can’t get off” Yeah I don’t feel you on that brother.

When you can catch your fall from being “dropped” clearly way too early of a stoppage

"I'm pretty good at looking at guys." -D.W.

Not sure if I am gonna watch UFC this weekend… but I am gonna watch the press conference for sure… it’s gonna be lit

“We beat the NBA!” Nah bro they beat the UFC by paying their players more.

Those France fans were insane! I could feel the energy from the t.v! What a night.

Bro, that thumbnail is the reason why AI generated imagines are so fkn confusing.

Saudi potentially buying PFL and Bellator is a looming threat for Dana

Dana at the low point of his PED cycle

Bellator vs UFC vs ONE Championship vs PFL, Which promotion pays the best? I'm not talking about high end fighters who make good money but as a general every fighter minimum pay. I've heard that ONE Championship pays for the traveling, accommodation & medical fees of the fighters.

*Sean Strickland pimp slaps a pregnant woman* : *Dana White* : “Don’t you just love this guy?!”

Dana said sometimes you can’t get off 😂

I'm so glad Dylan Budka got the contract! I know his family and they deserve this!!

Always like 👍🏼 to hear from Dana.

18:45 why he stickin his tongue out like a snake 😂

7:27

Dricus made the best decision to wait and take a break. He has been more active since Izzy before his last fight. He has been saying yes and amen to UFC since the start. He will be fully fit come the title fight. Something Izzy clearly did not want.

Please come to Minneapolis 😂

Can we get a UFC card in Indianapolis. I think the last one was UFC 119 Mir vs Cro Cop in 2010

The "Fury...Tyson" fight... MMA media😂

I like the way Dana destroyed the question on bellitor…👀😹😆

"Sometimes you dont sleep right, sometimes you just cant get off." 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Sean won’t last two rounds. This is a very mismatched fight. They are giving this one to Izzy basically

Sean can punch a fan but connor punched a drunk dude and people where up in arms . Confirms Sean's can't get in trouble due to his disability...

“Fury Tyson” 😂

0:16 maybe Saturday...

Is it just me, or does Dana look really aged in this interview

Dana is looking rough. Whoever that guy is Dana credited as a health guru he should move move on to the next guru because he looks really bad.

They need to do a crossover president vs president fight event. Dana vs pfl pres or belletor pres. Id watch

Dana's Side Eye to Conor gettin his black belt. Too Funny lol

Jesus. Dana didn't have to do Bellator like that 😂.. He ain't wrong tho

Dana saying it's not about money with a straight face is comical.

Doesn't mind telling telling the ref to stop aljo at the first opportunity he knew exactly what he was thinking while explaining the terrible stoppage lol

I hear no audio

Danas so harsh on fighters yet the guy beats his own wife.

"do you know where the news came from that he punched a fan?" with the biggest look of disappointment on his face, Dana knew Sean was gonna be more of a menace abroad 😂😂😂
