Dana White talks Trump, deaf-mutes and international expansion
By Steve Cofield
We stumbled upon the oddest interview with a multi-millionaire we've ever seen. You may not like UFC president Dana White but the guy has a lot of patience. He's willing to sell his sport even in the most strange settings.
Now you have to be willing to deal with the weird video quality. White morphs into a robotic, alien character a few times. Think Alien Nation. And there are plenty of fine shots of the walls, the floor and UFC's public relations escorts, Jen and Loren.
The video is watermarked courtesy of Fox9 in Minneapolis. I can't imagine this guy is an on-air personality. All mocking aside, the guy does get some interesting quotes from White and seems to know his stuff.
On Donald Trump entering the MMA fray with Affliction:
"Donald Trump, I have a lot of respect for. Back in the day when we couldn't get venues, the first two fights we did with a casino, we did fights with Trump Taj Mahal. But at the end of the day, I'm not going to go into the real estate business to compete with Donald Trump."
