UFC’s Dana White recently stated that he told a big sponsor to “go f*** yourself” after they told him to delete a social media post that he shared of former President Donald Trump.
It has been noted that while speaking during a guest appearance on comedian Theo Von’s podcast, White disclosed an episode where a prominent UFC sponsor tried to get him to remove a post on his social media.
The post in question was a video in which White expressed his support for former President Donald Trump, a longstanding friend of the UFC President.
In case one forgot, White had been a vocal advocate for Trump during the 2016 Republican National Convention.
When the sponsor told Dana White to remove that video supporting Donald Trump, Dana White made it clear he was not going to do that and he blasted the sponsor with a profane response.
“I posted a video for Trump on my personal social media,” White said. “One of our big sponsors called and said, ‘Take that down.’ You know what I said? Go f*** yourself.
“You vote for whoever you want to vote for and I’ll vote for whoever I want to vote for. That’s how this works. I don’t even care who you’re voting for. It’s none of my f****** business. F*** you. Don’t ever f****** call me and tell me who to vote for.”
NEW: UFC’s Dana White says he told a big sponsor to “go f*** yourself” after they told him to delete a social media post that he shared of Donald Trump.
