Dana White is the President of the UFC and is certainly a controversial figure in the world of MMA. Dana White was also previously accused of an ‘illegal crime’ in Las Vegas.
Michael Chandler decided to come to the aid of Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta after alleged leaked messages between the two have been made public. Content platform MMA On Point posted a video on Instagram where it elaborated on the latest class-action antitrust lawsuit against the UFC. In it, a leaked conversation between the UFC president White and former CEO Fertitta showed how the two celebrated a cut-throat business move that is deemed detrimental to some fighters.
Michael Chandler took to social media and defended the two, stating that White and Fertitta did nothing unethical.
“Heaven forbid a business owner who has had 10x more sleepless nights than any of his employees/fighters wants to win…news flash…we all have matching rights in our contacts, bellator could have done the same thing to me if they wanted to pony up. This is the business…all other sports have the same thing happen daily. Those on lower rungs will always take aim at those on higher rungs instead of just focusing on climbing. See you at the top!”
