5 Surprising facts about Dana White 

#3 He attended every live UFC fight for 11 years

Regardless of the criticism that Dana has faced over the years, its hard to deny that he has been a faithful employee of the UFC. Sure, he isn't exactly right in the midst of the action at every instance but this wasn't always the case.

Dana was synonymous with any UFC event as the company grew and for good reason. He was the company's mouth-piece and one of MMA's best advocates. And most importantly, it's just hilarious to watch Dana trying to separate two much larger trained killers. Therefore, Dana's tweet announcing that he would miss his first fight in 11 years came as a shock to all.

The president elaborated that he had to undergo surgery owing to his then recently diagnosed Ménière's disease and later explained that his ear was bothering him at the post-fight press conference for UFC 141. He then said that he was dizzy and about to pass out. Dana was clearly devasted that he had to miss a fight and the tweet speaks volumes of his dedication to the UFC.
