UFC CEO Dana White and his family congratulated a Los Angeles Rams star player on an outstanding season, showing support and appreciation for his performance.
Los Angeles Rams' Puka Nacua, despite missing five games due to a PCL sprain, recorded 79 receptions for 990 yards in the 2024 season.
Nacua shared a good relationship with White’s family as he grew up with them, and the UFC head honcho funded the team Little Cowboys, which Nacua used to play for in his earlier days en route to earning contract in the NFL.
White took to Instagram and shared a snap of Nacua to congratulate him for having another great season. He also tagged his children, with whom the NFL player grew up. White wrote:

Dana White teases NFL-Style broadcasting deal as UFC's current contract nears end in 2025
The UFC signed a five-year deal with ESPN back in 2019 for a whopping $1.5 billion. The deal is set to expire this year, and the promotion is on the lookout for a new broadcasting partner, with many considering Netflix as the frontrunner.
UFC boss Dana White, speaking to Sports Business Journal, revealed that the organization might follow the broadcasting strategy of WWE or the NFL. White said:
“We’re the biggest pay-per-view provider on the planet, I think we’re going to do very well going into this next deal. I think as we go into our negotiations in 2025, this thing could play out in a lot of different ways. Obviously we could be with Disney and ESPN for however many years or you could see all our content get chopped up like WWE and NFL does and different products going to different networks. I don’t know how that’s going to play out as we get closer to getting into these negotiations, but it is a possibility.”
