Dana White believes Khabib Nurmagomedov's Dagestani "crew" could take over the United States

Dana White spoke about the youth in the United States at present and how they have gone "soft."

The UFC CEO recently appeared on The Full Send Podcast hosted by the Nelk Boys, where he spoke about everything from the latest UFC news to the most pressing topics in the United States, such as the country's youth.

In one segment of the podcast, he spoke about the difference in mentality between today's American youth and Khabib Nurmagomedov's Dagestani "crew":

"So, if we go to war right now, are you confident in this generation that we have right now? That these guys are going to go to war and storm some f***ing beach somewhere? There's a small handful of people, most of them probably down around the Bible belt and down south... Khabib's crew in Dagestan could probably come in and take over this country."

Take a look at a clip from the podcast:

White went on to talk about how the American youth kept getting "softer" and how every 10 years it kept getting worse. He believes it's a difference in mentality that separates them from the people in Khabib Nurmagomedov's crew.
