Dana White clarifies on his jabs at wrestling being fake

Dana White clarifies on his anti-WWE comments

UFC president Dana White recently was subjected to a hit of heat due to his comments on wrestling being fake. He was on the receiving end of a lot of heat on twitter and other social media platforms.

He has come out and clarified that he respects the wrestlers and whenever they come to the UFC events they get the respect they deserve. He ends by saying he still stands by his comments and doesn’t really care about it. The heat he got for it was unwarranted according to him and this was the statement he made:

"Listen, try to do anything today without pissing people off. Try it. I mean anything you say people get mad, you just gotta not care and I don't care. Anything you say on Twitter or Instagram or anywhere these days every week I have a different group mad at me so you know it's always something, but it's still the world we live in today”.

“My Twitter and social media has been exactly the same since the day I got on it and one of the things, you said it best, the more successful you become, the bigger something gets, the harder it is to be yourself and to really speak honestly because somebody ends up getting mad. You literally just have to get to the point where you just don't care who gets mad and that's that's that's how I am."

"I've had my, you know, my battles with Vince [McMahon] behind the scenes with some stuff that we've worked on but I respect all the guys in the WWE in the wrestling profession. We have so many guys that are that are fans of the UFC and when they come to the events we take very good care of 'em, we treat 'em with respect, I have yet to meet a bad guy from the wrestling world.

“Everybody is really classy and everybody's really cool. My wrestling thing was just a response to an idiot on social media that was talking smack so I kind of gave him a zinger back and the whole wrestling world went crazy on me. But it is what it is, to be honest with you I really don't care."
