The UFC President’s son won his first amateur fight.
Dana White’s son, Aidan competed for the first time as an amateur boxer. It was at an event called “St. Patrick’s Day Boxing Show” in the Junior Golden Gloves division, and the younger White made his debut at 130 lbs against Andre LeClerc.
Aidan was successful on his first outing, and White immediately took to social media during his proud moment as a dad.

“BOOM first one under his belt,” White wrote on social media. “Congrats @aidanwhite29 hard work pays off!!!”
White’s longtime friend and former UFC owner, Lorenzo Fertitta was also there to support the teenager. All three were sporting “Zuffa Boxing” t-shirts, a nod to the UFC President’s plans to branch out to another sport.
