UFC President Dana White is one of the most controversial figures not just in the sport of MMA, but in all of sports. His up-front personality and often times foul language isn’t exactly what we see from other executives in the major sports.

Given his success as the man in charge of the UFC, White’s list of accomplishments seems to grow on almost a weekly basis. At times, it’s almost as if we get a new piece of huge breaking news every morning.
He may not be the traditional suit-and-tie businessman that you would get from someone like Bud Selig from the MLB or Roger Goodell from the NFL, but White’s success in promoting his sport has to make him a strong candidate for being the best executive in all of sports.
