Dana White rage-quit a live stream after fans gave him sh*t over his unending praise for Jon Jones.
While the UFC CEO may not be the best of friends with the undisputed heavyweight champion, White has been more than willing to hail ‘Bones’ as the No. 1 P4P fighter in the world and then promptly argue with anyone who says otherwise.
As a result, that’s made White a bit of a target on social media with fight fans constantly trolling him over his adulation of a fighter who has only competed one time in the last four-and-a-half years.
While interacting with fans on Instagram Live ahead of Tuesday’s episode of Dana White’s Contender Series, the UFC boss man abruptly shut things down after multiple comments came rolling in about his obsequious flattery of Jones.

“Shut the f*ck up. Look at the stats, read them. Best of all time, and he is the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world. Ride that motherf*cker.”
Of course, White has a sense of humor about the subject, so long as you catch him at the right time. Not long after closing down his Instagram Live in a tizzy, he returned only to be bombarded with more comments about Jon Jones. This time, someone asked White if he was going to “oil up” the former light heavyweight champ.
White couldn’t help, but laugh at the comment before calling the commenters “mentally ill.”

“When’s this oil thing going to go away?… This guy says, ‘When you going to oil up Jon Jones?’. You guys are f*cking mentally ill” White said.
With Jon Jones rumored to return in November for UFC 309 in Madison Square Garden, we can only assume that White will continue to poke at pundits with his unabashed love for Jones over the next couple of months.
Ray Longo, a longtime coach for UFC bantamweight Merab Dvalishvili, has hit back at some comments recently made by Dana White. Dvalishvili is set to ride a 10-fight winning run into his first title challenge this weekend, which comes in the main event of the highly anticipated Noche UFC 306 pay-per-view at the Sphere.

Ray Longo, a longtime coach for UFC bantamweight Merab Dvalishvili, has hit back at some comments recently made by Dana White.
Dvalishvili is set to ride a 10-fight winning run into his first title challenge this weekend, which comes in the main event of the highly anticipated Noche UFC 306 pay-per-view at the Sphere.
While the overall card has had its critics, the headliner between the Georgian contender and reigning champion Sean O’Malley has created significant intrigue and drawn a variety of predictions.
There was a time a few weeks ago, however, when some feared for the matchup’s place on the card after Dvalishvili revealed a deep-looking cut sustained in training on social media.
“The Machine’s” decision to publicly display the cut caused debate, with the UFC CEO being among those unimpressed by Dvalishvili’s antics.
“The whole world knows about Merab’s cut. He posted it. Our guys are so dumb, it’s next-level unbelievable,” White said during a DWCS press conference. “All the stuff I talk about boxing, what I will give boxing, is when something happens in a camp, man, let me tell you what, it does not leak. Our guys can’t f*cking wait to throw it up on social media.
“It’s a small cut. It’s no big deal. But obviously, it needed to be posted,” White continued. “Why the f*ck would you want him to know that? It is next-level stupid. Some of these guys are so stupid it’s mind-boggling. It’s unbelievable.”
After Aljamain Sterling leapt to Dvalishvili’s defense and branded White’s reaction “over the top,” coach Longo has now shared a similar sentiment.
During a recent interview with Kevin Iole, Longo looked ahead to Dvalishvili’s long-awaited first opportunity to reach the mountaintop in the UFC.
The veteran trainer was asked about the cut suffered by the Georgian in training, which became one of the hottest topics in the lead-up to Noche UFC 306.
Longo dismissed the importance of revealing such a blemish to an opponent like O’Malley, and he strongly pushed back on White’s reaction to “The Machine’s” social media activity.
“I’m not the social media guy, so I don’t get it. But you have to expect this sh*t with these kids today. They film everything. They film tying their shoelaces,” Longo said. “He’s been a camera guy since the second I met him. He’s crazy with the camera. But look, if it was a knee injury, I’d say that would be a problem. Now you’re gonna target something. (But) he’s gonna get cut in the fight. It is what it is. He’s gonna get punched in the face. … A cut’s a cut, and if it opens up, I don’t think it’ll have an impact on the fight.
“One thing Dana was really wrong on was he called him a dummy. He’s far from a dummy,” Longo continued. “(Dvalishvili’s) very intelligent. He’s a humble guy, got humble beginnings. He’s fighting for his country. There’s certain guys that that type of sh*t means a lot. He’s one of them. He’s (O’Malley’s) gonna have to beat this kid dead, that I guarantee you.”
Dvalishvili will look to display a different type of intelligence come fight night in Las Vegas on Saturday by using his fight IQ to secure a memorable title crowning inside the Sphere.
His opportunity to do so comes in the final fight of the 10-fight lineup, on which he’ll mark the second championship challenger to make the walk after Valentina Shevchenko’s attempt to achieve two-time status at Alexa Grasso’s expense.
While “The Machine” trains in Las Vegas with John Wood these days, he’s still expected to have the likes of coach Longo and teammate Sterling in his corner this weekend.

UFC CEO, Dana White has revealed an exciting offer to eagle-eyed fans ahead of this weekend’s Noche UFC card…
UFC CEO, Dana White has revealed an exciting offer to eagle-eyed fans ahead of this weekend’s Noche UFC card at the Las Vegas Sphere, with a lucky viewer in for a $25,000 windfall if they can spot all the ‘easter eggs’ littered into this weekend’s broadcast for the monumental pay-per-view card.
Featuring at the massive Las Vegas Sphere this weekend for a Noche/UFC 306 card, the promotion features a massive championship fight doubleheader, at the bantamweight and flyweight limits.
Headlining the card; an undisputed bantamweight championship fight as undisputed gold holder, Sean O’Malley takes on the biggest threat to his short reign so far, as he battles with surging number one rated contender, Merab Dvalishvili.
And in the night’s co-main event, flyweight gold is up for grabs as undisputed champion, Alexa Grasso takes on decorated former titleholder, Valentina Shevchenko in the pair’s trilogy fight for spoils.
First matching in the co-main event of UFC 285 back in March of last year, Grasso upset the apple cart in her initial title charge in the promotion, submitting Shevchenko with a stunning choke, before retaining the crown in a Noche UFC main event last September, after the duo fought to a majority draw.
Earlier this week, organizational boss, White claimed the Noche UFC event was on course to beat out a prior $17,700,000 gate set by UFC 205 back in 2016 — and has now revealed a $25,000 payout to eagle-eyed fans will be on offer if they can spot all the ‘easter eggs’ littered throughout the broadcast.
“The fight will live inside this world, and the world will evolve while the fights are going on, but it will be very subtle,” Dana White said following the Contender Series. “Clouds will move, fires will burn, birds will fly, whatever the hell is going on in that world at that time — it will slowly evolve during the fight.”
“There are going to be Easter eggs in each one of these films, ” Dana White explained. “We’re working out out with legal right now, but what I want to do: if somebody can find all the Easter eggs, we’ll give you $25,000.”
