UFC president, Dana White remains coy on the recent search of former United States president, Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, claiming that while he is unaware of the exact details surrounding the former president, but described the ongoing issue as “madness”.
White, who campaigned and supported Trump at a rally for the former United States president back in February 2020, hosted the former president at a UFC 244 event at Madison Square Garden in New York City – ahead of a symbolic BMF championship fight between both Jorge Masvidal, and Nate Diaz.
Earlier this week, reports emerged detailing how the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) had conducted a search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate – with comparisons drawn of the former nation leader to those of the ‘Watergate’ scandal, while another claimed the search of his estate “would make a third-world dictator blush”.
Sharing his thoughts on the latest scandal surrounding Trump, White spoke with assembled media following Dana White’s Contender Series at the UFC Apex facility last night – claiming that others within the political spectrum should have had their properties searched well before Trump.
“It’s madness, man,” Dana White said. “The whole world is crazy right now. I don’t know what to think, and I don’t know much about it. I haven’t talked to him (Donald Trump), I’ve only seen bits and pieces about it on the news. So I don’t know exactly what’s going on. I’ll probably call him in the next couple days – I didn’t wanna call him, like – I’m sure he’s got better f*cking things to do for me to call and say, ‘Hey, what’s going on over there (Mar-a-Lago)?’ I will talk to him in the next couple days.”
“… I don’t know much about it,” Dana White said. “I can think about – without getting political right now, and with all this f*cking bullsh*t, there’s 10 other people’s houses that should have been raided before his (Donald Trump), that hasn’t happened. So, it’ll be interesting to see how this thing plays out.”

UFC President Dana White isn’t happy with YouTube’s decision to take down a recent podcast appearance by former US President Donald Trump.
White and Trump have been friends for years, stemming from Trump’s previous involvement with the UFC in the early Zuffa years when the promotion struggled to find venues for events. The UFC held events at Trump’s Taj Mahal hotel in Atlantic City, NJ for UFC 28, UFC 30, and UFC 31.
White has also been a proud supporter of Trump’s recent U.S. presidential campaigns in 2016 and 2020. He was a speaker at various rallies and conferences in support of Trump’s political aspirations.
Controversy ensued during Trump’s recent appearance on the FULL SEND podcast, and White has a strong relationship with the hosts of the show. Trump used part of his appearance to claim that the 2020 US Presidential election was stolen from him in favor of Joe Biden.
Just days after the full podcast episode was posted to YouTube, the website took it down allegedly because of Trump’s controversial remarks about the election.
In a recent appearance on Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, White ripped YouTube for their decision to censor Trump.
“Total crock of shit. Total crock of shit, White said. “But you saw in the podcast, Trump told them, ‘This podcast will be taken down.’ He told them that. He knew it. It’s crazy…
“The fact that Trump’s podcast with FULL SEND got taken down is fuckin’ disgusting and, more importantly, it’s scary. Very fuckin’ scary.”
The topic of cancel culture has been a hot topic in recent years. Social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook have taken controversial stances to silence people with different viewpoints, like Trump.
White went on to elaborate on why YouTube’s decision could create a bad precedent.
“First of all, you have to start looking at alternative social media platforms that don’t censor. And it’s easy (when) you got a guy that you don’t like, like Trump. ‘Oh, fuck him,’ you know what I mean? ‘Good. We don’t have to see his tweets and we don’t have to do this and that.’ Till you say something they don’t like or until somebody else says something they don’t like. This country was built on free speech, man. It’s our god-given right…
“When you have a company, or corporation, or government that can come in and fuckin’ tell you what you can and can’t say, we’re in a scary place.”
Trump has hinted at a third run for president in 2024, although it hasn’t been formally announced that he intends to run again.
As for White, he’s expected to be in attendance for the UFC’s return across the pond at the UFC London event this weekend, headlined by a heavyweight matchup between Tom Aspinall and Alexander Volkov.
Do you agree with Dana White?

Kevin Lee has revealed he would like Donald Trump to pick the next opponent he will face in Eagle FC.
Following on from his unanimous decision victory over Diego Sanchez at Eagle FC 46 the former UFC fighter revealed he wants Trump to be involved when it comes to finding him his next challenge. Lee was able to secure the victory over Sanchez despite sustaining damage to his knee that he suffered within the first round.
Lee then caught viewers off guard during his post-fight interview in which he would reveal his interest in having Donald Trump involved.
“I hear Donald Trump is starting to get back into promoting,” Lee stated. “So, it would be fun if he picked the next opponent.”
Trump has had experience within the fight industry previously. The 45th U.S. President owned a large amount of equity stake in Affliction Entertainment who hosted multiple MMA events. Trump himself would appear at some of these events and promote them during the promotion short stay from 2008-2009.
If Lee is correct and Donald Trump is making a return to the MMA world, it will be interesting to see where he ends up at.
Kevin Lee was able to secure himself a successful debut victory over Diego Sanchez at Eagle FC 46 despite suffering an injury and it seems this victory has boosted ‘The Motown Phenom’s confidence by some way. Following on from his win Lee used his post-fight interview to stake his claim at a shot for the title.
"I'm the best 165er out here"

“There’s no doubt, I’m the best 165er out here,” Lee stated. “The best guy for anyone who wants to weigh 165.” (Transcribed by Middleeasy.com)
Given the birth of the new 165lbs division it may not be long before Kevin Lee obtains the first chance to secure the Eagle FC super lightweight title and deliver on his promise of being the best.

Former US President Donald Trump has claimed that Dana White is simply irreplaceable within the UFC, and he could not see the company’s future without him involved. Trump spoke on an episode of the Full Send Podcast and had this to say.
“I don’t know what would happen to the UFC without him. That’s one man. They say you can always replace somebody. I’m not sure if that man is replaceable.”
No one can argue White helped elevate not only the UFC but the entire sport to help it get to where it stands today. Trump has also had a close relationship to the UFC. Jorge Masvidal joined Donald Trump Jr. during his re-election campaign to promote ‘fighters against socialism’. The former president is known to have a close relationship with Masvidal’s opponent from this last weekend in Colby Covington having shared a picture together inside of the White House. According to reports Trump was supporting Jorge Masvidal heading into last weekends clash at UFC 272.
Donald Trump and Dana White have been acquainted since the now UFC president bought the promotion back with the Fertitta brothers. Trump can often be seen in attendance at UFC events and has offered out his facility at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City
The UFC boss openly supports trump and showed his support for the former president back in 2016 whilst delivering a speech at the Republican National Convention.
“I’ve been in the fight business my whole life. I know fighters. Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump is a fighter, and I know he’ll fight for this country. Arenas around the world refused to host our events. Nobody took us seriously; nobody except Donald Trump. Donald was the first guy that recognized the potential that we saw in the UFC and encouraged us to build our business.” (Transcribed by Sportskeeda.com)
