UFC President Dana White has not always had the greatest relationship with members of the media. The head of the UFC once earned some controversy for the expulsion of Ariel Helwani’s credentials after the journalist reported that Brock Lesnar would be making an octagon return at UFC 200.
Well, it would appear that the UFC president recently got heated with TMZ Sports. TMZ Sports recently reported a story on how Dana White and UFC veteran Tito Ortiz nearly fought. It is not yet clear if this is the source of Dana White’s frustrations, but the UFC President has made a statement.
Tito Ortiz recently took to Twitter to leak a series of tweets Dana White allegedly sent demanding that the TMZ Sports story be removed. Check it out below.
“.@TMZ please don’t tell me your fake news now. @danawhite and I are cool.”
