The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has quickly made its way to becoming the world’s most famous mixed martial arts promotion. Consequently, the UFC has a dedicated following of fight fans that are greatly passionate about the sport of MMA.
Of course, now all fans are the same. The cultural differences between the many countries to which the UFC broadcasts their exciting fight cards has perhaps caused UFC President Dana White to acknowledge a difference among the different groups of fans.
Speaking at the UFC Fight Night 130 Post-Fight Press Conference, Dana White revealed that he believes few countries support their local fighters like that of Ireland and England.
“Nobody supports their people like the English and the Irish, man.” White said.
The statement was likely inspired by Ireland native Conor McGregor, as well as Darren Till’s performance in his hometown of Liverpool, England in the main event of UFC Fight Night 130.
