UFC President Dana White ripped into the media and sideline critics in a rant during an interview with a popular podcast.
White made the comments on the “Bussin’ with the Boys” podcast hosted by former NFL players Will Compton and Taylor Lewan.
“If the media tells you you’ve got something that’s gonna fail, it’s definitely gonna f***in’ win!” said White.
“The media are the dumbest, know-nothin’, do-nothin’, never f***in’ built nothin’ motherf***ers on planet Earth. So when they say, ‘It isn’t gonna work,’ you got a f***in’ home run, man!” he added while the hosts laughed.
“You know what I mean? Jump in and grind. The media, these guys, think about who these people are. When you really think about the media, who are they? Where did they come from? Why does their opinion matter? What have they ever done? What have they ever created?” he asked rhetorically.
“What have they ever built? Who’s ever depended on a paycheck from the media? Nobody,” White concluded. “They are a bunch of f***in’ zeroes that sit around and write stories about people who are actually doing s***.”
White faced some criticism from the right after he announced that the UFC was partnering with Bud Light after the company’s transgender public relations disaster. He has since explained that the company does far more good for its U.S. workers and for veterans than the bad it might have done with the transgender marketing campaign.
“When you talk about being a sellout, I had multiple deals in front of me. So it’s not like ‘oh Bud Light showed up and they were the only option I had to get money.’ Do you know how f***ing stupid that is?” he said in October.
“For Anheuser-Busch it was about values, core values for me,” White explained. “Almost a billion dollars a year go to U.S. farmers for their crops, for their products; that is right up my alley, that’s exactly who I am. 65,000 Americans are employed by Anheuser-Busch, and thousands of them are vets; right up my alley.”
