In a recent podcast chat with Theo Von, Dana White, the big boss of the UFC, spilled the beans about a major sponsor giving him flak over posting about a certain controversial Republican on social media. When Von mentioned that a sponsor had a problem with an episode featuring Robert F. Kennedy Jr., White didn’t mince words. He shot back with a sassy “Go f*ck yourself.”

White didn’t stop there. He added that when he posted a pro-Trump video on his personal socials and got a call from another big sponsor telling him to take it down, he basically told them to take a hike. He made it clear that everyone’s entitled to their own political views, and no one has the right to tell him what to post.
As if that’s not spicy enough, White also talked about how he’s all about supporting common sense Democrats. He even threw some shade at the haters. And guess what? White’s not the only one making waves. Trending Politics reported that he, along with the likes of Trump and Kid Rock, made a grand entrance at UFC 295 in New York. The crowd went absolutely wild when they strolled out to Kid Rock’s “American Badass.”
And speaking of Trump, remember when he became the first sitting U.S. President to grace a UFC event? Yep, that happened during his first term, when he showed up for the Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal showdown. He even reminisced about the early days of UFC, claiming he helped the sport find venues when no one else would touch it with a ten-foot pole.
Well, if all that isn’t enough to stir the political pot, then what is? It’s clear that these conservative powerhouses aren’t afraid to speak their minds and stand up for what they believe in. And in the world of MMA and politics, it looks like the gloves are definitely off!
