Dana White takes sides with Stephen Espinoza

UFC President Dana White has picked his Showtime Sports counterpart’s side. White had an issue with Espinoza and Paul not revealing accurate pay-per-view numbers of the YouTuber-turned-Boxer’s fights.

The UFC President said, “Let me tell you what. If Espinosa, the weasel, if the weasel, would let him go, after investing the money that he did in his earlier fights, that tells you something.” White spoke of the nature of the business that Espinoza and he were involved in. Moreover, White also spoke about what Espinoza would do with ‘The Problem Child’.

Dana White revealed that there was no chance that Espinoza would let go of Paul if they weren’t having a good business partnership. The UFC President said, “There is no f*cking way that guy would let him go if he was able to make money with him.”

The UFC President was relentless in his words for the YouTuber-turned-Boxer and Espinoza. However, his analysis was shrewd, as he made his reasoning clear in the scenario.

White continued, “That’s not the business I’m in. I’m in a different business than that. I’m in the tough fight business.”

However, in this instance, Espinoza came to Paul‘s aid. After Paul alleged that UFC and White didn’t provide him with any Anderson Silva footage for the promotion.

Espinoza said, “Here, we didn’t get that. It didn’t affect our promotion. It would have been nice to be able use some of his old fight footage. I’m sure Anderson would have appreciated being able to get access to his old fights… made it very clear that they’re hoping that this does not succeed.”
