Expensive cars, luxurious villas, and delicious food are a part of his everyday life. However, one more thing that interests the UFC head honcho the most is sneakers. White has a huge collection of sneakers and also wears them during his UFC appearances.
Recently, the El Presidente went sneaker shopping in Las vegas with Joe La Puma of Complex. White, in the video, talked about his shoe collection, deals, and other various stuff.
During the conversation, La Puma told White that the American professional basketball player Kevin Durant has infamously said Jordan lows are the best shows. And agreeing to the statement, White replied, “I like low shoes, yeah. I have highs, but I mostly wear lows.”

However, ‘The Problem Child’ has never received a response from either McGregor or White regarding the fight. But this isn’t stopping the Ohio native from going after them. He has repeatedly taken a dig at ‘The Notorious’ and UFC president.
Dana – Since you like me now, how about a 1 fight UFC deal to fight Conor.
If I win, you agree to my UFC fighter pay and healthcare proposal.
If I lose I donate my entire purse to all UFC fighters who make less than $50K a fight and never mention UFC again
Deal?
