Amid UFC Stars Conor McGregor and Israel Adesanya’s Documentaries, Dana White Makes His Stance Clear About His Own Venture

After the success of Conor McGregor: Notorious, the Irishman is back with Netflix’s McGregor Forever, a docuseries chronicling the last four fights of the UFC icon. On the other hand, the current UFC Middleweight kingpin, Israel Adesanya is also preparing the release of his own documentary, titled Stylebender. Although Adesanya’s silver screen release is set for June 11, McGregor’s second outing has already started creating hype among the UFC audience. The success of the documentary, however, has also brought a few questions to light.

Looking at the fanfare created by McGregor Forever and the speculations about the upcoming Stylebender, a number of UFC followers may have thought that other UFC personalities will follow Conor McGregor and Izzy’s path. UFC boss, Dana White,  was the first one to receive a question about it. The strong bond between McGregor and White may have propelled a lot of fans to believe that the UFC supremo himself will be the first one to follow in the fighter’s steps.

Dana White shut down the possibilities of his own Netflix documentary

Among many other questions at the post-UFC Vegas 73 press conference, White was also questioned about his own Netflix documentary. The reporter asked, “McGregor’s documentary came out this week. I’m just curious when can we expect your Netflix documentary?”

White was seemingly amused at this question as he laughed briefly before answering it. He answered, “Never. I’m not into that kind of stuff”. The UFC supremo also said that he had received numerous offers for such ventures which would highlight his journey. He revealed, “Believe me, I get offers for all kinds of books and this and that. But, I’m not interested in that kind of stuff at all.”

White also implied that fight promotion was his only interest, and he wanted to stay fully committed to it. He said, “This is what I do, this is what I like to do and I’ll literally never do any of that stuff.”

The UFC boss probably had his own reasons for never wishing to put his life before the public eyes. Many would agree, however, that these are still the early days of MMA-related documentaries. Things might change drastically with time, and perhaps audiences may be delighted with a Dana White documentary down the line.

Can Dana White’s decision change in the future?

Multiple documentaries have been created based on the lives of sportspersons. From the coveted Michael Jordan documentary, ‘The Last Dance‘ to ‘Mike Tyson: The Undisputed Truth’. Documentaries have been a popular medium for fans to understand and know about a few unrevealed happenings in their beloved personality’s lives.
