Dan Ige revealed that his mom faced a sorrowful incident, and he asked for help from none other than UFC boss Dana White.

In his latest Instagram post, Dan Ige shared how someone stole his mother’s car and that too during Mother’s Day, which turned out to be shocking for the American mixed martial artist. He uploaded a picture of his mother standing beside the white Hyundai car, and the caption read, Somebody stole my mom’s car last night on Mother’s Day while she was working at Red Rock Casino. They wouldn’t let her check security cameras. If anyone has any information, please contact me. Please reshare this if you can.”

He even tagged White in the comments section so that the head honcho could help him in some way. Ige, also known as 50K, has always been a family man and loves his parents, wife, and children, who mean the world to him. With an estimated net worth of $1 million, the athlete requested his fans and the CEO to assist his mother.
