Dana White Accused of “Publicity Stunt” After Storming Out of Howie Mandel’s Show In Controversial Clip

Dana White has been on a roll. The CEO of UFC has made several public appearances in the past week. However, he probably reached a saturation point and made it very evident. Recently, on the 164th episode of “Howie Mandel Does Stuff”, White sat down with the Canadian comedian, but not for long. Right after the host gave an introduction, White abruptly left.

Before leaving, he said he was tired of doing one podcast after another and felt it was necessary. Witnessing this, the comment section erupted with speculations about how and why such an incident would have happened.

Fans are left confused as Dana White storms out of a podcast

A post was made by @HappyPunch, which shared a snippet of the podcast in which White gets up and leaves, had a caption that read, “Dana White walked off Howie Mandel’s podcast in the first 30 seconds.” Here is how the fans reacted to this news. One fan questioned as to why White showed up in the first place if he was tired.

Meanwhile, one fan thought White left because he did not like the vibe of the podcast.

Along similar lines, another fan thought White left for the same reason.

However, on the contrary, one fan enjoyed it through and through.

Moreover, one fan wondered why the podcast even existed in the first place.

However, on the contrary, one fan argued that it was in fact an act. The fan also called it a “publicity stunt.”

Last but not least, one fan felt the need to make a satirical joke about it.

This incident has left fans divided. Each person has their perspective on it. However, it’s worth noting that this isn’t the only time he has rejected something due to being over-exhausted. Let us look at another such instance.

A “tired” White gives up

Dana White is usually seen present in attendance for the massive UFC cards—if not all. However, back in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, White refused to attend the Robert Whittaker vs. Darren Till UFC Fight Night 174 event. This is because he was trying to put up fights during a global lockdown and it was an arduous task, to say the least. Subsequently, he was overworked and refused to be present at the Abu Dhabi event.

He said, “I am so tired. It has been incredible. Nobody does it like Abu Dhabi.” He added, “This is a really beautiful place to come with so many cool things we are in the safety zone and what they were able to do for us here is beyond incredible.”
