UFC CEO Dana White has already made some major fight announcements for UFC 300. But he promised to announce more fights in hopes of “destroying” 2024. However, White’s recent announcement about a competition other than the UFC has led fans to call out the UFC’s head honcho as they felt disappointed by the 54-year-old.
The card for UFC 300 is looking great at the moment. Some of the big names on the card are Dustin Poirier, Charles Oliveira, Jiri Prochazka, and Aljamain Sterling, just to name a few. The fans were waiting for more fight announcements, but Dana White threw a curveball right at them. Let’s see what the UFC CEO did.

Hall of Famer Donald Cerrone recently wrapped up his UFC career. He had an amazing journey competing inside the Octagon as he closed that chapter of his life. Meanwhile, little did fans know that ‘Cowboy’ also has a passion for bull riding. Dana White shared a video on his social media handles that Cerrone will be making his PBR debut in May.

“I own a bull. His name is Twisted Steel, and he bucks in the PBR,” said Dana White. “This last weekend, he was bucking at MSG. ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone was there. ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone called him out… I accept your challenge.” The UFC CEO even claimed that he is also willing to donate money to the charity of ‘Cowboy’s choice – $50,000 to attempt and $100,000 if he can last 8 seconds. It seems like Donald Cerrone will now test the waters in bull-riding against his former employer’s bull. Although this news was an exciting one for White, it did not go down well with the fans. Let’s see what they had to say.
Fans sound off on the UFC CEO for lack of UFC 300 announcements
The fans were clearly not happy with Dana White. They were deceived last time when the UFC CEO and social media influencer Nina Marie-Daniele announced Power Slap 2 instead of announcing UFC 300 fights. Now, White has got them again as many fans expressed their disappointment, while continuing to ask for more fights.
“Yo I thought we were getting 300 announcements td”
“Give us ufc 300 fights already”
“If this is the announcement we are disappointed”
Some fans also pointed out that Dana White had promised to announce more UFC fighters. Instead, he announced something that was not even related to the sport. They are hoping that White makes up with big fights for UFC 300 after disappointing them with the PBR update.
“Didn’t you say you were going to announce fights today after you made those 2 announcements the other day”
“Dana there better be some real announcements coming imminently today after this BS you just posted”
The fans have also taken the opportunity to tell Dana White that he must not deceive UFC fans with such misleading announcements.
