“It Is an Embarrassment That Dana…”: Former UFC Official Blasts $500M Worth Dana White Over Promoting “Gimmick Fight” Between Billionaire CEOs Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg

It seems Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk have taken their verbal sparring to a whole new level, poised to settle their differences in the most unexpected arena yet – the MMA cage. What initially seemed like an online beef has taken a surprising turn, with Musk challenging Zuckerberg to a physical showdown.

To the surprise of many, Zuckerberg accepted the challenge in pure Khabib Nurmagomedov fashion. As the buzz around the potential bout grew, UFC president Dana White stepped into the spotlight. White has confirmed the seriousness of both billionaires stepping inside the cage. The 53-year-old seems keen on making this fight happen, but not everyone seems excited about this bout.

Ex-UFC referee John McCarthy bashes Dana White for wanting to make Musk vs. Zuckerberg happen

Some time ago, the UFC President had shown reservations about making a “gimmick fight” happen in the UFC. However, many are claiming that Musk vs. Zuckerberg is nothing less than a gimmick fight. Former UFC referee John McCarthy expressed his disdain for White’s apparent change of heart regarding gimmick fights in his recent podcast.

“How long ago was it that f*cking Dana came out saying we don’t do gimmick fights? Dana White talks one way in one week and then he’s gonna switch. Dana’s gonna do what Dana can make money at.”
