As 2024 comes to a close, it’s been an unforgettable year for fight fans, whether you’re passionate about boxing, MMA, or the thrilling crossover between both. As we approach 2025 on December 31st, excitement builds for the upcoming UFC pay-per-views. But no transition into the new year is complete without a celebration! While many are living it up in style, including UFC megastar Conor McGregor, who has been spotted enjoying time with his family on social media, UFC CEO Dana White remains an enigma.

Known for keeping his personal life under wraps, Dana has kept fans guessing about how he plans to spend New Year’s Eve. So, what might the UFC president have in store for this year’s celebration? We have asked AI to predict Dana White’s New Year 2025 plans. Let’s take a look at the possibilities.

In a world where most people readily share every detail of their lives on social media, Dana White stands apart. Known for straightforward and simple greetings like “What’s up, everybody?” and his focus on UFC announcements, White keeps his personal life tightly under wraps, away from prying eyes. The UFC boss has no desire to broadcast every moment of his life, choosing instead to protect his privacy. This makes a “private celebration” with his family the most likely way he might choose to usher in the New Year, reflecting the famous quote of Vito Corleone from The Godfather: “A man who doesn’t spend time with his family can never be a real man.”

This sentiment aligns perfectly with Dana White’s lifestyle, where family remains at the center of his world. His wife Anna and their children—sons Dana III and Aidan, and daughter Savannah—are his top priority. Savannah, like her brothers, is also actively involved in sports. With such a close-knit family, it’s possible that Dana and Anna White will welcome the New Year surrounded by their loved ones. Now, let’s move on to explore another potential way they might celebrate the start of 2025.

2. Luxurious Party

When it comes to extravagant parties, the name that comes to mind is Conor McGregor. But Dana White, his employer, is well ahead of the game. This was evident back in 2018 when Dana hosted a $1 million party for his son’s 16th birthday on the Las Vegas Strip—a celebration he himself called “the best party I’ve ever been to in my life.”

And why wouldn’t it be? The year 2024 has been a remarkable one for both Dana White and the UFC. With a series of highly successful fight cards, the UFC has continued to captivate fans and drive massive engagement. UFC pay-per-views have become major events, helping the organization reach an astounding $1 billion in revenue. This impressive feat has undeniably boosted Dana White’s financial success while further cementing promotion’s dominance in combat sports. Furthermore, with Jon Jones back in the cage, it’s clear that the head honcho’s premier MMA promotion is set to soar to even greater heights.

3. Travel

It’s been a whirlwind year for Dana White, who worked relentlessly throughout 2024 to ensure the success of UFC events. His schedule became even more demanding because of his active involvement in supporting his longtime friend and associate, Donald Trump. The UFC boss remained a staunch ally of Trump, standing by him until the election results were announced. Even when public opinion soured after Trump’s conviction related to the Capitol attack, Dana White continued to back him, leveraging UFC’s reputation to support Trump’s challenge for the White House.

Now that the election season has concluded, Dana White has announced he is stepping away from the fray, even quoting that he doesn’t like being involved with politics or politicians. With UFC taking a break since December 14, the next event isn’t until January 18—nearly a month’s gap. Currently, the head honcho’s whereabouts remain a mystery to the public, but it’s highly likely that he will spend New Year’s with his wife, possibly in a warmer destination like the Bahamas or Hawaii, given the cold temperatures during winters in Las Vegas, Nevada.

4. UFC-Related Event

If there were ever an opportunity to host a UFC promotion in “hell,” the UFC head honcho would likely not hesitate to strike a deal with the “devil.” While that may sound humorous, a look at Dana White’s 2024 schedule reveals a globetrotting lifestyle. From Canada to Abu Dhabi, the holy land of Saudi Arabia, Macau, and finally UFC Tampa, Florida, Dana White’s passion for travel, and taking is promotion across boundaries is evident. Yet, one destination still remains on his list: South Korea.

Earlier this month, Dana White had planned to visit South Korea to attend an MMA Z-Fight Night event organized by former UFC contender The Korean Zombie. However, the event was delayed due to the declaration of martial law aimed at curbing “anti-state” sentiments. Originally scheduled for December 4, the event was rescheduled to December 14. Now that martial law has been lifted, South Korea may still be a potential destination for the UFC president’s future work-related trips.

5. Charity or Community Engagement

Predicting the actions of a businessman like Dana White may seem unlikely, but it’s certainly not impossible. The UFC boss is a visionary, committed to shaping the future by focusing on the youth—the next generation of our society. He has dedicated himself to helping children steer away from the dangers of crime and towards brighter, more positive futures. One of his most notable initiatives, the UFC Performance Institute, has already made a significant impact in countries like China, and now, Dana White is looking to expand these efforts into places like Mexico, where d-ug c-rtels and crime have drawn many children into dangerous paths.

Dana White’s goal is to pull these kids off the streets and offer them a chance at a better life through training programs. He shared his vision titled, “Mike Tyson method“ earlier this year in an ESPN MMA interview, stating, “I want to take kids off the streets. I want the kids that are in the streets and have nothing to look forward to, to come to the PI and learn how to train, how to do jiu-jitsu, how to do muay thai, and learn many other skills. Not all these kids are going to grow up and become fighters, but they will become coaches, or they will find a way to contribute to the sport.”
