Dana White went off on a tangent during his post-fight press conference at UFC Kansas City.
After watching Ian Garry survive a late scare to beat Carol Prates in the main event, the UFC boss fielded questions from assembled media members at the T-Mobile Center on Saturday night.
Naturally, he provided a major update on Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall and dropped some other fight news.
However, Dana White also told a wild story about the time he got on the back of a bull a decade ago.
Dana White recalls ‘dumbest’ thing he’s done
White is a massive fan of bull riding, who has recently begun acquiring bovines for competition.
On Thursday, ‘Dana White’s Playmate’ was disqualified for bucking too early and knocking out its rider.
The MMA mogul reflected on the incident before recalling the time he got on the back of a bull.
“Well, the guy who handles all my bulls is my partner, Dennis Davis,” White said when asked what he’ll do to ensure his bull puts on a better performance in his next outing.
“So, I’ll let him figure that out, but he was mean and nasty, that’s why we got him. So yeah, thank God that kid was all right.
“I rode a bull back in 2015, which is what got me into this. It’s one of the dumbest things that I’ve ever done. But you know when they strap your hand in, you go like this [raises hand] to let them know that you’re ready to go and they open the gate.
“I remember as we were getting in and they’re strapping my hand to the bull and I’m thinking, ‘Now I have to set my mind to raise my hand’. But the bull starts smashing your legs against the bars, so you can’t lift your hand fast enough.
“That is a rough, nasty sport. Love it.”
Dana White confirms UFC title fight
White also used his time in front of the cameras to clear up some bull doing the rounds on social media.
Last week, Dricus du Pless shut down ‘untrue’ rumors about him suffering a serious injury in training.
Unfortunately, many fight fans had already gotten upset about his proposed middleweight title defense against Khamzat Chimaev being called off – but White confirmed the UFC title fight everyone wants to see is official
“The du Plessis vs. Khamzat fight, it’s happening,” he said.
“It’s just not happening International Fight Week
“That fight’s done.”
