Dana White: Giving fighters ‘healthcare forever’ would be ‘pretty f—ng crazy’

UFC president Dana White drew some attention last week when he backtracked on his statements about long-term fighter health benefits. From initially saying it would happen “soon” during an Instagram Q&A, he corrected himself stating he “responded to the wrong guy.”
