Dana White rips ‘insane call’ by referee at UFC Vegas 68, claims he paid Doo Ho Choi his win money

Power Slap CEO Dana White spoke to reporters after this weekend’s UFC Vegas 68 event. During that media scrum, White discussed the majority draw between Choi Doo-ho and Kyle Nelson.

Choi versus Nelson was an entertaining bout, with both men landing heavy and often. It appeared as though Choi, who is known for his durability, was able to better withstand the punishment and fire back with greater volume and veracity. However, in the third Choi was judged to have landed an illegal headbutt, intentionally, on Nelson by referee Chris Tognoni and a video replay official. This lead to a one point deduction to Choi.
