Dana White teams up with actor Adam Sandler for new scripted series based on working in UFC offices

The UFC is teaming up with comedy icon Adam Sandler for a new series that will focus on what it’s like to work for the global mixed martial arts enterprise.

With the massive success of Conor McGregor’s Netflix documentary McGregor Forever, it’s no surprise that the UFC would be looking for opportunities to expand their business, and revenue, in the entertainment market. Appearing on The Pat McAfee Show, Dana White revealed that the promotion is currently working with Roku to produce a documentary that he expects to debut later this year.
