UFC, Endeavor and ESPN put business before morals when it comes to Dana White

It’s been seven days since TMZ released the video of UFC president Dana White slapping his wife. During that time, UFC, it’s parent company Endeavor, and broadcast partner ESPN have combined to offer zero comments.

The silence of those parties shows that something has changed since 2014, when White spoke about domestic violence incidents inside the UFC and said, “Of course, the way we always react is morally first, then the business second.”

White made that comment after then-NFL player Ray Rice was shown on hotel security video hitting his then-fiancée, Janay Palmer.
