Dana White has threatened UFC fans who may illegally watch UFC events in 2021 — this and much more on Tuesday's social media roundup.
Dana White threatens people who may illegally stream or watch UFC events
One thing which the sports and combat sports industry specifically has suffered from in recent years is people watching events illegally. Whether it is boxing, MMA, or any other popular sports illegal streams are always out there and Dana White has had enough.
Dana White uploaded a trailer that promoted the UFC 257 main event of Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier, in the comment section, somebody commented saying, "Can't wait to pirate the f**k out of this, thanks Dana, I'm excited." Dana then responded to the man and replied in typical Dana fashion saying "And I can't wait to catch you! Got a surprise for you mother fuckers this year." It seems like Dana and the UFC will set out to stop having their events illegally streamed in 2021.
