UFC president Dana White was unhappy about a journalist suggesting he should co-promote a PFL fight
Transcript
00:00 Is there an opportunity for you to cross promote with the PFL for say a Jones-Ninganou fight
00:05 and is there anything specifically stopping that from happening?
00:09 Is there any way to stop it from happening?
00:11 Is there anything that's stopping that specific fight or a specific cross promotion with the
00:16 PFL from happening?
00:17 No, I'm not interested in that.
00:19 We tried to make that fight.
00:21 They didn't want to do it and it's done.
00:25 He doesn't fight here anymore.
00:26 I'm not interested.
00:27 So no fights with the PFL just in general?
00:30 Should I?
00:31 Possibly.
00:32 We've got one, two, and three.
00:35 They can't sell a f***ing gate.
00:39 Talk to me.
00:40 Dana, I just...
00:41 It's a stupid question, but go ahead.
00:45 Talk to me.
00:46 Why would I do that?
00:47 I tried to make the fight here.
00:49 They didn't want to do it, but I should co-promote with a Bellator or a PFL?
01:02 Why should I do that?
01:03 Talk to me.
01:04 I guess it's just a partnership with ESPN or anything like that just in general with
01:08 just co-promoting at MMA to make MMA fans happy just for everyone to be involved with
01:13 each other.
01:17 Because of ESPN?
01:19 As a partnership, yes.
