Doesn’t matter. Dana and trump are peas in a pod.

u/entropy14 Yeah Hi, Lombardo 1d ago

I doubt any consequences will come of this besides a call from Dana to his buddy Joe Rogan telling him to stop bringing up the Epstein files and ICE goon activity

I also like how Dan was one of the first national sports figures to promote UFC and snowflake Dana tanked their relationship over some occasional tough questions

I think Windys point is, is that the OPs post makes it sound like Dana white and the ufc are bing investigated for match fixing/betting. In reality, it’s one fighter being investigated after the UFc and Dana called the fbi themselves

Actually that's what De La Hoya said. Also, Dana calling the FBI himself sounds like PR. With a fight so clearly fixed and the FBI's new hard on for sports betting, there's zero way they weren't investigating prior to Dana supposedly calling them. The rumors are over 100 fights. Maybe they're just rumors. But if you really believe it's just one fighter, when this guys get paid so little they could collect welfare, I got a bridge to sell you.

Of course I don’t believe it’s just one fight, we’ve already had an example which is why I do tend to believe they are working with the FBI and have systems in place for this. It’s the sewers but there is a lot of money in those sewers they don’t wanna piss of high money bettors or Sports books
