DANA WHITE PRESIDENT, ULTIMATE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP (UFC) TUESDAY
Dana White is the president and business visionary behind the success of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the fastest growing sports organization in the world and the world’s leading promoter of mixed martial arts competition. White and his business partners recently sold ownership of UFC for a reported $4 billion, which is believed to be the most expensive sale of a sports organization in history. A native New Englander, White’s passion to succeed led him from a job as a hotel valet into the world of sport fighting as a boxer, trainer, manager, and ultimately promoter of fights in 175 countries. UFC promoted fights have reached over one billion households. A self-described political independent, White has expressed his gratitude to Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump for his own business acumen in helping the UFC succeed by hosting once-controversial mixed martial arts competitions at his Trump Taj Mahal casino property when other venues shunned the sport.
