UFC President Dana White blast Floyd Mayweather




     Dana White fired some slur against Floyd Mayweather on a segment called "Presidential Address".White's topic centered with  Floyd Mayweather's ducking on Manny Pacquiao and his racist tweet against the new NBA Star Jeremy Lin.


Here's the Rant of Dana White pertaining to Floyd.

    "First of all, what he said I think was racist. He's made a couple of racist comments and, yes, Floyd, you're racist with the stuff that you've said. First of all, Jeremy Lin gets all of this credit because he's an Asian player in the NBA that African Americans never get? Yeah. He's getting all this praise because he's an Asian guy playing in the NBA. You say that African Americans don't get it? Really, Kobe Bryant doesn't get any praise? Michael Jordan never got any praise? The list goes on and on of the guys who completely get praised for being great NBA basketball players. Not only can he compete and make it in the NBA, the guy is tearing it up and is breaking records, you knucklehead. OK?White, who managed boxers in the 1990s, ended his tirade by telling Mayweather to "shut up and make the fight."Yes, I run the UFC and all this stuff. I'm a boxing fan and I want to see this fight, too. I know that I speak for millions and millions of other people. Shut up and make the fight, Floyd".

    Ellerbe, the manager of Floy Mayweather response with a statement  after learning of White's rant. "If he keeps on running his mouth, we may decide to give a free seminar to all of the UFC fighters on how the pay-per-view revenue should be distributed. This is typical Dana, who is always prone to ignorant outbursts. He should be the last person to try to judge someone else."

    After White learned about the Ellerbe's reponse to his statement, the UFC President replied a text saying "Just for the record, shut the [expletive] up [because] I wasn't talking to you," White said by text. "I was talking to Floyd. We're doing something amazing. We're building a sport while you guys are destroying one. "
