White must’ve been out of his head tired, like the kind of tired that comes after a weeklong bender on fun Middle Eastern psychotropics. Either he or Masvidal will walk out of New York with a belt created in the spirit of Jules from “Pulp Fiction.”Īnd that’s what this news felt like: pulp freaking fiction. Not only is the UFC’s undernourished stepson Nate Diaz getting exactly what he asked for after beating Anthony Pettis at UFC 241, he is having a figment of his imagination cut from the pot smoke and tailored to fit around somebody’s waist. It’ll be the Baddest Mother Fucker belt, or the BFM title (stylized with a hashtag in some regions). With no actual title on the line.Īlthough, get this: There will be a title on the line.
Where Joe Frazier first beat Muhammad Ali. The fight will happen where Big Fights happen. Just a couple of baddies coming together to see if they can move a six-ton needle. Sleeping is for dudes who don’t run $4 billion companies and have snow shipped in for Christmas.Īnyway, catching him in this loopy state actually paid off at some point, because on the day that Khabib Nurmagomedov smeshed Dustin Poirier to unify the lightweight title, the UFC announced that Nate Diaz would headline UFC 244 at Madison Square Garden against the Flamingo Kid himself, Jorge Masvidal. Dana White sleeps? Seems an incredibly vulnerable thing to do for a guy whose pockets run so deep. When asked who’s going to be doing what after UFC 242, he said he was sure he didn’t know, but that his plan was to fly home and sleep for like two days and then figure it all “that shit” out. Dana White said he was literally “fried” this weekend, not because of the 120-degree heat in Abu Dhabi or that the fights blew his mind, but because he was on the last legs of a global trot that began in China the previous week.
