Dana White's Verbal Thrashing of Sherdog Reporter Lorreta Hunt


EMBED-Dana Whites Fight Night 18 video blog - Watch more free videos
In his UFC Fight Night 18 Video Blog Dana White uses the entire last 3 minutes to lay a seriously brutal, verbal smackdown on Sherdog writer Lorreta Hunt. Dana was unhappy with an article that Hunt wrote on Sherdog.com, in which the writer accused the UFC and Dana White of conspiring to ban fighter agents and managers from the backstage areas, in order to gain influence over the fighters. Dana retaliated in his Fight Night 18 Vlog using profanity to describe both Lorreta Hunt's article as well as her unidentified source.

The Video Blog including the 3 minute tirade on Lorreta Hunt was originally posted on the UFC Youtube page but has since been removed. Yahoo sports as well as Fox sports have picked up on the story and negative fallout from Dana's tirade including a gay slur could be bad for the UFC's image, as well as for the outspoken UFC president.

Here is the link to the Lorreta Hunt article that got Dana so heated.
