UFC's Dana White Goes Off On Australian Media… Calling Them The Biggest Pussies

Posted • February 10, 2025: UFC CEO Dana White went off on the media — particularly the Australian media, but also media in the U.S. — in a wild rant early Sunday following a fight card down under. Towards the end of a stunning news conference following the UFC 312 card in Sydney, Australia, White absolutely unleashed on the nation’s press. In particular, White cited an op-ed denouncing New South Wales Premier Chris Mimms for appropriating tax funds to the UFC to stage the event. “You have the biggest pussies I’ve ever seen in the media in my life!” White said. “I saw a story where a guy was like ‘I saw Dana do a podcast with the premier and it physically made me sick.’ Holy fucking shit! You guys have to have the biggest pussies of all time in the media here, just for the record.”

A reporter then asked White if the government tried to keep him from placing American fighter Sean Strickland in the main event Saturday. Earlier in the week, Strickland ripped Australia’s gun laws, and called Australians “English white trash.”
