UFC President Dana White makes a big statement on pro wrestling, says 'I don't watch WWE'

UFC President and CEO Dana White recently made a bold remark about professional wrestling, stating, "I don’t watch WWE." Speaking on the Impaulsive Podcast with Logan Paul, White discussed WrestleMania 41, sharing that while he doesn’t follow the product as a fan, he was impressed by the scale and success of the event from a business perspective.

"Yeah, I was blown away," White said on the podcast. "First of all, I mean, selling out, you know, the Allegiant stadium, at that time, you guys had the biggest gate in Allegiant history, which is huge. I mean, the Super Bowl was there and everything else. We just beat you with Canelo Crawford. Yeah, it's impressive."



Known for his no-nonsense approach, White praised the WWE’s ability to stage such a massive spectacle and draw global attention, noting its impact on the sports entertainment industry. Still, White made it clear that he isn’t a fan of professional wrestling and doesn’t watch WWE.

"I'm not a fan. "I don't watch WWE. I'm into fighting man, that's what I do," White stated. "You know how when you go on Instagram and then you go on your search page? My whole search is like street fights and stuff like that, that's what I'm into."

Despite saying that, White acknowledged his respect for the abilities of WWE Superstars in the ring, including Impaulsive host Paul.

"I respect the athleticism of pro wrestling," White said. I told you when you first started doing it, 'Man, you're a hell of an athlete. You're good.' Yeah, it's impressive to see what these guys do. It's just not my thing."
