So much respect for Dana White. I ran into him at one of the Megaclubs in Las Vegas maybe 9 or 10 years ago when the UFC had already found massive success. Told him how I am a local DJ but have been a diehard fan since that first season of Ultimate Fighter. He let me come to his VIP table and pour a drink from his bottle and we chatted for a few minutes. He thanked me as a fan and then I realized that his security was going to do their jobs and tell me to keep it pushin'. So I read the room and moved along before it got awkward. Either way that is way more than I would expect from any public figure or celebrity in that situation. Dude keeps receipts whether that is supporting their vision with the UFC or working against him. I'm grateful for his hard work and so many amazing memories of great fights.
cool how you knew when to split, most do not. Special moment. I had one with Garth Brooks when he was a mega-success, and he gave me a few moments but the room started to fill up and I asked for a pic and then split. Funny, I was also a local DJ at a country-western club and told him so it gave me some cred. Celebs arent bad people, but they have so many fans and so much to deal with but these moments do happen and its always awesome when they do, just know when to say when and you did!
Incredible how comfortable you made him feel to open up like that. Great, yet humble display of empathy and honest friendship. Thank you, I've learned a lot.
Oh my, you just described Woke! Is White into that "Q" BS? And White says Trump is a Squared away guy? So White is ok with Serial Liars who have 18 Sexual Misconduct Suits he has settled with at least One that's with a 16 year old female, how many Bankruptcy's ? Six? How many of his Cabinet members and Administration Officials now have a Criminal Records for carrying out DJ Trump's orders? 11 How many Attorneys who worked for Trump have been Sanctioned or Disbarred? 18 for following Trump's orders! That's 29 Professional people who got into trouble with the law for listening to Trump! And I'll bet many of you are saying, even screaming by now that Trump is losing ground as fast as Putin! All those people are anti Labor and all of them despise Labor that say: Living Wage! Fast Fact; from late 1930's until the 1970's held 2/3'rds of the World's Gold Billions. Until the series of Billionaires tax cuts pushed by Republicans falsely claiming our collected revenue would rise considerably, paying for the Revenue cut plus much more! Trump Lied (Surprise Surprise, the Fat Man Lied!) Having super wealthy people in our Country does not make us a wealthy Country especially when those wealthy Elites, I'm referring to the Moochie Republican Billionaires. When we have a large Middle Class that not only pays a lot in income taxes, but they engage with the economy at its core level. When you have a large Middle Class that has good income they will spend a lot, fairly new cars as well as hobbies that Poor "middle classers" like we currently have just do not have the money for hobbies, new cars and that new pool y'all have saved for for so long they struggle to just cover the Billionaire created Inflation. Listen, if we have inflation but at the same time we have Billionaires reporting record breaking Profits, RECORD BREAKING PROFITS! So how do we get back to the beautiful Economy we had when we taxed the Wealthy and Paid or Working Class Workers a living Wage! BTW, that term is considered A Socialist indicator/Identifier; A Living wage!
Can we all just take a mo to appreciate big boys interview style? Hes fast, funny and always maintains focus on the interviewee. honestly one of the best interviewers around rn.
DANA is a Legend. There is no UFC without Dana. Loyal friend right there and just a real due. Big Boy the part you mentioned you text him during the big fights and how he responds was cool lol.
Big Boy is such a masterful interviewer. He asks great questions at the perfect time and then sits back and let’s his guest be free and answer with such amazing detail because they are comfortable. This is great!
37:20 Goosebumps. What a great and real speech, especially in the position that he was in. "What should I say??" Say why are you here and why you're giving a speech for him.
hearing the in-depth story of his success is beyond amazing. There’s nothing that compares to the feeling you get when the timing and stars align in your favor.
He's the best of a group known for shady business dealings? Yes, look at all the promoters as far back as you want to Go, it's all Shady, look at Suge Knight, Don King, they're all full of Shit
Great interview. You made Dana seem human with your educated questions. Dana was great, but your interaction with him made this an actual exercise of the history of the UFC. Well done, sir. Insightful questions, allowing Dana to fully speak, and simply interjecting to move along or focus the interview are all things proper journalists should endeavor to do.
I knew about how him and the Fertita brothers bought the UFC and how they built it up to where it was huge and they sold it for over 2 BILLION dollars!! But this is a fantastic interview!! What a crazy story!
Man, I've been a fan of big boy for years now. He's a legend, I stopped following him for awhile now but this interview brought me back. All I do is work, train at a Muay Thai gym, and bet on boxing, MMA, and foot ball. I hope he interviews a few UFC fighters. He needs to get Sean Strikland on his channel since he just whooped on izzy

Super good interview . I’ve heard Dana’s story multiple times but not in depth like this. You asked all the right questions that I was thinking to myself while watching
Not too many interviews this long that I can sit through, but this one I am just riveted. I'll probably listen to it a couple more times. It's not only a great motivational story but Dana tells it well.
Swear to God I could listen to Dana talk all day. Love this mf. What a God damn animal and also a hell of a genuine dude. Met him in Houston and watched him walk from inside a bar and take pictures and shake hands with over 100 people waiting in line. Mad respect for this dude.
This is one of the greatest interviews i have ever seen , if anyone wanted to know anything about how hard work , commitment and building on opportunities leads to success this is it ..! macro economics 101 for all ...! Kudos to Dana White ..!!!
Even with all that Dana has accomplished, all the influence he has, all the lives he has changed, the one person he is most affected by, and never got the approval or acceptance from was his own flesh and blood, his father. It is probably what has subconsciously motivated him his entire life. At 8:50, you can see the pain and hurt it still brings talking about it. Your father is the most important male figure in your life, and their disregard or rejection of you, runs the deepest. That to me was the most telling thing in this entire amazing interview I got. Probably be the last thing he thinks of when he passes away, that his own father didnt really want his kids. I know, my pops was the same.
Listening to this just made my whole being just want to conquer the world, whatever that means. Thank you Dana and thank you big boy for this interview. It made my day. ( Mental health is real and it's been kicking my ass)
1:00:49 Tyson was returning after a suspension for biting a piece of his opponent's ear off. Did anyone expect the commentators to be cheerleading him like the ufc dorks do?? If that had happened in the octagon, White would ban the fighter for life. He's full of it.
Dana is one of the coolest mofos around, hands down, down to earth, ruff edges in all the right places, and an inspiration for anyone at the bottom, wanting to go to the top in life, legend.
Great interview, love combat sports... but I don't get powerslap... how is it not just signing up to get a concussion? In other combat sports, your skills can save you from a concussion, but in power slap it seems guaranteed
This may have been one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. Completely changed my view of Dana I already knew I liked him but getting to know him closer I love him
What he didn't say was one of the fertitta was on the nevada athletic commission that turned down approving mma as a sport in Nevada when the original owner had but it got approved once they bought it
@stephenbartlett1167 he runs the business he has to approve all sponsors n make deals with the fighter's I believe dana deals with fighter's who are huge draws such as jon jones or izzy
Fair play what a amazing interview....Dana plz plz plz put out a autobiography....your a legend and you enriched the lives of so many fans by fighting for the sport the world now loves ❤️
I remember being hooked on that 1st season of The Ultimate Fighter, I was in High School at the time working my 1st job, coming home relaxing and watching some ultimate fighter. Been watching the UFC ever since.
Dana White is the Epitome of the American Dream. That you can start from nothing, have a Millionaire Friend buy you a million dollar business and turn it into a Multi Billion Dollar Franchise and New International Mega Sport. Anyone can do that! ?
"I thrive on chaos". Dana in his own words. Very revealing conversation. He's one of the best incarnation of a business man of today's unruly capitalism. Excellent interview.
Dana is motivational dude. He talked about all the connections with people that he had and ran into to help get him where he's at and that didn't even include Rogan. The UFC is Dana.

@@AmericanPieInThailandmust be a DJ thing
Why, because his buddies were rich and made him rich he is smart but without them, he wouldn’t have been nowhere where he is now
Dana's story is unbelievable and no matter how you feel about him....our favorite sport looks very different without him.
Who feels a way about Dana? What has he done negatively? Serious questions
Ya no juice and respectful fighters.he will fire your ass even if your winning .cause he thanks you got to act like ali to sell fights.
That sport sells it's self dam
KEEP GEG ON HIS LECHE DEEP IN Mr USED
Why is this a community
Incredible how comfortable you made him feel to open up like that.
Great, yet humble display of empathy and honest friendship.
Thank you, I've learned a lot.
he's told this story before.. still cool to listen to though.
Yes Sir. This was the best Dana white interview I have seen. The right questions are key.
They've been friends for decades so not that hard.
Oh my, you just described Woke!

I think it's for the TikTok generation.
This may have been one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. Completely changed my view of Dana I already knew I liked him but getting to know him closer I love him
What he didn't say was one of the fertitta was on the nevada athletic commission that turned down approving mma as a sport in Nevada when the original owner had but it got approved once they bought it
A real comment. I was beginning to think this was the Dana White fan club page. 👏
@joshuadoughty dana is great at doing what he does but dana has also never cared about the fans or the fighters he only cares about money period
@@chindub6563I’m not being sarcastic, but I’d like to know exactly what it is that he does? Personally, I think he’s just a spokesman
@stephenbartlett1167 he runs the business he has to approve all sponsors n make deals with the fighter's I believe dana deals with fighter's who are huge draws such as jon jones or izzy
The votes of the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) members are not public. You're making shit up.
Big Up, Sir Big Boy!
Need to do more of these types of interviews biG🎉. Adapt my g 🎉🎉🎉
WE NEED A Dana White x UFC BIOPIC!!!
Man, this made want to do more and really work on things that I have visions on. Will look back at this years from now. Cheers!
Great interview. Dana is proof. Hard work will get you places. Knowing millionaires helps too 😂
Don’t fighters work hard?
@@stephenbartlett1167 yes, but it's a business. They know b4 hand what they're getting paid. Their choice.
@@Vern9000 Tell that to a judge and jury
okay now do Joe ROgan
I did not expect from the thumbnail! this was great! learnt so much about life hacks! thanks BIG BOIIIIIIIIIII
Big Boy definitely has one of the best interview style and technique out there. Another really interesting episode.
Amazing interview. Completely inspirational.
Great fucken interview Big Boy I swear this is one of my favorite interview ever in RUclips history no bullshit I love this show keep it going BIG BOY
Excellent Interview!! 👏
Fair play what a amazing interview....Dana plz plz plz put out a autobiography....your a legend and you enriched the lives of so many fans by fighting for the sport the world now loves ❤️
I remember being hooked on that 1st season of The Ultimate Fighter, I was in High School at the time working my 1st job, coming home relaxing and watching some ultimate fighter. Been watching the UFC ever since.
Dana white is something else....
...?
The best dana white interview on the internet. Easy.
Dana's one smart dude.
Amazing interview! Thanks! A lot of insights!
How did randy try to screw over the ufc ? Because he wanted to keep his personal rights
I think he was trying to unionize the fighters. Would've killed their talent pool I'm guessing.
Dana White is the Epitome of the American Dream. That you can start from nothing, have a Millionaire Friend buy you a million dollar business and turn it into a Multi Billion Dollar Franchise and New International Mega Sport. Anyone can do that! ?
💯 Get yourself around winners. It's probably the most important thing you can do, right next to developing a valuable skill set.
I think the Fertitta bros were billionaires
He is so spot on on the boxing commentary. It's unbelievable
Love Dana, he is just a real dude and I'm happy for all his success and Big-Boy is just fucking awsome, hope I can meet both guys one day.
👏 This was a Great Interview Big Boi & Dana 👍💯
I’m not proud of my fellow fan base but I’m definitely proud of what Dana has accomplished
Why do you say that buddy?
@@Youngbloodz33 in regards to what ?
Incredible interview 💯🤘🤘
TRUMP 2024. LET'S GO BRANDON!
Let’s fucking go
Hell yeah!!
Amen Brother!!!
Not if dead ppl are allowed to vote again
The future President will pardon him@population-_-420
Wholesome interview!
Dana, a living legend.
Very inspiring, great work.
dude this was a solid interview love it
Love Dana. Been a fan of ufc since day one. Feel old because I can't keep up with all the new fighters. The sport has changed so much. Still love it.
Great interview
! 😀🙏
"I thrive on chaos". Dana in his own words. Very revealing conversation.
He's one of the best incarnation of a business man of today's unruly capitalism.
Excellent interview.
Great interview Big!
Amazing podcast!
Great video! Thanks!
Dana is motivational dude. He talked about all the connections with people that he had and ran into to help get him where he's at and that didn't even include Rogan. The UFC is Dana.
Tennis is global. Come on Dana! You still da man
5 AM, I clicked the link. I've been glued to the screen ever since. 😁
Great interview 👍👌
