UFC President White says he has no political ambitions — TMZ
Dana White noted that he is "pretty busy right now" and holds multiple positions
NEW YORK, November 10. /TASS/. Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) President Dana White said ahead of a meeting with US President Donald Trump that he has absolutely no political ambitions.
"I’ve said this many times before, and I’ll say it again: I have no political ambitions <...> Less than zero," he told TMZ, noting that he is "pretty busy right now" and holds multiple positions.
According to White, one of the goals of his upcoming meeting with Trump is to have the US president sign a unique collectible trading card commemorating the UFC Freedom 250 event held at the White House this summer.
The UFC president also said he received a phone call from Trump after the US leader published a post offering him a job at the White House. "He called me after that," White noted.
Over the weekend, Trump wrote on Truth Social that he had offered White the position of White House press secretary. Trump also proposed appointing Russian fighters Islam Makhachev and Khabib Nurmagomedov as White’s assistants if he accepted the new position. The US president subsequently told reporters that his proposal was "just a joke."
