Answering a fan's question about fighter pay being a prominent issue in the UFC, White responded in defense of the company:"Listen, there aren't too many things you could talk s*** about the UFC, if you look at what we've done with the business in the last 22 years, it's incredible. Never been done ever, the things that we've done in the fight business. You always have to have something to b***h about, I guess."He then touched specifically on the topic of fighter pay and dismissed any potential changes in that regard:"Fighters always want to make more money. Boxing is absolutely been destroyed because of money and all things that go on. It's never gonna happen while I'm here. Believe me, these guys get paid what they're supposed to get paid. They eat what they kill. They get a percentage of the pay-per-view buys and the money is spread out amongst all the fighters."White stated that fair pay was the norm in the UFC and equality was maintained amongst the fighter roster. He also explained how the promotion's commercial success is directly proportionate to what fighters earn.The president also challenged any who questioned the UFC to model their own promotion according to their fighter pay demands and successfully run a mixed martial arts promotion.Watch Dana White's appearance on GQ Sports' YouTube channel:
