White said in an interview with TMZ Sports:&quot;I'm happy for him and his family to be finally back together. Cain Velasquez is a good man, he's a good person, and I'm hoping the judge that looked at this case said 'You know what? This family has suffered enough'. As if the kids haven't suffered enough, they lost their father for almost a year.
