Dana White recently revealed an exercise machine that has been in the works for a couple of years now. Tucker Carlson recently visited the UFC's headquarters regarding a FOX News documentary on White and his company. Apart from various artifacts in his office, the UFC president also showed Carlson a machine that will seemingly help fighters train without needing anyone to hold pads.

The machine has pads for punches, kicks, and even mid-section knees with a screen at the center. As per White, when developed, the machine will have someone on the screen to guide fighters through the pad workout. The 53-year-old told Carlson:

"So that's something we've been working on and developing. So you know, when you workout in the sport [demonstrates punches], you gotta get somebody to hold the pads for you. So we're trying to figure out a way where these guys don't need somebody to hold the pads. And you put on a guy in here [on the screen] telling you what to throw and what to do, kind of a workout. We've been developing this thing for a couple of years."

When asked about his progress so far, White said:

"It's coming together."

Dana White feels thirty-five again, shortly after being marked for death in ten years

Dana White recently shared how he was given a decade to live based off DNA analysis. Gary Brecka of 10X Health System gave the UFC president 10.4 years to live unless he brought in significant lifestyle changes. The 53-year-old said on The Action Junkeez podcast:

"He ends up coming out, he sits down for three and a half hours and goes through my blood work. I'm all f***ed up. Everything that can be bad can be possibly bad. He gave me 10.4 years to live."

White was introduced to a ten-week plan which, according to the UFC head honcho, has benifitted him greatly. The 53-year-old claims to have shed 30lbs during the timespan and also feels a lot younger:

"I did everything he said to the letter and I lost 30lbs. Everything is gone in ten f**king weeks, I have been working with doctors for ten years and they haven't been able to do anything. This guy is incredible and he can literally change your life."
