The president of the promotion UFC, Dan White, and his wife were recently seen at a nightclub beating each other up. When they were celebrating the arrival of the new year in the VIP area of Squid Roe, a nightclub in Cabo San Lucas (Baja California, Mexico), Dana was caught by a camera at the exact moment he was hitting his wife.
The first who came out to clarify the situation was the assaulted woman: “Unfortunately, we both drank too much at the New Year’s Eve party and things got out of control on both sides. We talked about this as a family and we apologize to each other, ”said Anne White, who came out to justify her husband.
It all happened while they were celebrating New Year’s Eve with a group of friends; it was then that the reaction was triggered. According to images that have gone viral on social media, they were seen talking angrily to the point where Dana grabbed Anne’s wrist very tightly..
After that, in the video he is seen struggling to keep her closethen a slap her hits him on the cheek, then he retaliates by hitting her very hardthen their friends got involved and separated the couple, probably so they wouldn’t escalate any further.
Witnesses say the conflict only lasted about a minute, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.
‘I’m ashamed’
Dana White was interviewed by TMZ Sports about the incident. She spoke about the situation, and the narrative that kept spinning was that Anne and Dana have been married for 30 years and have known each other since they were 12, and their only concern is the well-being of their family.
“I’m ashamed”accepted White himself, who also blamed alcohol.
“You have heard me say more than once that a man never has to touch a woman, and now I am here talking about this,” added the UFC boss.
Anne also spoke with TMZ Sports. He asserted: “Dana and I have been married for almost 30 years.. To say this is out of character for him is an understatement; nothing like this had happened before. Unfortunately, the two of us were also drinking heavily on New Year’s Eve and things got out of hand, on both sides. We talk about this as a family and apologize to each other. I just hope people respect our privacy for the sake of our children.”
