Paul added, “We didn’t f**k him over, but like, I did him a little dirty. And he might be upset with me.” He explained that the reason for this was the video that he shot alongside the famous YouTuber, KSI. This video was an advertisement for his drinking company, ‘PRIME’.

Paul mentioned that there was a scene in the video in which the two of them ask for advice to become successful, and the video cuts to a clip of Dana White saying, “I think you guys got it figured out.”

Paul explained, “And the joke was like we’re trying to be successful, so we shaved our head. Cause all bald people are successful, look at you. And the joke was like, Dana’s bald, and he’s successful.” He then spoke more about the scene with Dana White.

Paul said, “We shot that separately. So Dana didn’t know what context it was going to be used in.” He added, “And we were poking fun – fun… of him being bald and successful. But it was used in like a PRIME commercial.”

This commercial may have angered Dana White, and the video might have jeopardized Paul’s future UFC career.
