Reporter annoys Dana White during the UFC 299 post-fight press conference

Nearing the end of the post-fight press conference a reporter had unfortunately managed to get on the nerves of the UFC CEO, Dana White. This happened as the journalist asked a question that the 54-year-old felt was irrelevant to the massive UFC event that just took place. The question surrounded the Head honcho of the UFC whether Brandon Allen would get custom Purple shorts for his next fight considering Sean O’Malley and Bryce Mitchell had their own custom shorts for the event.

White had a passive-aggressive tone to his comment as he responded saying, “This is when we know we’ve gone too long with the press conference when we start talking about clothing. Sure he can have purple pants.”
