UFC 299 was one of the most stacked UFC events in quite a long time. Given the amount of hype behind the UFC event, it had quite a lot of high-profile people in the stands. However, certain high-profile personalities gained a little more attention from the UFC fight fans.

Jiu Jitsu specialist Gordon Ryan was one high-profile combat athlete who was present during the UFC 299 event. But the reason Ryan gained quite a lot of unwanted attention was because of a picture he uploaded with the UFC CEO, Dana White, and the former US president, Donald Trump. Here is what some of the fans had to say about the picture posted by the Jiu Jitsu GOAT.

For some reason, Ryan has never been able to get through to a lot of MMA fans. And it is relatively visible in the comments on most of his social media posts. The recent picture with the UFC CEO, and Former US president at the UFC 299 event didn’t have much of a different reaction. Here are some of the comments from the post.

Despite hosting another major successful event, the UFC CEO can’t seem to catch a break. A question during the post-fight press conference seemed to have really gotten on the nerves of Dana White.

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.”

Leaving White’s annoyance at the question aside, it would be interesting to see fighters rock their own custom shorts to their fights. What did you think of O’Malley’s fight shorts for UFC 299? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
