Dana White tends to get into arguments with his fighters. He also has some bad blood with a few people from the boxing community, like Jake Paul. However, many years ago, the President went on a rather odd rant against American singer, Justin Timberlake.

White is known to be outspoken and does not shy away from speaking his mind. Owing to the same, he openly expressed his dislike for Timberlake. White explained the reason behind this and also squashed the beef. But for those who are unaware of what had transpired, it turns out Dana White met Timberlake in Los Angeles and didn’t quite like him. He was later heard describing the singer as the “biggest douchebag” and “biggest d*ckhead” he ever met in his life.

White had explained that he and his wife were at the Nickelodeon Awards along with their kids. However, it seems like Timberlake did not greet White’s children. This might have upset the UFC President.

But they seem to be on good terms. White had posted a tweet and appreciated Timberlake for calling him and solving their issue. It is definitely great to see him and the Hollywood celebrity figure a way out of this.
