Dana White announces a Cybertruck giveaway
The UFC CEO recently shared a video on social media claiming that he’s going to do one of the biggest giveaways ever. In collaboration with Elon Musk, the 56-year-old announced that he will be giving away a hundred-thousand-dollar Tesla Cybertruck. He also mentioned that it is hard to get hold of this truck because when people book to purchase this truck, they have to wait three years to get hold of it.

“I’m giving away a free Tesla Cybertruck. This has to be the biggest giveaway I’ve ever done for two reasons. It’s a hundred-thousand-dollar truck and there’s a three-year waiting list for this thing,” said Dana White. He took the opportunity to thank the Tesla CEO for making this giveaway possible. White added, “Thank you Elon Musk, my brother. I appreciate you doing this for me.”
