According to UFC president Dana White, he does not condone his athletes fighting outside the cage – but in the case of Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington , he isn’t surprised it allegedly happened. White weighed in for the first time Friday on the alleged attack by Masvidal, in which he punched rival Covington in the face resulting in a broken tooth. Masvidal was arrested and faces charges of aggravated battery and criminal mischief. “First of all, in no way shape or form do I ever condone violence and my guys fighting each other in the streets or sh*t like that,” White said, on The Pat McAfee Show . “On the flip side, when you’re dealing with a guy like Jorge Masvidal and you start talking about his family, all these fighters listen, say what you want to say about me, you hate me, you think I’m ugly, you think I’m stupid – whatever my thing is. When you start talking about people’s families, it goes to a whole other level, man.” Condone it or not, White said he isn’t surprised by what allegedly happened.
