Dana White has denied rumors of UFC staff being laid off during the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic. After news emerged that Endeavor, which owns the UFC, has laid off 250 staff members, a story in Variety claimed the UFC also has let go of staff, which UFC president White said is not true. White said no UFC staff members have lost their jobs during a live video on his Instagram feed and went off on the journalist who he claimed was reveling when delivering the news. The story has been amended since then to remove the UFC reference. “(Wednesday), this scumbag posted a story that says ‘UFC hit with layoffs,’ and he was literally gloating about it,” White said.
