McKenzie, 27, cites reports about White tipping waitresses and dealers in Las Vegas with tens of thousands of dollars and the Fertittas funding the state-of-the-art stadium at Bishop Gorman High School, where Lorenzo's sons played football.
"It's just a joke," McKenzie said. "I've heard stories about Dana tipping waitresses big money and it's like, 'Damn that's more money than I get paid a year.' That sucks.
"There's a bunch of guys getting their heads pounded in to make them that money struggling. They don't understand the other end of it. They don't understand the struggle. Dana runs around running his mouth all the time about fighters."
That's why McKenzie wouldn't mind showing White what it's like to be an MMA fighter.
"What drives me the most nuts is how he'll talk like he knows," McKenzie said. "All these people who talk about fighting, it's like a million virgins watching a porno. They've never had sex, but they all want to put their input in. It's ridiculous. They all have their input, but until you've been in a fight you have no clue what it's like. That's the bottom line. It's like sex. Until you've done it, you have no clue what's going on.
More than anything, McKenzie finds it disrespectful the way White and UFC owners Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta flaunt their money. The UFC is estimated to be worth more than $1 billion, yet McKenzie said he never made more than $50,000 in one year. He fought seven times for the UFC from 2010 to 2013 and is an alum of the organization's flagship reality show "The Ultimate Fighter."
"I would love to fight Dana White," McKenzie said. "I'd love to beat him up. He talks bad about fighters all the time, disrespects fighters. Yeah, he's a piece of work."
"Dana has never been in a fight," McKenzie said. "I'd fight Dana for free."
