Media Dana White gifted streamer Adin Ross $630,000

[jeskola]

First $250k to the Nelk Boy and now this. Meanwhile Pantoja is working Uber and JDM can't afford to fly his team to his title fight.

"The first time I met Dana White he gave me $630,000, the best impression. He’s a great guy, great human being, the best at what he does, I take notes, I’m a very big fan of what he does, I love Dana."

Adin Ross is famous, rich and most importantly can afford to gamble with him

FYI I would say the same thing if Dana gave me $630,000..

Looks like Adin Ross got the performance of the night bonus

Meanwhile UFC fighters are living like

What is it with Dana and giving large amounts of money to young boys like the Neik boys and now Adin Ross...

Social Media influencers are more important than most fighters to a streaming content delivery company like the UFC. That's just a fact in 2025.

"Gift"

Literally just a pay check to get good press from a streamer with a huge audience.

Exposure (not the indecent kind). The more zoomers he can get invested in UFC or slap fighting, the better for him. His kids might be fans of those dudes too, which might also explain why he invites them to shit and such.

Adin Ross is exceptionally degenerate brainrot

I think the correct way to address fighter pay is to instead give money to influencers to "influence" them to never bring up the issue rather then actually just paying the fighters.

UFC has multi million dollar marketing/media teams. Dana's just doing what's instructed. Ask behind the scenes and he doesn't give 2 shits about those kids unless he's legitimately in some mid-life crisis trying to fit and hang out with young boys.

If that was really the case it would come from the UFC instead of Dana personally because the UFC would claim it as a business expense

But for Dana to be giving large amounts of money to young boys from his own pocket....alot of speculation can be made from that

 

[Young Calf Kick]

WWE Era in full effect

degeneracy everywhere

If my kid were to actually watch and enjoy content of degenerate little wimps like Adin Ross I’d feel like a failed parent

Grooming.

 

[PeterGriffin]

Can't shit on Dana for what he does with his own money.

 

[GrantB13]

Lol over half a million dollars the first time they meet. Hopefully he reported that income because he just disclosed it on video. But holy crap what a pretentious world these people live in. Would they even talk to each other if it wasn't for wealth, fame, and what they can potentially do for each other?

 

[evergreenrider]

Adin Ross, renowned Brazilian who's helped grow the UFC to what it is today. Much deserved.

 

[El Panteron]

Don't be scared brother you can

 

[XociDe]

They were on a blacjack session if I remember correctly. He was down big and Dana showed up, won a few hands and gave Adin the chips. Something like that.

Either way it's Dana's own money. I don't get why this makes people so salty. It's also sort of an investment. Dana uses these "influencers" to promote his Slap events.
