Valentina Shevchenko defends Dana White as ‘a good person’ in wake of Cris Cyborg spat

Following UFC president Dana White’s war of words with former featherweight champion Cris Cyborg, UFC flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko has said that White ‘is a good person’ and takes care of his fighters.

The comment from Shevchenko stems from Dana White saying he was ‘done’ with Cyborg after the Brazilian’s decision win over Felicia Spencer at UFC 240. Cyborg then released a video on social media that depicted White in a bad light, but later apologised to the UFC president and admitted the video was altered.

“With the situation she had with Dana White recently, I haven’t been paying a lot of attention to what happened between them,” Shevchenko said.
