Why didn’t MMA media ask Dana White about Mike Perry?

One of the biggest stories in MMA are the domestic abuse allegations Mike Perry’s ex-wife, Danielle Nickerson, has made against the UFC fighter. Despite the evidence against Perry, which includes 911 audio police recording and court records, the story has felt noticeably under-reported. Most notably, MMA access media on hand for UFC 254 on ‘Fight Island’ have seemingly failed to do any follow-up work with the promotion’s president, Dana White. Even as Perry has once again been given a booking, on the main card of UFC 255.

All of this evidenced in the recent press conference, where not a single question about the allegations against Perry was asked.
