Dana White fires back at Demetrious Johnson over claims of mistreatment by the UFC

Demetrious Johnson and UFC president Dana White remain at odds over a disagreement about the proposed matchup with T.J. Dillashaw amidst a myriad of other complaints from the flyweight champion.

Earlier this week, Johnson released a statement laying out all the complaints he has with the UFC and treatment he’s received from the promotion while pointing the finger directly at White as the biggest culprit.

Johnson detailed why he didn’t want to fight Dillashaw after he had already been offered a fight with Ray Borg and then explained that he was focused on making history with his 11th consecutive title defense while worrying that the former bantamweight champion would fail to make weight for their fight.
