By now, you could have witnessed the clip which is been floating all over on social media of rapper Eminem providing UFC president Dana White a piece of his mind.
It started making the rounds two times in the past and showed Eminem and White together on ESPN’s “SportsCenter,” evidently giving some kind of a joint job interview. In the 9-2nd clip, this is what Eminem said to White:
“I consider that people like you give people like me the gas that they want to be successful in the initially put. I assume that the greatest section about your belief is that it does not make any difference, and if every fighter that you had listened to your impression when you doubted them, you wouldn’t have a f*cking league.”

The movie functions precise fight footage from a host of UFC stars, including Israel Adesanya, Amanda Nunes, and Max Holloway. You can test it out down below (the aspect with Eminem and White is at the 2:12 mark):
