Dana White teased fight ‘no one will see coming’ in 2025
In the final event of 2024, the UFC returned to Tampa, Florida, for a Fight Night headlined by Colby Covington and Joaquin Buckley.
Following the event, White went backstage to talk to the media about another successful year and what he had planned heading into 2025.
During the post-fight press conference, the UFC boss teased a huge fight that was in the works, which had the UFC fanbase extremely excited because of his words.
“I anticipate a lot of big fights. I’ve got something in the works right now that will drive you f—— crazy, you guys will be running around. I’ve got something in the works right now that you will never f—— see coming, for 2025, that literally started to come together last night,” he claimed.
Of course, whatever fight White was alluding to didn’t come to fruition, and fans are still clueless as to what fight the boss was talking about.
Because of White’s phrasing, several fans were expecting a comeback from someone like Brock Lesnar, with a lot of fans also predicting White was talking about a potential Conor McGregor fight.
