“F–k Dana White” is the chorus of
a diss track released by YouTube star Jake Paul on Friday aimed at the UFC
president.
Paul also rapped that White should “lay
off that cocaine” and called him a “scumbag” for not increasing
fighter pay or giving them healthcare options.
Here’s the full song (language NSFW):
Near the end of the track, Paul
transitions from rapping to a message directed toward White.
“I haven’t met a single person who
says anything good about you,” he says. “I passed my drug test
and you went silent. I’m keeping my foot on your neck until you tap,
bitch. Stop raising your pay-per-view prices on the fans and not
paying fighters more. Greedy, lonely, old, bald bitch.”
It’s the latest exchange in an
escalating war of words between Paul, who’s recently got into the
fight game with a 5-0 boxing record, and White.
In December, White responded after the
social media star’s initial suggestion he used cocaine.
“So this guy keeps saying that I’m a
cokehead,” the UFC president said on The Fight with Teddy Atlas (via Bloody Elbow). “He can randomly
cocaine test me for the next 10 years if I can randomly steroid test
him for the next two.”
Chisanga Malata of The Sun subsequently
reported both Paul and opponent Tyron Woodley, a former UFC
welterweight champion, “produced negative results for all
prohibited substances” before their second fight on Dec. 18. Paul
won the bout by sixth-round knockout.
The heart of the dispute between Paul
and White has been fighter pay and healthcare. The
YouTuber-turned-boxer announced Tuesday he’d purchased stock in
Endeavor Group Holdings Inc., the UFC’s parent company, to further his efforts to improve fighter pay and healthcare:

I’ve invested in EDR (UFC) stock with my partner <a href=”https://twitter.com/geoffreywoo?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>@geoffreywoo</a> 2 focus on UFCs ESG standards relating to fighters. We believe EDR can drive long-term economic value by increasing UFC fighter pay & providing them healthcare.

White previously said Paul and his
manager, Nakisa Bidarian, should start their own promotion if they have all the
answers.
“But if you two think you can do it
better than we do, [that] we’re doing the whole thing wrong and
you’re treating fighters better than we do, knock yourself out,” White said. “Go start your own business, it’s easy
to do. Get the warlock on it.”
Now the question is whether he’ll fire back after Paul’s diss track.
