Dana White believes fans have been "f***ing smashed" for pirating UFC streams of the promotion's pay-per-view events.
White has led a crusade on behalf of his promotion as president of the UFC in a bid to crack down on the illegal streaming of UFC events that are held on pay-per-view. Fans are legally able to watch the events on BT Sport in the UK as part of a standard subscription or on ESPN+ in the US where fans are also required to pay for any pay-per-view beyond the traditional fight night.
Fans in the UK are often only made to pay extra for significant fights which include any of UFC superstar Conor McGregor who is yet to fight since his pay-per-view outing against Dustin Poirier last July. White has confirmed he is continuing to be concerned by fans who "steal" from the fighters by streaming the events.
