Dana White's journey from taking on a series of ordinary jobs to becoming one of the biggest names connected with the UFC is a story of dramatic financial shift. The Connecticut-born businessman, raised by his nurse mother and grandmother, worked several jobs such as as a hotel bellboy at The Four Seasons and a road worker.
Following mob threats, White left and eventually embarked on the path that resulted in his involvement in buying the UFC for $2m in 2001. Fifteen years later, the organization was sold for $4billion.
