LAS VEGAS – UFC president Dana White’s reason for helping Joe Pyfer was simple.
Pyfer (10-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC), who was the lone fighter to earn a UFC contract on Dana White’s Contender Series 47 earlier this summer, opened up to White, and it paid off. Pyfer told him that he had nowhere to live, so White gave him enough money to pay for a year’s worth of rent, which Pyfer was very grateful for.
When asked why he did it, White said it’s not the first time he’s taken care of a fighter in this manner.
