The feud between Dana White and Paulo borrachinha added another chapter. In a post-UFC 263 last Saturday (12), the president spoke about the Brazilian's recent comments about the difference in salary offered by Ultimate compared to boxing. According to him, the problems with Borrachinha have been resolved.

“Our relationship is good. He said some nonsense, but I fixed it all. That's how I see it. Do I know his future? It seems not. He should sit back and enjoy it for a while. I don’t know,” White said.
The 'boss' of Ultimate, however, once again mocked Borrachinha's request, claiming that the Minas Gerais native is not in a good position to show a salary increase, but still hints that he counts on him in the middleweight squad (up to 83,9 .XNUMXkg.).
“He said he wants to get paid more because of YouTube stars. He compares their salaries and wants to receive how much they are earning. Apparently, he didn’t see his last fight”, added the agent.
In recent weeks, the name of Paulo borrachinha was highlighted in the world of MMA when he denied having signed any contract to face Jared Cannonier, in an event that takes place on August 21st. Alleging disagreement regarding the salary received for the confrontation, the athlete ended up giving way to Kelvin Gastelum, who accepted the clash. The miner's statement sounded bad to Dana White, who had already confirmed the confrontation.
