Present in the front row of UFC 268, Dana White has plenty of reasons to celebrate, in addition to the success of last weekend's MMA show. A self-confessed boxing fan, the Ultimate leader won a huge chunk of money after betting US$100 (around R$5,5 million) on Canelo Álvarez's knockout victory against Caleb Plant. The Mexican legend's brutal knockout gave the 'boss' an eye-popping profit.

On his social networks, White published proof of the bet with the profit obtained over US$100. With the right guess of a Canelo knockout, the UFC leader received just over US$41 (approximately R$220).

In the boxing show held last Saturday (6), Álvarez returned to the ring and put his super middleweight belts on the line. There was expectation for the confrontation, as, during a promotional campaign for the show, a few weeks ago, the athletes even exchanged punches. At the time, Caleb ended up suffering an injury to his face.

In the fight, Canelo once again proved why he is considered one of the best boxers of all time. With a dominant performance, the Mexican scored another knockout, crushing his rival in the 11th round.
