UFC President Dana White was not happy with the meeting between the former heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum com Colby covington, in Australia. Before UFC Sidney, the two bumped into each other and exchanged insults after the North American spoke badly about Brazil. Then, “Vai Cavalo” threw a boomerang in the direction of the welterweight, who got angry and took the case to the local police.

Although the incident was minimized by several fighters, who agreed with Werdum, Dana White, in a press conference, showed irritation with the Brazilian for the attack on Covington and admitted that he does not have a good relationship with his former champion.
“I didn’t laugh about it. My reaction wasn't to laugh. It was not funny. Believe me, I understand how passionate Brazilians are about their country. I know that Colby disrespected Brazil and the Brazilian people. I know what they are like. But you can't go around attacking others. That is wrong. We don't have a good relationship, we really don't. This guy has a list of bad things he always does. He almost got into a fight with Tony Ferguson at a lunch with the press and now this”, pointed out Dana White, according to the MMA Fighting website, declaring, however, that he intends to change that soon.
“Right before I came to talk to you from the press, I received a message from Fabricio Werdum, asking for a meeting, saying he wants to talk to me. I have avoided meeting him. But I texted back, saying we'll meet up. So, Werdum and I are going to sit down, talk and try to improve our relationship”, he commented.
