"This made me laugh stupid hard" - Dana White getting annoyed after being called "Dana Pink" has fans in splits
UFC CEO Dana White recently fell prey to online trolling.
MMA fans persist on teasing White by often referring to him as 'Dana Pink'. During his most recent Instagram Live session, White faced a barrage of comments where fans trolled him by using the name.
However, unlike previous instances, the UFC head honcho's reaction was less welcoming, as he appeared noticeably annoyed by the influx of 'Dana Pink' remarks. He said:
"'Dana Pink' all right relax, you're like the f**king 50th person that said it. Got it I'm pink."

When Dana White asked Threads app for "filter" to make him look "less pink"
The recent Instagram Live marked a rare public instance where Dana White appeared irritated by the 'Dana Pink' joke. Typically, the UFC CEO takes these jests in good humor, as they are usually lighthearted and not meant in a negative manner.
When social media platform Threads was launched in July 2023, White amusingly joined in the fun and inquired if the app had a filter to make him look less pinkish:
"Does @threadsapp have a filter to make me look less pink?"
