UFC President Dana White takes no prisoners and is brutal with his comments if he doesn’t like something during his event. Former UFC champion and legend Anderson Silva is one amongst many who has faced the wrath of Dana White. UFC veteran Clay Guida also got a taste of Dana’s anger in the post fight press conference of UFC Kansas City.
After losing to Rafa Garcia in a hard-fought battle, Clay Guida removed his gloves. This led to Daniel Cormier asking The Carpenter whether he is hanging up his gloves and retiring from the UFC. Guida hyped up the fans at Kansas City and made everyone believe that he is retiring. But moments later he declared that this was all a joke.

âThat pi**ed me off actually, to be honest with you. No, that pissed me off. I like him, heâs a nice guy, but youâre faking your retirement so you can say f**king happy birthday to somebody? Yeah, we’re running a live event here, I was not happy about that.”
It is needless to say that Dana White looked upset while talking about Clay Guida in the post-event presser. With that being said, it would be interesting to see whether the UFC President allows Guida to continue fighting in the UFC.
