Dana White's skit during Sunday's NFL games causing controversy

|

UFC President Dana White was a part of a comedy skit during Sunday’s NFL on FOX and it has caused a bit of controversy.

As part of the promotional bits for Saturday’s UFC on FOX 5, White was part of a sketch called “Riggle’s Picks” during the NFL on FOX.

White posed as one of Riggle’s insiders, posing as a homeless man in a cardboard box, providing Riggle with the inside scoop on Carolina Panthers’ quarterback Cam Newton’s pregnancy.

Following the skit, the Pres was barraged by outraged folks on Twitter.

@UFCWozny
Not funny for those who actually live out of a box. Should apologize

@danawhite
the pussies in this country who cry about everything everyone does makes me f—— ill.

The back and forth tweets went on for a while, but have seemed to fizzle out.
