Dana White slams Gary Bettman and the NHL Draft at the Sphere Las Vegas
UFC owner Dana White criticized Gary Bettman and the NHL Draft at the Las Vegas Sphere during a recent press conference.
White has consistently been outspoken on various issues over the years. Recently, the UFC announced that UFC 306 will be held at the Sphere, coinciding with the NHL Draft held there a few days ago.
When asked about the event, White didn't mince words. He directly stated that the NHL Draft will seem like "Kids playing with crayons" compared to what they have planned for their night at the Sphere.
Watch his full comment in the video below:
"I did see what they did with the rankings all the way up. That's going to be like f***ing kids playing with crayons compared to what we're going to do. Literally. Kids playing with crayons."
Hockey experts widely lauded this year's NHL draft for its excitement. The event featured numerous trades, unexpected picks, and even notable guest stars announcing team selections.
Fans also found it enjoyable, especially since this is expected to be the final NHL draft where all teams gather together.
Now, it will be up to White to fulfill his commitments and organize a spectacular event for UFC 306 in September.
