Dana White tears up the terrible UFC 282 event between Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev

UFC president Dana White Not actually recorded UFC 282 The main event, because he said he caught it after witnessing a less than exciting affair between them Jan Blachowicz And the Magomed Ankalayev.

The five-round fight was eventually scored into a separate draw, meaning the UFC light heavyweight title remains vacant after the former champion. Jerry Prochazka He gave up the belt due to a serious shoulder injury that prevented him from competing on Saturday.

In response to the main event at the UFC 282 post-match press conference, White didn’t have much to say to Blachowicz or Ankalaev – and the same goes for the way the match ultimately ended.

“I don’t know,” White said when asked how he scored the match. “I’m starting to walk out after three rounds like a f******.”

Ankalaev was distraught after reading the decision in the cage and said “I don’t know if I will ever fight for this organization again.” He later added that he might come back to “take what we’ve got”, but it appears another shot at the title isn’t in his immediate future.

White had heard of Ankalife’s displeasure with the decision and could not understand why there was so much surprise in the split lot.

“I heard Ancalif was upset or whatever,” White said. “What do you want me to do? I got beat in the first two rounds. I took him to the ground. What are you going to do?”

More than anything, however, White’s anger toward the main event wasn’t necessarily about the score but rather about the performances from Ankalaev and Blachowicz. This is what ultimately led him to take the call to book Glover Teixeira against Jamhel Hill in UFC 283 In Brazil with the vacant light heavyweight title.

“What are you going to do?” White said. “I thought the main event was horrible. What are you going to do? You do Glover against Jamal Hill in Brazil for the vacant title. Do it.”

It remains to be seen what happens next for either Blachowicz or Ankalaev, though a rematch could still happen – it seems highly unlikely that the title is at stake.
