TMZ Sports<\/a>, White said he’s not concerned about what MMA fans think about his relationship with President Trump.<\/p>\n“I could give a sh*t. I don’t give a sh*t. If you don’t like me because I’m friends with this guy, that’s your problem, not mine,” White said.<\/p>\n
According to White, he wasn’t even expecting to speak at Trump’s rally, but that’s what happened.<\/p>\n
“Yeah, I wasn’t really campaigning. He called me and asked me if I wanted to go to Colorado. He said, ‘Wanna go to Colorado?’ I said, ‘Yeah,’ so we flew to Colorado for the day then back to Vegas. We were just hanging out and talking fights. I wasn’t even supposed to speak that day, I was just cruising over there with him,” White said.<\/p>\n
White once again praised President Trump for being a loyal friend towards him, which is what he spoke about at the political rally. The two have a friendship going back two decades when the UFC was in its infant stages in the Zuffa ownership days.<\/p>\n
“I can’t say it enough. This guy \u2014 when I say this guy, I’m talking about President Trump \u2014 is such a good friend and such a loyal, amazing guy, man. He’s a great guy. He’s been a friend of mine for a long time,” White said.<\/p>\n
