Dana White: I don't care if TRT users have to retire
Winslow Townson / USA TODAY Sports
Following the weigh ins Friday for UFC Fight Night 37 in London, Dana White was asked about the issue of fighters being forced to give up MMA as a result of the recent bans on testosterone replacement therapy.
White, as usual, was blunt.
“I don’t care. If you need that stuff to perform and compete, you probably shouldn't perform or compete any more," White told MMAjunkie. "[If] it goes away, I don’t give a s–t. Not my problem. That fight, the whole Vitor (Belfort) thing, that battle is not my battle. That’s Vitor’s battle.”
White did confirm that Belfort was still in line for a middleweight title shot, and that every time Belfort fought, he was within what was deemed acceptable levels of testosterone.
