UFC president Dana White suffered a “bad attack” due to his Meniere’s Disease earlier today while in Dublin accepting an award at Trinity College.
Dana did his best to fight through. Even after telling the crowd that he was having an attack, he continued for several more questions before he was finally helped away by his friend Nick “The Tooth” and others. He looked to be very fragile.
“DUBLIN: @danawhite suffered a bad attack during the Trinity award ceremony, thx for support & understanding, we’ll be back soon, luv u guys” – @nickthetooth
Dana White had originally intended to go to the pub and buy drinks in Temple Bar for the Irish fans but was forced to cancel.
“@danawhite Meniere’s attack while accepting award ‘n Q&A, amazing he powered thru it… no f*** joke and NO way I could’ve” – @nickthetooth
Dana has since flown over to London for UFC on FUEl 7 this Saturday.
Fair play to Dana
Unfortunate no drinks in Temple Bar.
Hope he can overcome this disease, for the sake of MMA.
