Dana White reveals mother’s 2011 biography was a financial shakedown
UFC CEO Dana White has publicly addressed his estranged relationship with his late mother, June White, for the first time in detail. During an interview on The Diary of a CEO, White revealed that June published an unauthorized biography in 2011 titled 'Dana White: King of MMA' as part of a scheme to extort money from him. White stated that June sent increasingly aggressive emails demanding payment for a bar while he was traveling, leading to a permanent break in their relationship. He described the book as 'disgusting' and noted that it contained false accusations and private photos that harmed others, though he acknowledged his parents' role in shaping his character.
