Even though he’s known as a funny and quite friendly man, heavyweight Derrick Lewis also has a side that gives White the shakes.

“When Derrick Lewis comes to a staredown, the only thing that makes him even a little bit not scary is that he actually has a sense of humor. He’s funny sometimes. But, god forbid you get in there with Derrick Lewis and he doesn’t like the other fighter,” White said.

”I was in between him and another guy one time at the faceoff, and I started trying to stop him. I might as well not fucking be there”

Another fighter with an intimidating aura is unbeaten former light heavyweight kingpin Jon Jones. ”Johnny Bones” has been around forever, and scared the shit out of the UFC president on a number of occasions.

“Jon Jones is one of those guys too. Jon Jones is a freak of nature,” White said.

Alex Pereira

Bursting into the UFC scene as late as November 2021, middleweight champion Alex Pereira already freaked out Dana White, especially at the ceremonial weigh-ins ahead of UFC 281 a few weeks back.

”One of the scariest guys and intimidating dudes right now is Pereira. When you look at the guy he looks like a stone-cold fucking killer,” White said.
