Max Holloway beat Conor McGregor in an anticlimactic UFC 329 main event Saturday that ended in the first round after McGregor hurt his leg in the opening seconds of the fight.
The show outside the octagon failed to deliver too, as UFC president Dana White called out his production team for misidentifying one of the celebrities he paid to attend the fight. Something he said happens frequently.
On Saturday, his disappointment came from UFC confusing boxing champion Shakur Stevenson for Oklahoma City Thunder guard Jalen Williams. Thankfully, White had a broadcaster who was able to call out the mistake in real time.
"I just paid Shakur Stevenson a s---load of money, and for some reason we can't figure this celebrity s--- out," White said in an NSFW rant after the event.
With the WNBA's Sophie Cunningham also making an appearance as a UFC ring girl, celebrities were a clear part of the attraction Saturday night. But the team didn't execute the plan, because apparently all Black people look alike.
After all these years, this certainly seems like something UFC should be better at.
