The iconic term “Dana White Privilege” was first uttered by Tony Ferguson in the build-up to his fight with Michael Chandler at the UFC 274 press conference. Since then, the term has gone on to become widely popular with the fan base and has come to mean a fighter who is undeserving of the perceived “push” that they are receiving from the UFC. Often this fighter may be let get away with behaviour that otherwise would face severe consequences. An example of this can be seen with Khamzat Chimaev facing very little repercussions for missing weight by a huge margin at UFC 279, causing the event to go for a complete overhaul.
