Dana White lights up UFC production staff for misidentifying boxing star Shakur Stevenson as an NBA player

UFC President and CEO Dana White joins Tomi Lahren for an unfiltered conversation fresh off the historic UFC250 event on the White House lawn.

UFC President Dana White expected Shakur Stevenson to get a hero's welcome at UFC 329.

Instead, the UFC couldn't even get the sport right, introducing him as an NBA player. The mishap set up for one of White's most memorable post-fight rants in recent memory.

"So, I tell you all the time, my production team is amazing. We just did the White House ... and it was the greatest f---ing thing in the world to be there live and to watch it on TV," White told reporters.

"They put him up as a f---ing OKC NBA player. Are you f---ing kidding me? It's absolutely crazy," White continued. "We are the absolute worst to ever do the celebrity thing. When we put celebrities up, we are the worst."

So what set White off?
