So perhaps he's trying to have it both ways.

I'll only add that if he claims to be a non-political person, he is front and center in the ring and outside the ring as a free speech champion.

And he often polices the speech of his fighters who were contracted with him whilst they are fighting in the ring.

For instance, I think I saw this report on the... more perfect union on some of Dana White's political depredations, wherein he is penalizing his fighters for talking about their wages and talking about their contracts in the ring and asking for a certain dollar amount when they compete in the ring, doing so in public, rather.

And so for a free speech warrior, he certainly has had his hand in putting the clamps on the free speech of his fighters.

And then, of course, also he has stipulated in the contracts with many of his fighters, perhaps most of them, I don't know if there's been any reforms recently, I doubt it, that they are to be classified as independent contractors.

And therefore they have to purchase their own gym equipment, their own gym memberships, hire their own trainers, and they are capped at making something under $20,000 a year most of the time, unless they're these big breakout, you know, stars and so forth.
