We have always heard rumors of Dana White gambling big money in Vegas on the weekly basis. But no sources have really talked about this until now. In an article on LVRJ.com, sources say White can crazy Vegas habits that changed people’s lives. Check out what they had to say below:

One of the Palms’ biggest gamblers since it opened 11 years ago, White’s tipping habits were legendary.

“He changed people’s lives,” said one of the sources.

Dealers and wait staff were among the hardest hit by White’s departure. During one two-month hot streak, White tipped dealers more than $100,000, sources confirmed.

“Anytime he came in, we knew it was a big payday,” a Palms employee said.

A regular at N9NE Steakhouse, White routinely ran up dinner tabs of $15,000-$20,000 and tossed in $10,000 tips. That happened three or four or times a week, the sources said.

It’s Crazy to think about, that new UFC fighters get paid what Dana White tips to waiters/waitresses a couple times a week.

Leandro Lo wants to fight Corbinha, Mendes, Frazatto before moving to Middle

0

Leandro Lo recently had an interview with Graciemag.com and had some interesting thoughts. He plans to move to middleweight next year and wants to fight the biggest names at the IBJJ Pro League like Rafael Mendes, Cobrinha, and Bruno Frazatto. His full response below:

“On December 8 there’s the IBJJ Pro in Long Beach, and that’s going to be a really cool championship. Only the top ranked in the IBJJF standings will get to compete, and there will be fewer weight divisions, so the lightweights and featherweights will compete against each other. That will be a challenge but also a pleasure, since there are some really tough guys at featherweight who I’d like to fight, like Rubens Cobrinha, Bruno Frazatto and Rafael Mendes, who is a really good and strategic fighter. I really want to compete against those guys.”

Who wants to see these super matches? We know we do!
