UFC President Dana White commented by Blythe Mitchell to defend Adolf Hitler on Thursday, and he was “tired” in a statement by Mitchell at his podcast at the beginning of the week. I said.
“I’ve heard a lot of ridiculous, ignorant S, but it’s probably the worst,” said White on Thursday night after a power slap event in Saudi Arabia. “When you talk about Hitler, he was responsible for the death of 6 million Jews, and he tried to completely eliminate people’s races … Hitler is the most disgusting person walking on the global face. Everyone was stupid to take the opposite.
Mitchell calls Hitler “good people based on my own research” in the first episode of his podcast “Arkan Sanity”.
“I think he was a person who went fishing before Hitler rode a scalpel,” said Mitchell. “He fought for his country.”
Mitchell commented on anti -Semitism and anti -LGBTQ+while Hitler said he wanted to purify Germany.
“Hitler was perfect? No, but he was fighting for his people,” said Mitchell. He also claimed that the Holocaust was not real, saying, “There is no way to burn and cremate 6 million bodies.”
White quoted the freedom of speech, saying Mitchell would not face the discipline from the UFC.
“I don’t have to love it, you don’t have to love it,” he said.
“It’s a beautiful thing in this business. For those who dislike Blythe Mitchell, you can see him getting his ass on a global TV.”
When asked about the conversation with Mitchell, Mitchell said in connection with UFC that he was disappointed that he would be in his position.
UFC has rarely disciplined fighters about their comments, but White temporarily cut Miguel Torres from the company for inappropriate tweets in 2011. Torres revived in less than a month.
Natan Levi, a UFC fighter who accepts the Jewish heritage, responded to Mitchell’s comment on Thursday on Instagram and said to Mitchell, “I actually talked about Judaism. We welcome learning about our history and culture. “
Mitchell has waved in the past and has commented on the battle before the battle. He had previously claimed that gravity was not real, and that the earth was flat. In December, he said, “I don’t believe in a seat belt,” and said the government should not tell him what to do.
