Joe Rogan Speculates Dana White Could Have CTE
The recent Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor press conference media tour has been the talk of the sports world this week, but another interesting development which is making waves in the fight world is recent comments made by UFC commentator Joe Rogan about UFC President Dana White.
During a recent episode of his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience”, Rogan speculated Dana White could have Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, aka CTE.
“Dana White is a notorious gambler but he wins millions of dollars sometimes. I think he said he’s lost as much as $1 million and he’s won as much as $7 million in a night,” Rogan said via MMAFighting.
“[He does it for] thrills. Also, people who have been hit in the head a lot – Dana’s been hit in the head a lot. Notoriously impulsive, notoriously susceptible to addiction, whether it’s gambling addiction, alcohol addiction, it’s a big part of CTE. Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. That’s brain damage, from getting hit in the head. He did a lot of boxing when he was young, had his dome rattled.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
