Dana White is putting his money where his mouth is in backing podcaster Bob Menery to drag out of his planned fighting debut.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Menery insists that Adin Ross has agreed to advertise an MMA fight between him and former NFL star Johnny Manziel \u2013 who famously won the Heisman trophy as a freshman in college. He claims that the show will happen on May 16 as the most recent Brand Risk Promotions event, with an undercard of boxing.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, White has seen Menery come and go from countless projects and believes that he is not going to make the walk as planned in Miami. And if he does, the UFC boss has vowed to skip his own event on the identical night and travel from Vegas to look at his pal compete.<\/p>\n

Dana White backs Bob Menery to skip Johnny Manziel fight<\/h2>\n

In a video shared to Instagram tonight, Dana White claimed that he was asked by Bob Menery who he would bet on when he fights Johnny Manziel later this yr. The UFC boss laughed off the concept, telling Menery that he would sooner put money on him pulling out than either result.<\/p>\n

And a betting company actually gave White odds based on probability, so he has put down a whopping $10,000 on the opportunity of Menery refusing to point out up in any respect. \u201cSo that you guys have seen all of the stuff that\u2019s gone on with me and Nelk and Bob Menery through the years,\u201d White told fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cMenery is back and he has supposedly signed a deal on Adin Ross\u2019 fight show down in Miami to fight Johnny Manziel, okay? So Menery hits me up and says \u2018who’re you betting on?\u2019 I said \u2018I\u2019m betting on you don\u2019t even show up, that\u2019s my bet\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cMenery never does anything he says he\u2019s going to do. So Adin Ross\u2019 fight show in Miami, Menery vs Manziel, Polymarket put a bet on it where you’ll be able to bet whether he shows up or not\u2026 There\u2019s no way 49 per cent of individuals consider in Bob Menery and that he\u2019s going to point out up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no way in hell, so I\u2019m betting $10,000 Menery doesn’t show up. And Bob, should you do and the night before it looks such as you\u2019re going to fight, I\u2019m flying to Miami to look at this one.\u201d<\/p>\n
