Fã Invade UFC Press Conference and Pleads with Dana White for a Chance

UFC President Dana White was confronted by a passionate fan during a press conference in Las Vegas.

The fan, later identified as Nick Diaz, expressed his desire to fight in the UFC and asked White for an opportunity.

The surprising incident occurred during the UFC Vegas 68 press conference on Wednesday, November 16, 2023.

As the conference was concluding, Diaz, dressed in a black hoodie and beanie, jumped onto the stage and approached White, who was seated at the front table.

Diaz, a former UFC welterweight and middleweight title challenger, spoke passionately about his desire to return to the Octagon and asked White to give him a chance.

White listened attentively to Diaz's plea, but did not immediately commit to giving him a fight.

He explained that Diaz is currently under contract with a rival promotion and that he would need to be released before the UFC could sign him.

White also mentioned that Diaz has not fought in over two years and that he would need to prove that he is still capable of competing at the highest level.

Despite White's reservations, Diaz remained hopeful that he would be able to secure a fight in the UFC.

He thanked White for his time and promised to stay ready for an opportunity.

It remains to be seen whether White will eventually grant Diaz's wish, but the fan's passionate plea certainly made an impact on the UFC president.
