White was addressing the media during the post-fight press conference and claimed that Dillons Danis had a ticket, and he allowed the MMA star to remain close to Islam Makhachev’s team. However, White took part of the blame for the incident since he allowed things to escalate. He confirmed that Danis would be banned from future UFC events, but White refused to press charges against the American: “They called me downstairs and they said ‘We got him, do you want to press charges and have him arrested?’ And I said ‘No, I don’t want to press charges.’ This is the fight business man, you know how I feel about this sh**. I could have prevented this tonight and I messed up.”.
