The US$4 billion (NZ$5.5b) sale of the UFC to WME-IMG netted the former owners of the company a windfall of cash and that includes president Dana White - who got totally freaked out.
White owned 9 per cent of the company when the sale was finalised a couple of weeks ago and he's reported to make an estimated US$360 million (NZ$500m) as his part of the UFC now goes to the new owners.
"It doesn't suck," White joked when speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday about the money he made from the sale.
As of now, White hasn't actually seen the cheque from the sale of the UFC land in his bank account but once the accountants and lawyers sign off on the deal, he expects a very large cheque with his name attached to it.
"I got a couple bucks," White said with a laugh. "So what they do is when you do a deal like this, it has to go through a bunch of regulation and once the regulation is done and the thing finally closes, I guess you just get a cheque."
