Dana White seemingly tipped his car valet a staggering amount, as footage has emerged on social media.
White, 55, is not short of a dollar or two and has a reported net worth of over $500m, as reported by Sports Illustrated.
He even recently went on vacation in a $2.8m per week yacht. The Times of India even reports that Dana pockets around $20m per year from his role at the UFC, combined with various commercial and sponsorship deals.
White has also been known to gamble big stakes in Las Vegas’ casinos and has won – and lost – millions, and even he previously revealed how he was banned from some casinos.

UFC commentator, comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan previously explained how Dana’s gambling habits gave him “anxiety” when he spoke on an episode of the Joe Rogan Podcast in 2024.
“I’m good friends with Dana White, and uh, Dana’s a... he’s a real degenerate," Rogan said.
“Well, Jamie and I went to visit—we went with Shane Gillis and a bunch of other guys to visit Dana while he was gambling.
"When we got there, he was down $600,000, and I was like, What is happening here? I was getting anxiety just sitting there watching.
"Then Taylor Lewan came over, and Dana and Taylor have this deal where Dana teaches Taylor what to gamble and how to do it.
"They’re down $120,000 in, what, five minutes? Five minutes, and they’re down 120 grand, and I’m just sitting there going—what the—look, Dana is rich as s**t.
"I know Taylor is wealthy, but there’s a level where losing $125,000 is still $125,000.”
And on May 8, a video emerged on social media which appears to show Dana tipping a car valet $900 - although the amount has not been confirmed.
Fans were quick to have their say on social media.
One said: "Could’ve fed on of the early prelims family for months with that."
Another added: "Dana would be the best customer for any service lol."
While a third joked: "Damn more than what he's paying the flyweight fighters."
As a fourth commented: "Tipping someone for moving cars instead of tipping his fighters putting their health on the line."
