UFC President Dana White lambasted fighter Bryce Mitchell’s comments in defense of Adolf Hitler on Thursday, saying he was “beyond disgusted” by statements Mitchell made on his podcast earlier in the week.

UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell has sparked outrage after making inflammatory comments praising Adolf Hitler and denying the Holocaust with Israeli MMA star Natan Levy calling him out. The 30-year-old featherweight claimed the former Nazi leader was a 'good guy' whilst making anti-Semitic remarks during a recent appearance.

"I've heard a lot of dumb and ignorant (stuff) said over the years, but this is probably the worst," Dana White said.
