“$100,000 for the Year”: Dana White Rewards Nelk Boys’ Assistant for Amazing Body Transformation
Dana White loves to challenge people. Recently, the UFC president has gotten close to the YouTube group Nelk Boys over the years. The Nelk Boys have been supporting the UFC for years. A former member of the Nelk Boys, SteveWillDoIt has bought White a $300k Maybach minivan and gifted him $500k in chips previously. This time around, it was the UFC president’s turn to give back to them as he made a bet with Gabe Poncio on Instagram.
Gabriel Poncio Souza is the assistant for the Nelk Boys. The YouTube group picked him up when they traveled to Brazil and changed his life for the good.
In a recent video, Dana White challenged the Brazilian to reach 190 lbs by May 16 for a prize:
“He’s gonna weigh 209 (lbs) in Anaheim, he’s gonna get paid $15,000. May 16th if he weighs 190 (lbs), I’m gonna give him $50,000. So it will end up being almost a $100,000 for the year.”
