“Ate Rock for Breakfast”: UFC Boss Dana White Shares Shocking Photo of Son Aidan with Bloodied Nose

Whether it’s riding with sharks, surfing massive waves, tearing it up in NitroCross, or carving down snowy slopes on a snowboard, young Aidan White has a taste for excitement. And that sometimes leads to getting a bloody nose. But it’s not a bad trade-off, especially since it makes him feature on his father Dana White’s proud Instagram stories.

Aidan recently found himself on the receiving end of a rough tumble while snowboarding with friends. And Mr. White took to Instagram to post a photo of the injury on his story.

Aidan shared on his own Instagram story about his father as well as a friend, Yvie. From Yvie’s post, it seems that they had gone to Brain Head, Utah for a holiday.

As they say, scars are just proof of a life lived fully, and for Aidan, this latest incident is just par for the course. He also takes after his father in matters of combat sports. Aidan is an amateur boxer who made his debut in 2017 on the St. Patrick’s Day Boxing Show in the Junior Golden Gloves Division, beating Andre LeClerc.

But it’s not just boxing. According to reports, he used to train in Muay Thai before making the shift. He was so invested in it that even Dana was a little taken aback by a sudden change of sports. But it seems he has since happily accepted it.

Aidan is the second of the three White Children. Dana White III is the oldest at 23 years old and Savannah White is the youngest at 18.

More about Dana White’s family

Dana Jr. is said to be as passionate about football as his dad is about mixed martial arts. He currently plays at the University of San Diego where he enrolled in 2020. He also tried his hands in martial arts and wrestling but never really followed through as football simply took over.

White’s youngest Savannah was literally a miracle as she was born 5 years after doctors told his wife Anne that she could not conceive anymore.

This is also one of the reasons why the UFC president is really protective of her. Of course, being a girl dad will also do that to a human being!

Talking to People’s magazine, White had spoken about how different it was being a father to two boys

“As a dad, you have to sort of oversee and protect your daughter more than you did your sons.”

Hopefully, all three kids find success in their lives just like Mr. White has!
