Dana White Gives Strange Answer When Asked About Yair Rodriguez

Yair Rodriguez holds the No.4th rank in the Featherweight division and in August was on the brink of earning the No.1 contenders spot. But now it seems he is far from competing, let alone getting a title shot.

At the post-event presser of UFC Vegas 15, Dana White was asked, when Yair Rodriguez will fight again. To which White did not gave a clear answer but also did not put forth a textbook reply i.e., “I don’t know.” Rather he simply said “I don’t think he’s going to fight soon.” White gave this answer after seemingly asking an official “Haven’t we talked publicly about that?”

White’s initial reaction to the question gave a major heads up that a big reveal is coming. However, the UFC boss did not offered clarity but did said a straight up “No”, when asked if he was hurt. White concluded the session by opening further doors for speculations. He said, Yair Rodriguez’s absence is not under UFC’s purview.
