@60minutes: While living in South Boston, Dana White says James "Whitey" Bulger’s gang tried to shake him down for money. “I literally hung up the phone, picked it back up, called Delta and got a flight out to Vegas,” recalls White, now CEO of UFC. What did he learn from that? “Nothing,” he says. But looking back, he adds, “I obviously made the right decision.” Bulger, a notorious crime boss, terrorized Boston from the 1970s into the 1990s with a campaign of murder, extortion, and drug trafficking. He spent 16 years on the lam after he was tipped to his pending arrest. In 2013, Bulger was convicted in a string of 11 killings and dozens of other gangland crimes. He was killed in federal prison in 2018. #danawhite #UFC #whiteybulger #gangster

My dad grew up in south Boston. He saw Bulger in Santa Monica while on vaca. I asked why he didn’t call it in for the reward and he said, “I wouldn’t be here now telling you this if I did.”

apparently it was Kevin Week’s that tried to get the money off Dana, those guys were stone cold killers during the 80s/90s before he fled, Bulger, Weeks, Martorano, Romano, Nee, Flemmi etc… Dana white is a lucky man basically

I’ve never understood when people are actually in situations where they owe someone money and they are told, “you’re gonna pay us back,” and then they respond by saying, “or what?” Like bruh, you’re not in any position to be challenging that. You owe money, that’s the end of the story.
