UFC president Dana White and Nate Diaz are known to share a great relationship. With the Stockton Slugger being one of the biggest stars in the organization, it is no surprise that the 54-year-old CEO has taken a liking toward the contender. 

Prior to forming a relationship with Dana White, a young Nate Diaz ran into the president whilst he was high. In an interview with former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson, the Stockton native did a tell-all.


Nate Diaz’s brother reportedly suffered a loss in the specific fight. After being handed ‘w*** cookies’ by Nick Diaz’s girlfriend, the contenders could not handle it. The Stockton Slugger claimed he was scared after consuming too much of it.

They soon got into the elevator and encountered Dana White, who greeted them. As they were too spaced out due to the w***, Nate Diaz and Nick Diaz had forgotten the floor they were supposed to get off at.
