UFC President Dana White lambasted fighter Bryce Mitchell’s comments in defense of Adolf Hitler on Thursday, saying he was “beyond disgusted” by statements Mitchell made on his podcast earlier in the week.

UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell has sparked outrage after making inflammatory comments praising Adolf Hitler and denying the Holocaust with Israeli MMA star Natan Levy calling him out. The 30-year-old featherweight claimed the former Nazi leader was a 'good guy' whilst making anti-Semitic remarks during a recent appearance.

In the premiere episode of his ArkanSanity podcast co-hosted with ex-UFC fighter Roli Delgado, Mitchell spoke about his admiration for Adolf Hitler and the work the Nazi Party did in expelling and exterminating Jewish people across the European continent.
