UFC CEO Dana White Refutes Jake Paul's Claims of Being Banned from Events

UFC Executive Director Dana White addressed claims made by popular blogger and boxer Jake Paul, who previously stated that he had to disguise himself to attend UFC 306 because the promotion had placed him on a blacklist prohibiting him from attending events.

White stated, as reported by Essentiallysports:

Oscar De La Hoya was there. Let's put it that way. Nobody is banned from the UFC. Listen, that kid knows how to market and do his thing and all that good sh*t. Jake Paul is welcome to come to UFC.

To recall, UFC 306 was held on September 15 at the MSG Sphere in Las Vegas, honoring Mexico's Independence Day. In the main event, Merab Dvalishvili defeated Sean O'Malley by unanimous decision to become the new bantamweight champion.

The co-main event featured a trilogy fight between Valentina Shevchenko and Alexa Grasso for the women's flyweight championship. Shevchenko won by unanimous decision.
