Ronda Rousey praises Dana White but calls out Vince McMahon

During her chat with Bert Kreischer on episode 700 of The Bertcast, Ronda Rousey opened up about her experience working with both bosses. She said, “Dana White wants his company to be as successful as possible. He wants to make as much money as possible because he has a lot to prove in that space.”

Ronda explained that Dana works hard to earn respect and is always focused on success. She called him driven and business-smart, saying he built the UFC with passion and effort. Ronda also mentioned that she’s stayed on good terms with Dana even after leaving the UFC in 2016, following her loss to Amanda Nunes at UFC 207.But her thoughts about Vince McMahon were very different. Ronda said, “Vince didn’t really care about how successful the company is or how much money he was making. He cared about how much influence he had on people culturally.” She added that Vince wanted to push his own view of the world, even if it didn’t help the company.

When Kreischer asked her who she liked more, Ronda didn’t hesitate, “I mean, I’m a capitalist, so Dana.” That one sentence made it clear who she preferred.
