UFC: Bryce Mitchell comments on Adolf Hitler ‘In addition to disgusting’, says UFC President Dana White

UFC President Dana White has condemned comments from Fighter Bryce Mitchell about Adolf Hitler as “beyond disgusting”.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) mixed martial artist Mitchell said the German dictator was a “good guy” and that “Holocaust is not right”.

The 30-year-old American, ranked 13 in the Featherweight Division, made a number of anti-Semitic, homophobic and transfobe comments during the first episode of his podcast.

White said, “We immediately reached Bryce when we read what he was saying, and let him know exactly how we felt it.

“But what he said was beyond disgusting, and he needs a real education about facts about Hitler and 2nd World War.”

Despite White’s condemnation, Mitchell, who last fought in December, has not yet made any additional actions for his comments.

White added: “Hitler is one of the most disgusting and evil people who have ever walked on earth, and anyone who even tries to take an opposite position is a moron.

“That’s the problem of the internet and social media. You give a platform to a lot of mute and ignorant people.”

As leader of the Nazi party, Hitler led Germany into World War II and ordered the genocide Holocaust, where six million Jews were murdered.
