Dana White

No ****?
...

well yeah but to put it into context it goes back to the special ESPN did on Dana White, where they profiled him, and his history, getting the 2 brothers to buy the UFC and bringing it up from the ashes to become very popular and one of the "fastest growing sports" blah blah blah blah, you get the idea.

anyway one of the topics breifly covered in the Special was White's ongoing efforts to try and get MMA passed in NY city.

they showed one of the opposion to passing MMA and he basically said something along the lines of (paraphrasing) "if we sanction MMA, we have to be careful of who we're getting in bed with" and threw Dana White's name into the quote as well.

so not making it seem like Dana White is the lone reason stopping MMA in NY.

just in an argument against MMA being sanctioned, his name was used.

Found this statement:

“If the state legislature and the Governor were to accept ‘ultimate fighting,’ they have to realize this is who we’re getting in bed with -- Dana White. He mirrors very well the violence that happens with ultimate fighting.” -- New York Assemblyman Bob Reilly on E:60, revealing why he opposes the UFC’s attempts to get mixed martial arts legalized in the state

It sounds like the commissioner is accusing White of Mafia ties to me!
