Dana White Confirms Plans for BMF Title Being Worked on

Dana White spoke to several reporters during the UFC 302 post-fight press conference. He discussed the BMF Championship and whether or not he was irked by UFC Featherweight Champion Ilia Topuria demanding a title for title fight if he’s expected to face Max Holloway next (via Bloody Elbow).

“We’re working on the BMF title right now,” White said. “No, it doesn’t rub me [the wrong way] at all, I love that people love that belt and want to fight for it – I love it.

White noted that the UFC is busy working on a slew of other events this year and he’s confident things will get sorted out.
