Atencio wants to fight with UFC boss White

Affliction Vice President Tom Atencio has admitted he would like to fight with UFC President Dana White sometime in the future.

Atencio will make his second appearance as a professional MMA fighter when he will fight Randy Hedderick at an Ultimate Chaos event in Mississippi on June 27th.

“I’m doing something Dana White won’t do, and that’s fight,” Atencio said at the press conference to announce his fight. “He talks like a fighter, so why doesn’t he fight? I’m stepping up to the plate. And win, lose or draw. I attempted it.

“I don’t ever think [White] would fight.”

There has been bad blood between Atencio and White since Affliction was banned from the UFC, as a result of their plans to host their own shows.
