Rebilas/USA TODAY SportsUFC president Dana White has apologised after a video emerged of him in a physical altercation with his wife during an argument on holiday in Mexico.
The video, released by TMZ Sports, shows the couple get into a row at a crowded nightclub on New Year's Eve, prompting other people to intervene."You've heard me say for years there is never, ever an excuse for a man to put his hands on a woman and now here I am talking about it," Dana White told TMZ Sports.
"My wife and I have been married for almost 30 years, we've known each other since we were 12 years old, and we've obviously been through some stuff together. We've got three kids, and this is one of those situations which is horrible. "I'm embarrassed, but it's also one of those situations where right now we're more concerned about our kids. Since the video popped up, we've shown our kids the video, and we're more focused on our family right now.
"People are going to have opinions on this, and most people's opinions will be right, especially in my case. You don't put your hands on a woman, ever."
