Fans Revolt Against Dana White After UFC Fails to Get a Translator for Cameroonian Fighter

UFC 332’s pre-fight press conference turned chaotic when Dana White couldn’t get a translator after Cameroonian middleweight Ateba Gautier answered reporters in French and later fluently in English. Reporters asked questions in Gautier’s mother tongue, but no one was available to translate the exchange. Even after Gautier switched to English and drew White’s attention, the UFC CEO still struggled to identify the language and asked for a translator—only to be told none was present. White later complained, “We got f---ked out of that one,” as fans blasted the promotion online. Gautier fights Roman Kopylov on the main card.
