UFC President Dana White has reportedly pulled all future mixed martial arts (MMA) events from The Palms Las Vegas Resort after the struggling casino reduced his gambling credit line by 50 percent.

Don't cross the boss.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) President Dana White has pulled all future mixed martial arts (MMA) events from The Palms Casino Resort after the struggling hotel reduced his gambling credit line by 50 percent, according a report from the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Nothing business, just personal.

White, who allegedly racked up dinner bills upward of $20,000, while factoring in generous $10,000 tips, is no stranger to "Sin City" gambling stories, denying reports back in 2010 that he allegedly owed the Bellagio hotel more than $1 million following an unsuccessful run at the casino tables.

The Palms was known for hosting The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) events inside its "Pearl" theater.

Not coincidentally, TUF 16 live finale, featuring a heavyweight showdown between head coaches Roy Nelson and Shane Carwin, will broadcast live from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino on Dec. 15, 2012.

I find it hard to believe Dana can't come up with a mil at any time of the day, on any day of the week.

Doesn't surprise me given Dana's temperament.

Actually pretty badass if true.

sounds like Dana has a gambling problem...sounds like a trustworthy guy to be running an organization with fights people gamble on.

"He changed people's lives," said one of the sources ... During one two-month hot streak, White tipped dealers more than $100,000, sources confirmed. "Anytime he came in, we knew it was a big payday," a Palms employee said.

maybe what he gives in tips he should pay back the Casino with...then they would not have cut his credit.

Did any of the article say he wasn't?

Well...when your credit starts getting cut in half it usually means your not coming correct with the scrilla. Plus, we've heard stories..as the article mentions that he was in the hole with casino's before. Which he says were false..which means they were probably true considering he's lying bald guy.

Could very well be true, but it could be they can'ty afford to extend credit like they were if they aren't gaining interest.
