It looks like Dana will have to explain himself.

Details: UFC President Dana White has found himself at the center of heated debate after a series of social media posts. First, he announced the death of UFC fighter Allan Nascimento, offering condolences to his family, friends, and teammates.

However, shortly after, White posted a new photo of himself smoking a cigar, captioned: "Great day."

This particular post triggered a storm among fans. Many felt that such a message, coming so soon after the news of a UFC fighter's passing, was extremely inappropriate and showed, at the very least, poor timing.

Although there is no evidence that the post was directly related to Nascimento's death, the timing of its appearance has led to widespread criticism of the UFC chief on social media.

As of publication, Dana White has not commented on the backlash.
