Why Dana White thinks Bob Menery will pull out of the Johnny Manziel fight
Dana White has put $10,000 on the line, betting that Bob Menery won’t make it to the cage for his scheduled bout against Johnny Manziel.
“So you guys have seen all the stuff that’s gone on with me and Nelk and Bob Menery over the years,” he said. “Menery is back, and he has supposedly signed a deal on Adin Ross’ fight show down in Miami to fight Johnny Manziel, okay?
“So Menery hits me up and says, ‘Who are you betting on?’ I said, ‘I’m betting on you don’t even show up. That’s my bet.’
“Menery never does anything he says he’s going to do. So Adin Ross’ fight show in Miami — Menery vs Manziel — Polymarket put a bet on it where you can bet whether he shows up or not… There’s no way 49 per cent of people believe in Bob Menery and that he’s going to show up.
“There’s no way in hell. So I’m betting $10,000 Menery does not show up. And Bob if you do and the night before it looks like you’re going to fight, I’m flying to Miami to watch this one.”
