Influencer Bob Menery was knocked out in the first round by former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel at the event. White had bet $10,000 on Menery not to show up at all. White claims he had wholeheartedly believed that Menery wouldn’t show up until he stepped inside the ring. In case of Menery showing up, White had expected the fight to go exactly the way it did. Despite losing the wager, White gives Menery his flowers for showing up.

“Menery showed up,” White told Fred Talks Fighting. “And the fight went the way I had expected if he did show up… I did [lose $10,000]. And I didn’t believe it until he actually stepped inside the ring. So he did it. I absolutely positively did not think he would show up, and he did. Much respect to Bob for showing up.”
Poorly Prepared to Fight
White also confirmed that he is not interested in watching Menery fight ever again. The UFC head honcho claims Menery was kicked out of the Red Rock Casino on the morning of the fight in a drunk state.
“The guy got kicked out of Red Rock Casino at 4 a.m. in the morning, s—faced drunk,” White said.
White has known Menery since the latter was a member of the Nelk Boys. Menery exited the group after a falling out last year.
