UFC President Dana White continues to have glowing things to say about the McMahon family.

Last Thursday, White, WWE President Nick Khan and WWE Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque were ringside for the Hollywood Fight Nights event in New York City. Two days later, UFC hosted its milestone 30th-anniversary event, UFC 295, from Madison Square Garden.

After UFC 295, White fielded questions from the media at the post-show press conference. When asked about cross-promotion between the two companies, now that they're both under the TKO Group umbrella.

White says he remains open to WWE Superstars getting into the Octagon if it makes sense, as well as letting UFC fighters step into the squared circle.

"Listen, if there's something there, like Ronda going over there, Brock coming over here, whether we were with them or not, if that was the case, we would do that stuff," White said.

White said it's been "incredible" working with WWE and the McMahons, calling Vince "an amazing partner" and stating that he's always liked Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

When jokingly asked if we could see a "Battle of the Billionaires II” between him and Vince, White said that's highly unlikely, because they're great friends now and have settled their differences.

Paul Levesque also recently spoke with Sports Illustrated about WWE joining forces with the UFC TKO/Endeavor, calling it a 'next level' partnership.

He feels there's a lot of synergy between the WWE and UFC brands, and having Endeavor as their corporate partner is going to fast-track all the big initiatives that would otherwise take far longer to execute.

"The future is so bright because of the opportunities Endeavor is going to provide for us and the synergies that are there. We’re going to take this to a whole new level.”
