Fans laugh as Logan Paul says he texted Dana White to fight at UFC 300 and the Sphere—and got ghosted

Logan Paul may have built an empire out of making noise, but it seems like Dana White wasn’t interested in hearing him out. The YouTuber-turned-wrestler-turned-occasional-boxer claimed he texted the UFC boss about fighting at UFC 300 and at the Sphere in Las Vegas only to be hit with the coldest response of all: complete and utter silence.

Now, Logan’s no stranger to big spectacles, and if there's a camera nearby, he's usually in front of it. But even he couldn't get Dana White to bite on his latest idea. And, of course, the internet had a field day with it.

Logan Paul’s UFC 300 pitch got no response

Logan Paul shared his story during a podcast, saying he had reached out to Dana White about being part of UFC 300, one of the biggest events in the company’s history. He even floated the idea of fighting at the Sphere, Vegas’ ultra-futuristic entertainment venue that looks like it was designed by aliens with a penchant for LED lights.

Sounds cool, right? Well, Dana apparently didn’t think so. Instead of a “Let’s talk” or even a “No thanks, buddy,” Logan Paul got the digital equivalent of a tumbleweed rolling through his inbox. Ghosted. Left on read. Unseen, like a group chat message nobody wants to acknowledge.

As soon as Logan’s confession hit the internet, fans wasted no time turning it into comedic gold. The general consensus? Nobody was surprised.

One user summed it up perfectly:

“Dana White doesn’t want the UFC to be a clown show like his fights 😭✌️”

Ouch. That one had more sting than a leg kick from Sean O'Malley. Logan’s foray into combat sports has been entertaining, sure, but UFC isn’t exactly known for hosting influencer boxing matches (yet). Dana White has built his empire on elite fighters, not viral moments, though, let’s be honest, a Logan Paul UFC fight would absolutely bring in views.

Another fan saw an opportunity, saying:

“Dana’s loss, my gain - time to put my money where Logan’s mouth is! 🤑”

Not sure if this means they’re betting on Logan Paul or paying him to stop talking, but either way, it’s an investment.

Then there was the brutal reality check:

“My man’s didn’t wanna have another cancelled guy on the UFC.”

The reference to Logan’s history with controversy was not lost on anyone. While his career has been all about reinvention, some fans clearly think the UFC door should stay firmly shut.

One user kept it simple yet devastating:

“Men can also ghost.”

Equality at its finest. Logan Paul learned firsthand that ghosting isn’t just for bad Tinder dates; it also applies to billion-dollar fight promoters.

And then, of course, the blunt truth:

“Why would he bother replying. Totally undeserved.”

If there’s one thing fight fans respect, it’s hard work and dedication. And let’s just say Logan’s wrestling and boxing stints haven’t exactly convinced the MMA purists that he belongs in the octagon.

While Logan getting ghosted is undeniably hilarious, there’s no denying he would’ve brought eyeballs (and pay-per-view buys) to the UFC. The guy knows how to sell a fight. But at the same time, Dana White isn’t in the business of making circus fights, at least not yet.

So, will Logan Paul ever fight in the UFC? Probably not. But if there's one thing he excels at, it’s finding a way to make himself part of the conversation, ghosted or not.
