UFC President Dana White was quick to shut down a reporter on Saturday after the media member suggested there were "racial undertones" during a face-to-face matchup between two middleweight fighters.

South African Dricus Du Plessis defeated Australia's Robert Whittaker, setting himself up for a likely match against Nigerian Israel Adesanya.

Du Plessis and Adesanya have been going at each other for months since Du Plessis declared he would be the first UFC fighter to bring a belt back to Africa.

The South African's logic is that he actually resides and trains on the African continent, while African-born fighters like Adesanya have since moved elsewhere.

Adesanya has not taken the comments lightly, and when he entered the cage Saturday to face off with his likely next opponent, the Nigerian-born fighter launched into an N-word-fueled tirade against the Caucasian Du Plessis, calling him his "African brother."

"I'm African, but I ain't no brother of yours, son," Du Plessis responded.

MMA reporter John Morgan asked White about the confrontation after the fight and about its "racial undertones."

"Dricus says he's the real African fighter, and so, you know, Israel dropped some N-words in there tonight," Morgan said.

"He's black," White said about Adesanya. "OK, he's black. Who gives a s***?"

Morgan asked if White was concerned about the buildup for a likely fight.

"I could care less," White replied. "This is the fight business. Israel Adesanya can say whatever he wants to say. Who gives a s***?"

"Are people b****ing about that?" he asked Morgan.

"Some people are," Morgan replied.

"Of course they are," White said. "Oh, fing a, got it, too fing bad."
