You may have seen a few odd couples in your time, but not too many people would envision UFC President Dana White pairing up with noted psychologist and television talk show host, Dr. Phil.
It took a special cause to bring these two together. Dana White, along with UFC fighters Forrest Griffin and Kenny Florian, will be appearing on Dr. Phil’s show to address a couple of teenage boys who believe that participating in an underground fight club will enhance their chances of making their dreams of becoming UFC champions one day come true.
The following is an excerpt from Dr. Phil’s website previewing the episode:
Adela worries for her 17-year-old son, Alex's, safety after discovering that he's participating in an underground extreme sport -- teen fight clubs. Alex and his 16-year-old friend, Casanova, say that these amateur boxing matches train them to reach their goals of becoming Ultimate Fighting Champions (UFC). How do the teens respond when they come face-to-face with real UFC fighters?
The show will be airing on Friday, May 15, 2009.
