Say you’re the head of the world’s largest MMA promotion and your son is turning 16. How do you celebrate such an occasion?

What, maybe a party in the backyard, possibly rent out the back room of the local pizza joint if you’re feeling really bold?

Or, you know, skip right past that and rent out an entire Las Vegas nightclub, complete with musical entertainment from Migos and A$AP Rocky.

That’s how White celebrated his son Aidan’s 16th birthday, according to the reviewjournal.com (via MMAFighting.com). The cost of party at alone exceeded $1 million, according to reviewjournal.com, and that doesn’t even include the “customized Land Rover Defender” that White gave his son as a gift, or the “UFC-style championship belt” that was presented to the birthday boy during the party.

For the sake of comparison, the entire disclosed payroll for the UFC’s TUF 27 Finale event a couple weeks ago was less than $900,000 once you add in the $50,000 fight-night bonuses.

So now imagine you’re a UFC fighter. Say you’re one of the fighters who’s had to beg the company for your show money after an opponent dropped out at the last minute, or maybe you’ve been on TV pleading for one of those performance bonuses after pouring your blood out onto the mat for our collective entertainment.

How are you likely to feel when you hear about the head of the company renting out Drai’s nightclub for his teenage son’s birthday party?

Maybe you’re happy for the kid. He had the good fortune to be born rich, and that has resulted in him standing there in the nightclub his dad rented, posing with a championship belt that he received for, well, living to the age of 16, so good for him.

Then again, maybe something about the Roman emperor-esque opulence of it all rubs you the wrong way. Maybe you think about that murky question of how the UFC’s profits are actually divided and you get a little annoyed. Maybe it would tough for anyone to blame you.
