Dane White was not happy with the ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ production team.
The production team got McGregor and Chandler to take part in a UFC trivia game coupled with an ice bath challenge. They spent around 30 minutes in separate bathtubs filled with 39 degrees Fahrenheit icy water.

White claimed the fighters could have been hurt.
Speaking to the Mac Life, the UFC boss said,
“I’m gonna tell you this. It was a huge, huge f**king clusterf**k by the production team that shot this thing. Completely f**king irresponsible, completely a sh**show; and both of them could’ve been hurt during this. It was f**king ridiculous what happened during the coaches challenge.”
