UFC President Dana White refused to work with The Problem Child, however

A former Disney star who gained enormous traction recently stated that he would like to experience the octagon.

White stated that he has no plans to work with The Problem Child and told The Nelk Boys, "I just don’t see it happening."

"I don’t hate the child. He is f***ing annoying. He's irritating.

"He's out there trying make that money, but his shelf life seems very short."

White, 51, insists that he would not alter the product he makes by placing the younger brother Paul in the octagon.

He said, "Listen, although I don't say it, I strongly doubt it." It's not what I do.

"There is a market for it. He could face a different celebrity each week.

"And there will be a section of the population who wants to pay for it and see it. But that's not what my company does.

"I put the best against them."

White's remarks on possible collaboration with Paul echo those made by him in May, when he said to ESPN: "First off, I would never do any business with those guys. Just no.

"No, that's not what we do. I won't f *****g lend them a man for f *****g. It's impossible.

"There are plenty of f *****g goofballs that you can summon up to play these games with these guys.
