Dan Ige is a loved fighter in the featherweight division. He recently revealed that his mother’s car was stolen while she worked overnight. In an emotional plea, the Hawaiian fighter called upon UFC CEO Dana White for help.

Dan Ige shared a screenshot of a conversation with his mother. The featherweight fighter wanted help to recover his mother’s stolen car. As such, he asked Dana White for help. The fighter also asked for any possible information that could help him.

The 32-year-old further requested the UFC and White to send the contract as he needed money to replace the car. At this point, there is less chance of the stolen car being recovered. Ige and his mother will need to replace it with a new one. As such, Ige remains motivated to return to the octagon and compete.

Dan Ige is 18-7 in professional MMA fights. He has extremely powerful punches that can knock anyone out. Recently, Ige knocked Andre Fili out at 02:43 of the very first round. He got the performance of the night bonus for this. He now hopes to have a fight lined up to make enough money to buy a car for his mother.
