MMA Junkie \/ X<\/p>\n UFC CEO Dana White said Danis was banned from future UFC events for his part in the ugly altercation, but added that he declined to press charges following the dust-up.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cSo they called me from downstairs and they said, \u2018We got him down here. Do you want to press charges and have him arrested?\u2019 And I said, no, we don\u2019t want to press charges. It\u2019s the fight business, man,\u201d he said during the post-event press conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n Nevertheless, it seems Adams has no intention of letting the brawl get swept under the rug now that UFC has packed up its tent and moved on.\u00a0<\/p>\n The massive brawl broke out on the floor of the Garden as uniformed NYPD officers and event security attempted to intervene amid the chaos.\u00a0<\/p>\n A massive brawl broke out at UFC 322 on Nov. 15.
