5. Anthony “Rumble” Johnson
In September of 2014 Anthony “Rumble” Johnson was accused of domestic assault by a woman who also filed a civil suit on him. The UFC put out a statement that Johnson was being put on an indefinite suspension pending an investigation into the charges.
The civil suit was dropped and Dana White publicly supported Johnson as being innocent of the charges. When speaking with the media in support of Johnson, White seemed taken aback when it was pointed out to him that Johnson had previously been convicted of domestic assault in 2009, and sentenced to 3 years probation and 52 weeks of domestic violence counselling.
