After his big win, White awarded Everett a UFC contract.
“Everybody at the UFC loves you, you’re a great kid. This could not happen to a better person… It’s kind of weird since you’re already at the UFC, but welcome to the UFC.”

During the post-fight press conference, White says he expects Everett to quit his day job to pursue a UFC fighting career.
“I think this contract changes his life to the point where he doesn’t have to work at the office anymore.”
