UFC CEO Dana White agreed to give a fan tickets to UFC 333 at Thursday's pre-fight press conference in Abu Dhabi, after being asked to shave the fan's head in return for tickets.

Speaking from the floor microphone, the fan asked: "Will you shave my head for tickets to UFC 333?" White replied: "What are you asking me?" and the fan repeated the question.

"How about I just give you tickets and not shave your head? How about that?" White said. The fan answered: "Sure. Deal." White said: "You have a deal. Come on. Come on, kid."

UFC 333 takes place at the Etihad Arena on Saturday 24 October, with the featherweight title on the line between Alexander Volkanovski and Movsar Evloev in the main event.
