White then blasted the fitness bike company after comedian Von revealed the company reportedly pulled ads on his podcast with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

"Peloton, what do they sell, f***ing stationary bikes?" White said in the expletive-laden tirade.

"Peloton sells stationary bikes, and they've got a problem with Robert f***ing Kennedy."

"F*** you Peloton! Who the f*** are they? Are you f***ing kidding me?" he continued.

""F***ing Peloton, calling, b****ing about Robert Kennedy."

White then said that he wanted his UFC gyms to remove all its Peloton bikes.

"We’re getting rid of the Pelotons," he said. "Pelotons are out of the gym."

A Peloton spokesperson disputed the claim and told Fox News Digital that the company asked for its ads to be pulled from the 2021 episode featuring Kennedy due to the company's 'brand safety guidelines'.
