Former MMA fighter Dan Quinn reportedly threatened UFC President Dana White ahead of UFC 200, per TMZ Sports.

TMZ talked to sources who said Quinn allegedly intends to show up to Saturday's pay-per-view event to confront and shoot White. The sources cited "unresolved bad blood" between Quinn and White as the motivation behind the threats.

This may not be the first time the 49-year-old has threatened White. In May 2012, TMZ Sports posted a voicemail message, supposedly from Quinn, in which he allegedly said he'd "shoot [Dana] right in the head."

Quinn denied sending the message.

Quinn fought 13 times as a professional but never appeared in the UFC. He finished 5-7-1 in his career; his last fight was a technical-knockout defeat to Rick Vardell in November 2010.
