Three hours after the original thread was posted, a representative from the UFC, who commonly posts on the forum, stated that Dana would indeed pay the remaining funds needed for the surgery.

Dana will pay for the remaining funds needed for the surgery.
This story was again later confirmed by Ray Elbe, whom is the main MMA trainer at Tiger Muay Thai, the facility where Kru Nai is employed.

“Everybody Dies, but not everyone lives”
Just received confirmation that Dana White is the reason for the season.
Monday morning he will be having his assistant contact Grainne Farrell of Lotus Medical to make arrangements for the payment of the Liver transplant operation.
Amazing. DFW you have no idea how many people’s prayers you answered with this random act of generosity.
Thailand is a beautiful country. The national religion is Buddhist, and this story is an amazing example of how good things happen for good people. Rattanachai deserved to have someone —or in this case–an entire island step up in his time of need.
…Dana…you have a vacation home available anytime your in Phuket. I’ll even make sure Rattanachai teaches you a few Muay Thai privates 😉
