If you're not familiar with UFC president Dana White, please excuse me.
For those who are familiar, finish this statement:
If Dana White controlled the sport of boxing.....
Boxing would be in a much better state.
We would have much more fights that we want to see and none of these little divas we see running around.
Took the words right out of my mouth.
Dana is horrible. The guy has absolutely no respect for fighters. He has shown that recently by ****ting on overeem, machida, and fedor in public. Three of the best fighters of their era and dana ****s on them for refusing to be his *****es.
Yep, just like Bob Arum does to fighters who leave him or not part of his table. Arum can be an MMA boss if he wanted to, he has all the tools to do it.
1. No boxer would make $2-5Mill+. Not even Floyd, Pacquiao, Tyson, De La Hoya, etc. So they will be underpaid. The richest boxers will make something like 500k-1mill plus.
2. Lol "if he ran boxing"? Boxing consists of different promoters. UFC is like a promotional company, like GBP, Top Rank, Dibella Entertainment, etc. Dana White doesn't even run MMA...MMA consists of Strike Force, UFC, and other MMA companies. How can run such a rich sport like boxing, when you don't even run a lesser, poorer sport like MMA.
So if Dana White ran boxing, boxers would be viciously underpaid and we would have probably missed out on a lot of boxers because of their disgust at the payrolls making them play a better paying sport/company like NBA, MLB, NFL, and Mexican legends would have probably been pro Soccer players.

Boxing would probably be worse, there's only 1 guy that is worse than King and Arum combined, and that is Dana White...as far as ripping fighters off amd politicking.
Boxers wouldnt be making as much money as they do.
I wouldnt be surprised if one day UFC added more weight divisions or more champions to generate more money, remember it is still in its infancy.
He makes his fighters fight the best because HE HAS ALL THE BEST FIGHTERS.
If Arum or GBP had all of the best fighters in the world in their stable they'd be doing the same exact thing.
Boxing would be more popular, but it wouldn't be nearly as rich... Also, Dana White would be over 100 years old becuz that's how long Boxing's been popular

For those who are familiar, finish this statement:
If Dana White controlled the sport of boxing.....
Boxing would defeat MMA once and for all. He makes his fighters fight the best. There is no ducking or cherry picking. We need a unified boxing league. Top rank and GBP must merge.
ohh the irony!
