Watching the post fight press conference, Dana claimed there are plans to put on events away from apex this year and also Zuffa may put on up to 44 events this year like the ufc .
I believe the traveling, but not sure about 44 fights cards. Though possible.
Thoughts?
If the quality of cards are the same, above standard and consistent. Think it be quite appreciated.
They have a good thing going over with PI facilities for the fighters to prepare, and set up with Meta Apex though it needs to be renovated.
they could use the bigger venues like MGM Grand Garden Arena or Madison Square Garden for bigger events with built up fighters. Not sure many outside Australia knew Jai Opetaia (well plenty of hardcores and around countries in Asia or Europe which is a lot), and even Brandon Glanton in the states due to the state of Cruiserweight and his history.
Most of what he said didn't stand up to event the slightest scrutiny but he's gambling on Americans to not fact check.
Broadcasting deals in 88 countries claimed to be by the far the most. Erm, ask Jai's previous mob. They were in over 200 countries
The more fights, the merrier. I don't care who the promoters are or the politics. I want to see fights and that what we're getting. More fights. There's too many fight fans that seem to be just as invested in the "Promotor's Soap Opera" drama as they are in the actual boxing fights.
But Zuffa has openly said they will not work with other promoters so they won't provide the fights we want will they?
Dana White just wants to make a boxing equivalent of the UFC obviously.
He said some real outlandish and disrespectful sh#t about boxing though lmaoo.
Idk if he honestly respects boxing, or thinks that it sucks so much, that there is no way that he could possibly fail.
My question is if he’s going to put all of this energy into boxing, what’s going to happen with the UFC? Or is the UFC doing bad numbers and he just figures the wells gone dry and he’s looking to fu#k some other sh#t up in boxing? Idk what to make of that press conference.

Dana White is claiming they paid the IBF sanctioning fee, and a rep of the IBF flew into town paid for by Zuffa boxing and collected a $200 dollar per diem pay check, and left :lol1:
