She is annoying as ****. 14-8 in her own sport, 7-6 in the UFC, was for some reason kept around for ages in spite of being utter **** and now is being given opportunities to have her ass kicked even more in boxing.

You sound like a resentful loser TBH. Did you even read the article?

Anyway, with the usual NSB loser dealt with (and placed on ignore) let's turn to the topic at hand: Dana White's proposed "takeover". There are several reasons why this won't be as simple as many are implying. For a start, to state the obvious, the Muhammad Ali Act is a US law so only ever applied in the US anyway. And yet we still do not see closed market boxing organisations globally.

Boxing is a much bigger sport than MMA in terms of participation. I think, as is often the case, boxing fans are focusing only on high profile US fighters and wondering what will happen if White/Turki capture all of those. Well, this already seems unlikely for reasons already stated elsewhere. Japan has had a healthy, thriving boxing market for decades. Do you think they're all suddenly going to sign over to this rather obnoxious American with delusions of grandeur?

This plan already looks very similar to what PBC had planned when they first entered the market except they did it by buying up TV dates. The trouble is they never had the fighters to fulfil the schedule and eventually lost the TV dates. The most White is likely to end up achieving is a small, US-focused entity with prospects and fringe contenders. When that fails to gain traction they will adjust to reality (like PBC did) or fail.

Oh no!!!!!

(whoever the **** this guy is)

What a weird overreaction.

Some parts of danas plan actually sound beneficial for boxers and its cool that guys careers and earning potential arent completely destroyed after 1 single loss. Their pay model may work better at the bottom for fighters but definitely not at the top so i cant see too many name brand fighters wanting to get involved unless Turki keeps cutting ridiculous checks
