Comments Thread For: UFC's White Happy Canelo-GGG is Done, Despite Losing "The Date"

[aboutfkntime]

UFC President Dana White joined Colin Cowherd on The Herd ahead of UFC 211 this weekend in Dallas. White stated during the interview that he was unable to finalize a deal in time for a proposed cross-sports boxing match between retired former five division world champion Floyd Mayweather and UFC superstar Conor McGregor - and as a result he lost his target date of September 16th to Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin.

White cares about 4 things.....

1) himself
2) money
2) UFC
4) cheeseburgers

smarten up Conor, you're being played

If Canelo-Golovkin ends up at Cowboy stadium or anywhere other than Vegas (long shot), they could counter-program with Mayweather-McGregor on the same date at T-Mobile. 95% of the mainstream media would be covering the latter fight more. Canelo-Golovkin would be forced off the date lol.

Not saying this should be done, only that it's one possible scenario. Bottom line, Mayweather-McGregor IF it gets made can have any date it wants.

exactly !!

Good to know you like boxing still Dana,

[Hands of bricks]

White is happy because his fighter was gonna get his buns stuffed by Mayweather's chorizo if they fight

You really are a ****ing idiot for saying that. But your even ******er than I thought If you actually believe that garbage fight between Mayweather VS Connor would outsell Canelo VS g string. Mayweather is not ****** enough like you to think that he could go head to head on PPV vs Canelo on that same day. No way does Canelo give up that day for Mayweather. And Mayweather knows he won't outsell Canelo VS g string on the same day. So keep dreaming about Canelo moving from that date dumbass! 😆

Not gonna lie, Mayweather vs McGregor is a compete mismatch and a circus but it's a mainstream national circus.

If they were to fight on that date Canelo vs GGG would be moved no doubt about it, but I would not worry I honestly don't see Mayweather vs McGregor happening anytime soon, my guess for that fight is next year but who knows.

It was good to hear Dana say that he wouldn't be here if it wasn't for boxing in this interview.

Dana sounds like a real genuine boxing fan unlike most of the dumbasses on here

Dana started out in boxing. He was a manager if I remember correctly when he was tapped for the UFC. Good he went and said this on Colin "Boxing is Dead" Cowherd's show..

If he really had "the date" he would have reserved a venue with the Nevada Commission

There is a lot of time from here and September, UFC could potentially go head to head with this and still do well depending who is headlining i.e. If it is Conor McGregor Vs. someone good and Dana finds a way to making Brits and the Irish along with the Yanks to pay for a PPV price that would do phenomenal numbers.

Dana has obviously shown in the past that he is a boxing fan that and he admires Golovkin, It's just obvious that there is no point to compete two big events up against each other when you can have a separate date for one another.
