Dana White will be the biggest loser of this fight.

[Scary]

This whole fight is a clear indication that he is losing ground to his own fighters. This could all spell disaster for Dana White, no matter if Conor wins or loses. In some ways Dana Whites biggest rival is Conor.

How many other fighters, have become interested in the lucrative ways of boxing? Time will tell...

This is true. Secretly Dana's gotta be rooting for Floyd to completely wreck him so that he runs back to the UFC and never even tries to do boxing ever again.

Dana doesn't have to let every one of his fighters go and have a boxing match with someone if he doesn't want them to either. MayMac is an obvious exception because of the $$$$$ to be made + the talent of the individuals involved. It may not be worth the headache with most other fighters.

just because other fighters in mma/ufc might be interested in boxing, it doesnt mean that it will do well. not everyone has the character of conor so no this wont hurt dana.

Perhaps this in particular won't stand to become a bigger problem than what it is, but looking at it from the outside. Conor is sitting at the media presser today, next to Dana white, saying that he will build his own empire, start his own thing. That in itself is trouble, simply because of the example he is setting up. White is praying that this will pay off, but it could fuel something much more important.

you guys are crackheads

dana white doesnt care about mma vs boxing (he spent the first part of his career as a boxing manager)

he cares about making money and he's making a ****load off of this and was the one who made it happen

boxing vs mma is a teenage boy thing

[Golden Boi 360]

Dana White has millions in the bank and all his brain cells intact. He doesn't care.

Conor's the only fighter who does the amount of business needed to get the UFC to bend, so I doubt that Dana White has any real worry; pull McGregor and the only fighter that the UFC has who can draw even 700k PPV buys is Jon "Bones" Jones.

Dana White's only worry, in my opinion anyway, is the Mayweather-McGregor turns into Gatti-Mayweather (in that Floyd comes out razor sharp, McGregor barely lays a hand on him, and we see an utter one-sided beating where his corner saves him in 4 rounds).

Anything outside of that, the UFC can work with and move on.

Dana White is worth half a billion dollars. Trust me, he's not losing any sleep at night.

Dana White already got paid during the sale. He's not dependent on the UFC anymore.

I think the new owners of the UFC are the biggest losers in all of this.

This fight is about Conor cashing out and Dana White having an ego trip and wanting to be part of what he thinks is "the biggest fight ever", that's why he's sitting there at every single press conference.

From a business standpoint this fight isn't good for the UFC.
