Comments Thread For: Arum: White Interested in Boxing Because MMA Biz Falling Apart

[miked85]

I don't understand how Dana will make this work, he would have to outline does he want his own league with own title and belt or just be independent contracting like how boxing is now, cause of course the Ali act, plus boxing as a whole as multiple belts and sanctioning bodies, so if he does follow suit, he will be criticized like the rest for not making the right fights at the right time because of boxing politics, plus he doesn't get along with golden boy and bob arum so that's already two promoters he wouldn't work with

Maybe zuffa boxing should just invest in PBC and revamp it as a league

No way UFC/Zuffa can take over boxing or monopolise it.

The Bobfather is right. Dana has finally realised that boxing is on a different level to the UFC. If I was him I’d leave the UFC and try to become a boxing promoter exclusively. He’d make more money for sure and probably could be a boss instead of just an employee.

Golden Girls sucks besides Canelo that roster is trash.
I think Hearn has more of a chance of taking over
ODLH couldn’t even stop half his roster from getting stolen out from underneath his nose because he was too busy abusing drugs and alcohol

Just sent Bob an email. If he responds I'll post screen caps.

I think Dana is a very smart man! He's already negotiated a blockbuster event in boxing, so he knows he can't pay boxers like MMA fighters. However, if he can bring a boxing-style approach to MMA fighters (PPV earnings would be a nice start) it's possible he can re-invigorate the MMA game, and succeed in boxing. I would've thought Arum would seek to get into the MMA business before Dana would try to get into the boxing business. Such is the state of the world today! GGG vs. McGregor, live from the UK! Make it happen!
