Comments Thread For: Dana White Admits Zuffa Boxing Venture Has Stumbled a Bit

[Mammoth]

Boxing is spread too thin. Too many promoters, networks, ect. The sport doesn't need Dana White.

Is anyone surprised???
Dana thought he could jump out his pond and swim in the ocean. No.

Dana’s done great things with UFC, he should stay in his lane and continue with the work he’s been doing. I always thought this “Zuffa boxing” was a bit of a publicity stunt anyway.

Dana thought is was gonna be easy lol

Several former fighters have tried promoting themselves and to this day only Oscar has been successful and thats only because Oscar was huge himself during his fighting days.

He can't get away with paying boxers 50k to fight.

Yeah, this exactly. No way would it go over well if he’s paying his boxers a lot more than his UFC fighters. That would cause a lot of chaos behind the scenes since all the top UFC fighters would want equal to what the top boxers are making.

Dana needs to partner up (Former fighters ect.. to endorse) [Insert Mike Tyson HERE] use some of his already in-house strikers to start off with.
Chase down a marketable FREE name or Prospect & feed him said former/Current UFC names.

[HanzGruber]

There’s no one for him to sign unless he pay double what they’re worth

Thats the truth right there.

Boxing is so broken and so fragmented. It’s just, how do you do it? I’m still poking around figuring out how do I do this? How do I get into this and make it work. First of all if I sign a couple of guys, which I could do, I could go out and sign a couple of big stars — who they gonna fight?

In my world, I have 550 fighters under contract, so I can make any fight I want to make. You have to have a deep roster to make great fights. So I wouldn’t have a deep roster right out the gates. I’m still poking around. You’re gonna see, coming up here soon I’m going to make a real ballsy move here pretty soon. We’ll see how it pans out.

Boxing isn't broken and fragmented numbnuts, you just don't have a clue how to do it because your connections don't exist outside of MMA. Being a Boxing promoter takes talent and connections. This is why you failed the first time you two-bit flub.

Good, I don't want to see that ***
face cueball in boxing. Dana white is a piece of **** person and dosent respect his own fighters. Dana has that mobb boss attitude, where he thinks he can **** on anybody. Stay in ur own lane ***.

[Removed Now]

There's no reason for him to come into boxing. Unless he can buy a belt. Like the IBO and sign up and comers and overpay c list boxers.
