Comments Thread For: Dana White: I Hope To Have Zuffa Boxing Running By October

[kidbazooka]

That idiot makes his ufc fans buy ESPN+ for the ****tiest cards then still makes them pay Ppv prices for their bigger cards on top of the monthly fee for ESPN+

Atleast dazn gives you everything for just the monthly fee.

Lol fuucking ufc fans are grade A inbreds.

Dana clearly hasnt been keeping up with boxing. What he's trying to do has already been attempted by Haymon. Nobody wants more belt and boxers don't want a monopoly. It only worked for UFC because there was no foundation to begin with while boxing had sanctions.

UFC President Dana White has explained that his promised launch of Zuffa Boxing is only a few months away. For the last two years, White has been promising to create his own boxing brand - which is going to be the sub-company of the UFC umbrella.

Exactly! The big complaint from fighters in the UFC is how little they get paid.

How will Dana attract fighters unless he's willing to spend? Then what will his UFC fighters say if he's suddenly paying boxers the big bucks?

I can't see how Dana will disrupt the industry, though it's always good to see someone try and bring something new to the table.

That's the problem what if anything new is he bringing? So far he has not made any claims of bringing a new order or even small changes to the way boxing operates.

My only problem is if it’s exclusively on Fight Pass then it’s going to do nothing for the growth of the sport. Even Ufc isn’t garnering much buzz these days, not gaining new fans, because it’s not as accessible as it used to be

Hes exactly what the sports needs. Under his dictatorship in UFC the best are always fighting the best and at least 2 ppv’s per year have stacked cards. Meanwhile in boxing we get the best fighting uber drivers for 2-3 year stretches. For example: Until Danny Garcia got to 147 he fought a buncha cherries aka Rod Salkas.

Imagine this card..

Main event: Fury vs Wilder
Undercard: Thurman vs. Broner
Tank Davis vs Haney/Farmer

and how do you expect Dana to pull this off? Everybody knows he pays his fighters shyt and the only reason UFC got so dominating in MMA is that it was launched at the right time with the right money. Boxing is already sliced and diced between a few big boys.

While I do want to see the best fight the best, I don't see Dana pulling it off

¿Who's gonna sign with Dana White? His reputation in UFC is that he gives his fighters these crazy contracts & sonehow ends up paying them peanuts & doesn't even allow the fighters to expose or show anything that has to do with their sponcers..

not sure i agree with the fight pass concept though

If you know anything about boxing and boxers, you should know that they don't want what exists in the UFC world. A 16-7 record is good for a tough UFC fighter and horrible for a boxer. NO BOXER is going to want to start his career at 16-7 because he's always fighting "the best". While they do get to a point where the competition is stiffer each fight, they will never sign up for what I think White will be offering.
