“Make Boxing Interesting Again”: Dana White Reignites His Old Dream as He Promises to “Put On Fights That People Want to See”

Although Dana White declared that the Power Slap was successful, many people in the world of mixed martial arts had a different opinion. After the conclusion of season one of the slapping league, it was removed from the TBS. Without a doubt, ‘Power Slap: Road to the Title’ received a boatload of backlash from the public.

Nevertheless, White had a conversation with SBJ (Sports Business Journal) during the events of UFC 286, where he declared that he planned to expand his business and venture into the land of boxing in the next couple of years. He has been eyeing the AT&T Stadium as a probable venue for the return of ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor. However, whether the expansion would be a profitable one for the UFC president is a prediction only time can confirm. Recently, the famed MMA reporters, Aaron Bronsteter and Adam Stern, took to Twitter and relayed the message.

White revealed his plans to go into the world of boxing as an expansion for Power Slap. He said, “I don’t know if I can fix the sport, but I think I can put on fights that people want to see and I can make boxing interesting again and build a brand around it.”

Immediately after Stern’s tweet, Bronsteter replied that White was once again going into boxing and planning to launch within a period of 12-24 months. Bronsteter replied, “Per @SBJ, Dana White is once again exploring a foray into boxing promotion with a 12-24 month timetable for launching it.”
