UFC Boss Dana White has a reputation for being a successful business magnate. It almost seems like he has the Midas touch among entrepreneurs. Because whichever venture he decides to sink his teeth into eventually brings him success. The UFC supremo aims to repeat the success he found in MMA with the competition of Slap Fights. White firmly believes audiences all over the world deserve a major slap-fighting tournament. Therefore, his logical solution would be – Power Slap League.

Dana White met with serious concerns over his latest project

The Nevada business person hoped to make several of these videos in a series he calls ‘Power Slap: Road to the Title’. However, the fans’ response to this initial video is a bit gloomy.
