“Hell No!”- As His UFC Future Is in Dana White’s Hand, Derrick Lewis Slams UFC President’s Controversial Venture

The Power Slap League has long been a target of critics who have questioned its status as a sport and raised concerns about how it affects the health and safety of players. However, the UFC head honcho Dana White remained unperturbed and is still unwavering in his support for the law. Furthermore, the previous combatants that joined the league are also being ridiculed for joining the league.

Amidst intense scrutiny, a record-breaking UFC heavyweight bigwig has also passed his statements regarding this league. As, in a recent YouTube interview,, Derrick Lewis seemed to have taken a shot at the concept of this league.

How did Derrick Lewis take a shot on Dana White’s idea?

While speaking with the renowned model and YouTube host, Nina Marie Daniele, Lewis laid it straight on the wicked concept of this league. Daniele surrounded ‘The Black Beast’ with a series of questions while conversing with him. In fact, it was she who asked Lewis about the Power Slap League.

Well, considering the doubt, Lewis took a little time to convey his thoughts. He said, “It Couldn’t be me (with chuckles). I couldn’t sit up there unless my slap was mean and look at everyone and say, Yeah, I am good. Hell no! It couldn’t be me. They are taking too long to try to get their link back, so it couldn’t be me. I wouldn’t be professional enough to do that.”

Lewis’ words, though, made it clear that he didn’t like the idea of that league. Since he said that he was not professional enough to accommodate that approach, he didn’t agree with the league’s premise. He also clarified how the players must wait a long time for their chance to slap the opponent.

Having said that, Lewis made his intentions clear about the concept. Considering Lewis’s notions, the string of concerns continues as the heavyweight star also didn’t agree with the concept. However, the UFC head honcho justified his ideas by disclosing an intriguing fact and slamming the media in the past.

Dana White’s justification and answers considering the league

The UFC President was once tired of hearing criticisms. He slammed the media in an earlier interview for their portrayals of the sports he owns. Well, White’s main concern was with the media’s selective criticism. He equated the serious injuries in boxing to those of his leagues while outlining the health and safety requirements set out by the UFC and the Power Slap League.

Followed by the statements, he called attention to the fact that the UFC has witnessed zero death in the last 22 years while boxing had 34. Also in that interview, he emphasized the medical scenario related to the Power Slap League.

But even after so many answers and justifications, questions are still being raised considering the league. What do you think about it? Do you agree with Dana White’s justification? Let us know in the comments.
