Zuffa Boxing is heading to Paramount, but UFC President Dana White's answers for what the brand will be seem unclear. More importantly, his response to what this means for the Ali Act and the sport of boxing don't add up. This content is protected
Turki gonna fund the entire sport. Probably 12 events with Zuffa Ring events every month (seperate) Working with Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren too
I also read that from now on they will be matching prospects against each other creating more 50/50 fights and getting rid of this protecting the zero BS. I really like that idea.
Well, when their roster of fighters all have records of 6-4, 3-6, 5-7 ... and half of them have been knocked out a couple times before their tenth fight, we'll see how much everyone "likes" it. Dana White has never taken a boxer from his pro debut to a world title. Neither has Turki. Sounds like they are going to create a lot of "Journeymen" who got overmatched early on. You actually have to "learn" how to be a good pro boxer. You don't start out as one.
