Dana White is Becoming a Boxing Promoter

I've been involved in the sport in one way or another professionally since 1997. You know, that's when I first started working for the UFC. So it's been... It's a long fucking time, man. You know, that's a long fucking time. I keep hearing rumors that Dana White is going to become a boxing promoter. I've heard for like five years. He is. He is. Yeah, they are. Yeah, they're working on some shit. I can't really tell you much, but they're definitely working on some shit. Yeah, they put together the Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight, of course, with T.M.E., with Floyd's company, T.P.E., rather. What is he called? The Money Team. TMT. TMT, right. That's what his promotion team is called, right? TMT. Mayweather promotions. Mayweather promotions crew, I guess, TMT. So he... And they did this sort of co-promotion for that big fight, and then they're working on some other thing with Floyd, where Floyd wants to get involved with them to promote something else. And it might involve MMA fighters, might involve boxers, and they've actively talked to a bunch of other boxers, and they're trying to put some stuff together. But yeah, they... Zufa boxing is a real thing. They want to... UFC wants to put together some boxing matches, and maybe even some crossover fights. I just wonder how that works, because the UFC model just won't exist in the boxing world. You can't... You won't have enough control. You don't have to. You just have to schedule a couple big fights. I mean, they're not going to do it like they do the UFC, where they do a fight. Like, the UFC literally is a fight every week right now. For the next five weeks, there's a fight every weekend. And people are hitting pay-per-view dollars. What's ESPN Plus or ESPN, and sometimes pay-per-view dollars? Some of the fights are free. I thought ESPN, because I have ESPN Plus, and I was like, oh, great, should I get to watch these UFC fights for like $5.99 a month? Nope. Yeah, no. Nope. Still, it's still... I bought it on my TV this morning. I watched it again when I was lifting this morning, and I had to pay $65. You know, but it's a weird thing, right? Like, you can't really do it where it's just $5.99 and no one has pay-per-view, because then the big fights won't be big fights. You know, they want... How does Dazon have it? Do you have to pay? No. You don't. That's their whole thing. So the Tyson Fury and Deontay, that's going to be on Dazon? No, no, no. Tyson Fury and Deontay, I think, is a simulcast between Fox, if simulcast is the right word, and ESP. In other words, they're going to have their own separate pay-per-views, and you can watch whichever production you like, which is going to be something like... Yeah, yeah. So who's the commentators? Then it becomes those commentators. It depends on where you tune in. If you go to ESP, you'll hear their people. They got their own... I think they have their own broadcast. Why don't they use Max Kellerman? I am so confused. I loved his boxing commentary, and he doesn't comment on live fights anymore. I think that's got to be his own choice. I mean, I can't imagine that they don't want his fight to be this easy. How the fuck would he not want to do that? He was so good at it. I don't know. He's got his own favorite guys. Andre Ward was also one of my favorite guys.
