Dana White and the UFC have led the way in terms of hosting live events amidst a pandemic. The UFC was one of, if not the first sport, to resume live events after the pandemic hit. When the United States shut down due to Coronavirus, so did the UFC. However, in Dana White, the UFC has a leader who is willing to do anything it takes to keep the fights going, which is precisely what they did. 

Dana White teases fans about a possible entry into the boxing world 

In an interview with Spinning Backfist, when asked whether he plans on entering the sport, White said, “The world of boxing has not been able to do what I have over the last 20 years. So you know, if they can’t do things when the world is normal. You can’t expect them to do things when the world is crazy”

The interviewer then asked Dana, “We’re going to have to carry on about it. You’re obviously coming into the world of boxing at some point. Is that something on your own? Are you teaming up with somebody? What are you looking to do?”

Dana replied, saying, “When it’s time I’ll let you know. I’ll let you know. I’m not ready yet. But it should be in the next couple of weeks.”

Dana has mentioned venturing into boxing multiple times in the past. This time, however, it seems more concrete. A figure like Dana White is exactly what boxing has been missing for a long time. A no-nonsense fight promoter, whose sole aim is to make the best fight the best.

However, at this point, it is unclear in what capacity Dana will enter the sport. Rest assured if he does enter the sport, boxing will flourish.
