Dana White is one of the biggest promoters in the world of sports
UFC is now competing with other mainstream sports. The popularity has gone through the roof over time. The emergence of a superstar like Conor McGregor during the last decade obviously helped in that. However, White and his relentless efforts were the major factors behind the growth of the company.
Also, the promotion recently opened a new performance institute in Mexico. The visuals of that have taken the fans aback. It is as good as one can imagine it to be and the facilities are beyond imagination. One can expect further developments in the coming years.
