The UFC President, Dana White, was scrutinized by the fans for coming up with something like the Power Slap League. It was hard for many to watch contenders slapping each other with their entire strength. The major reason for the show facing heavy criticism was because of the brutality the league displays, where the contender is restricted from defending while he is attacked by the opponent. Consequently, the show has received very little viewership ever since its premiere on TBS. The last two episodes were able to garner just 275,000 viewers. Nonetheless, the UFC president is quite determined to make his new venture a success.

As an attempt to turn eyeballs towards the promotion, the Power Slap team came up with a funny video where they merged two different worlds. The innovative video showed the favorite Marvel heroes having their slap fight. However, the Marvel fans are highly disappointed after watching the slap fight between Hulk and Spiderman!

The Future of the Power Slap League

To prevent Power Slap from tanking, Dana White has proposed a number of solutions. The president has repeatedly demonstrated that criticism has no impact on him. The UFC president is preparing to broadcast “Power Slap: Road to the Championship” on pay-per-view for the first time. On March 11, there will be a pay-per-view for the Power Slap League.
