The introduction of new types of MMA competitions is always a risk that the promotions are taking. A cross-promotional event, for example, was taken well by the fans and in fact, would love to see more of them. However, a hybrid between two sports or a new sport with new rules may not be received by the fans in a good way.
This is evident from the reception of Dana White’s Power Slap League, as it has not gone down well with fans and fighters. There are numerous critics by the fighters and ex-fighters calling it a ‘train-wreck’.
