Low careers and narrow competition: Hidden risk of the boxing league Dana White in the UFC style
Published

Dana White revealed how she plans to run a up-to-date league of TKO boxing promotion, which Alalshikh started with Turki. White says he will build it from scratch using the UFC model as his success plan.
Dana intends to sign warriors to the league, and they will compete and fail, just as warriors in UFC do. He says they get rid of five different sanctioning bodies and will simply have one for their league. In boxing, it will not be impossible to control the entire sport with the league. It does not work in other companies and will not work in boxing.
Even if Dany receives all the best fighters, if they intend to compete with other great warriors, they will not last long. How can they?
Risk containing a career
Fighters excluded from this boxing league will continue to track four sanctioning bodies, fight with Dazem and will be signed with popular promoters who are now conducting sport. They will not give up the fight just because they were not chosen in the league.
Being in a league in which a handful of high -quality fighters will repeatedly face exhausting fights, will probably shorten their career. Imagine fighters such as David Benavidez and David Morrell, competing four or five times with each other in the boxing league, which follows the UFC model. How about Shakur Stevenson struggling with power, such as Gervonta four or five times. After these fights, there would not be many Shakur.
Their careers can be shortened because of the punishment they endure. Yes, this is entertainment for fans, but there will be hell for fighters who will become repetitive tough fights. Carrying bookies are much more severe than in UFC. If I were a boxer, I would not like to be in the league where I always fought the “best” every time. You can’t do it in boxing without a quick end of your career.
“People want to see great fights. Boxing has become the one in which you must be invincible so that people can care for you. It will all disappear – said Dana White The first shot of ESPNTalking about your up-to-date partnership with Turka Alalshikh in order to create a boxing league.
“There are many guys that we look at, who will be on this leaves that have many Oh. Everyone will fight with each other, and what people want to see are great fights. They want to know who is the best in the world. “
Is this “the best”?
If Dana White and Turki fighters sign this up-to-date boxing league, they will only fight with other guys in this list, as they prove that they are “The best in the world?“This is not the best. All they really do is prove that they are the best in this league with a narrow number of fighters who compete. It seems that what Turks do now works better, choosing great fighters, signing them for brief contracts and creating fascinating fights. You don’t need an isolated league to do such things.
It is like AFL, which ran separately from the NFL in 1960–1970. The only thing when the teams from two leagues played each other were Super Bowl. In the season you do not have teams from AFL teams playing NFL teams until they joined in 1970. Creating a boxing league in which fighters compete only with other warriors in this league. The idea does not work better than the current situation in sport.
“I implement elementary things, the best fight,” said White. “There are many talents that we look at now, which nobody knows about. I would like to build it from scratch, just like us from UFC. When we originally bought UFC, we had twelve contracts. You started to have everyone who matches everyone. When you get to the top five, you can’t deny who the best five guys in the world are, and then everyone is fighting to see who the world champion is. “
How can the first five in a tiny league be called the best in the world when you talk about a narrow pool of fighters? White says he started from 12 and claims that the first five was the best in the world? What is he talking about? They are only the best in this tiny company, but not in the world. Thanks to this boxing league, if they compete only with other warriors in the league, you can’t call them the best.
The way it happened in the current system were fighters from the highest ranking, mechom, golden boy and PBC often focused on establishing fighting with guys in this promotional company. It was like four or five different leagues. This up-to-date league with Dana White and Turki is simply more the same thing we have seen. The only difference is that Turki has more money to lure good fighters. If they intend to only compete with a narrow number of guys in this league, it will not be as engaging as now.

It will probably be best remembered as David UFC, who took off Goliath named Ronda Rousey. About ten years ago, Holly Holm was known as a championship boxer and kickboxer, who became a mixed fight artist who was to be torn by Rousey in the Australian octopus. It is tough to remember how the Rousey -oriented Fight Stage at the time. Floyd Mayweather – Manny Pacquiao’s fight was in the rearview mirror, and the news that a modern great time has appeared. Unbeatable, really tough and like hell, Rousey appeared on the cover of the Ring magazine, even though she wasn’t hurt.
Holm, a former professional boxer who had world titles in three separate weight divisions, never appeared on the cover of the Ring magazine. Why did she have? Women’s boxing was not popular in the Holm era. At the moment, however, mixed women’s martial arts have achieved explosive heights of popularity, thanks to Rousey – who, as it was said, intended to bury his next opponent alive before millions. Someone forgot to tell Holm that he was to become a smasy pillar to publish an unusual Rousey – because it’s not like that. Instead, Holm literally defeated Rousey senseless.
The fight, brutal and brutal, was not even close. Era Rousey collapsed immediately. However, Holm never reached Rousey’s fame. However, she continued UFC as an attractiveness at a high level and popular. And now, at the age of 43, Holm returns to boxing sport. Indeed, the breakthrough legend of combat sport (she was the world champion in kickboxing, as well as boxing and mixed martial arts) signed a contract with Jake Paul’s most valuable promotions and will fight with 10-1 Yoland Vega on June 28 in Anaheim, California.
Holm, whose boxing record is impressive 33-2-3, seems satisfied with the latest career development. “I am glad that I can work with the most valuable promotions and return to the boxing ring,” he says. “This modern chapter will be an thrilling journey and I can’t wait for the challenge. Approaching the boxing- I spent most of my MMA career on 135 pounds, and now I have the opportunity to debut in boxing with such weight. With the title of boxing in three classes with a higher weight behind the belt, I was eager to strive for the fourth title in the modern division. “
Several years have passed since the last time Holma in the ring.

The former Bantam champion UFC Holly Holm will return to the boxing ring for the first time in over 12 years.
Holm is the latest woman who joined the growing group of women’s boxers in Jak Paul’s most valuable promotions and will enter the ring against the unbeaten Yoland Vega in a 10-round featherlight fight on Undercard of 28 June fight with Julio Emperor Chavez Jr.
MVP announced an unexpected announcement during the Wednesday Paul-Chavez press conference in Anaheim.
“I am excited about cooperation with the most valuable promotions and a return to the boxing ring,” Holm said by a statement to ESPN. “This modern chapter will be an thrilling journey and I can’t wait for the challenge.”
The fight against Albuquerque, Up-to-date Mexico, Holm, 43 years ancient, began a combat sports career in the boxing ring, gathering a 33-2-3-3-3–3 and winning titles in three weight classes. In 2011, she competed both in boxing and mixing martial arts, but moved only to MMA in 2013. She signed the UFC in 2015 and was renowned for the Champion Ronda Rousey on UFC 193 November 15, 2015, in one of the biggest threads in MMA history.
Gathered a MMA record in the amount of 15-7 in 2011–2024. After her defeat from Kayla Harrison on UFC 300 in April 2024, Holm asked for release from UFC for other projects. With the boxing of women in a much different state than when she competed, where both the exhibition and money improved, Holm decided to give boxing in the last race.
“Holly Holm is the most dominant two-story athlete in history-show. Her achievements in boxing and MMA are incomparable and we are honored to welcome her in the most valuable promotions,” said Bidarian, co-founder of the most valuable promotions. “I remember that Holly shocked the world, destroying Ronda Rousey, and I have no doubt that he has the opportunity to shock the world again in her world champion. But Yolanda is a proud Mexican warrior and has her own plans, which is why she signed a contract with MVP with MVP.”
The fight against Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico, Vega (10-0, 1 KO) began a boxing pro-boxing career in 2015, but was relatively inactive. However, she fought four times in the last year, and her last trip in March.
“The fight with the champion of this posture on Saturday, June 28 brings me to my goal, which is to become the world champion. I respect and admire her work, but today she has become my next goal, and the goals are to be achieved,” said Vega.
Holm was introduced to the International Gallery of Boxing Fame in 2022, but plans to become a champion again before hanging gloves for good.
“Approaching boxing, I spent most of my MMA career at 135 pounds, and now I have the opportunity to debut in boxing with such a weight,” she said. “Thanks to boxing titles in three classes with a higher weight behind the belt, I am joyful to implement the fourth title in the modern branch.”

Berlanga vs. Sheeraz: The outdoor setting of the Louis Armstrong stadium contrasts with the eliteness of Times Square, but do they resonate?

Place of the event of Edgar Berlang vs. Hamzah Sheeraz from July 12 will be the National Tennis Center of 14,053 places at the Louis Armstrong stadium in Queens, Up-to-date York. It is a place that works for this sport, but not in boxing. Unfortunately, the stadium has many places at the ground level, makes them useless to watch box.
Fans are more concerned about the PPV price of the event than the location. If Turki wants to satisfy fans, he should value an event with a discount, because Berlanga is in the main event.
It is not clear why Turki Alalshikh chose this location for the event on July 12. His smaller place than Madison Square Garden or Barclays Center. The only obvious benefit from the Louis Armstrong stadium is that it will be an external place, such as the previous Turki event on May 2 at Times Square. The roof is extended in the event of a strange rain, sometimes in Up-to-date York. This is one of the green states.
Fights
Edgar Blangga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz – the main event
Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda-Scholar
Alberto Puello vs. Subriel Matias
David Morrell vs. Imam khataev
Ordinary fans will be cheerful that they can participate in a fight, and not exclude, as we have seen in the Times Square event. The crowd for this event was several hundred carefully selected VIPs, many of which wealthy millionaires. The fights were terrible and it was what was happening at a bad match.
Local Berlanga string?
It is doubtful whether this place will be sold, because none of the fights resonates with the crowd from Up-to-date York. Although Berlanga comes from Brooklyn, it is not a enormous enough name to bring a crowd of 14,000. Shakur comes from Newark, Up-to-date Jersey and it is not very popular in this state. Of course, Turki can afford to make the event half -filled, but it is better to be in the formulation of this card at the 5600 places at Madison Square Garden in Up-to-date York. In this way, a sale would be guaranteed.
Berlanga did not do enough in his career to count him, to bring a enormous audience. It would be a better idea for Turk to find a popular warrior who could complain about the event. Shakur would still be a good factor, and Berlanga would be perfect for the third fight in advance.
