Waiting on details:

Will the league be Matchroom, Queensberry, Top Rank, Golden boy? Must they find new young fighters?

Won't build an audience with only young-guns prospects. Need big stars unless want to be a ammy league like DWCS? Then where will they go? Maybe after the wins they can be signed to Golden Boy team or Matchroom for the team.. 5 vs 5 events?

I'll believe it when I see it. We'll see!

Tito pulled out back then. Ducked Dana if I remember correctly.

Honestly pretty huge news lol. I guess Dana White did get the last laugh after all. How the hell is Dana going to run the UFC while he's off living his dream of being a boxing promoter

TBF Tito only pulled out when he found out he wont get paid, he wanted to beat Dana up but wasn't worth it for him to do for free, he professional.

Can't stand the cringey vibe of the UFC and WWE, keep that shit far away from Boxing. UFC promos and press conferences are the fakest shit, everything about their brand oozes corporate lifeless slop. Hope this dies
