The WWE President Had To Step In And Save Dana's Boxing Dreams

[Pancake Sprawl]

UFC is a mob operation turned quasi-sports leauge, It been trying to slowly morph into a real business. but the way they scam their broadcast partners and to burn bridges by leaving them holding the bag shows that their head office still move like crooks.

you're also describing boxing

The guy thats ruining wrestling ? its all about $$$ > product

For real... just look at the R Truth drama.

 

[Senbonzakura]

Sorry man, to fast on my keyboard without double check....

all good homie!! I do that shit with my wife all the time lol she thinks im losing my mind half the time (probably right)

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

He knows the business

 

[Kevin Sorbo]

DC or Chael would be good educated guesses

God, i hope not. I like DC, but can't see him being the next Dana. Chael is just a moron and belongs nowhere near that position.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Nick Kahn will hold Turki’s hand

 

[Bouboumaster]

Dana White was always a huge moron

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

God, i hope not. I like DC, but can't see him being the next Dana. Chael is just a moron and belongs nowhere near that position.

Fatso would just fire everyone who criticizes him. Don't even want to imagine what kind of BS Pillhead Sonnen would pull...

 

[markys00]

So, what does Dana actually do again??

Yup, some random sherdogger like you should replace him. You are a retard

 

[don't ask]

If nick khan is really the hero, can he weave his magic and get Jon to fight Tom before ufc 1000 rolls around?

Not even the Wizard could give Jon courage.

 

[David Street]

Nick Kahn just doing his job both together they are doing TKO boxing. And as Eddie Hearn said H.E. Turki Alalshikh likes being in control and Dana is used to being in control so only to be expected. Dana knows how to bend he just forgot. TKO owned by Silver Lake a bunch of rich kids most got their money from the Technology sector. But known to slim down the companies to make them more cash efficient (cheap) glad TKO Boxing is being paid by HE Turki but still Cheap TKO will lead, so I looking forward to another reality show to kick this off. The 4 big fights they do every year will have real top fighters where they will need to pay up.

Dana took nothing and made it into something, good for him. He got guys with no options to fight for him for cheap, and made a billion off their backs.

But boxing is already great. Does Dana think he is going to take a boxer that makes 15 million a fight and make fun of him, lie about him, then make him sign for 5ok? One of those guys would crack him in his bald head.

 

[fedorthegoat777]

They will bring Chuck back.

If Chucky wasn't brain fried, he might not be a bad pick. Had charisma and could sell.

 

[Adamant]

Cause Dana was fucking everything up, as usual


So now, not only is Nick Kahn cleaning up Vince McMahon's mess but he's also being forced to wipe Uncle Dana's ass, wont be long til Big Nick is running the whole dang operation and Dana ends up on the trash heap, just like ole Vince Jr did

How was Dana fucking it up?

 

[Mob69]

The issue with this boxing takeover is that Turki - the power player and the money man - seems a little erratic. His alleged behaviour towards a female Netflix executive almost killed the whole project. Turki is seemingly pretty volatile. and I'm sceptical that Dana - also volcanic, but also someone who knows how to build a consistent project - would want to be deep in business with him. We'll see, I guess.

Indeed. Boxing may be dying in the US. Nobody has wanted to broadcast it, the major networks have exited the sport, there is no structure, frankly there is no reliable or consistent product even in existence (why commit to broadcasting something where the best don't fight the best every time?), and the most "exciting" bits of boxing of late have been celebrity/influencer boxing plus bare knuckle fighting.

All of this is indicative of a sport that is in very deep trouble.

Netflix are dipping their toe into the water here but that is a very long way away from actually committing to the sport multiple times per month like UFC . And what, exactly, would they be committing to? There is no product that you can bank on, just whatever you can negotiate event to even with fighters and promoters. If you can't bank on it, there is no incentive to invest, build, and market.

Boxing is a terrible investment in its current form.
