The Saudis should buy out all the organisations instead of putting on all these stupid events. Change the way the sport works, get rid of all the super divisions, tie each division down to only one champ... Do that and boxing would be 10 times better.

@travisdray1221 19 күн бұрын

I enjoy Dana White pressers, but the reality is that he does not handle 'real' questions very well. He has the press conferences on a power chokehold and will just shut the reporter down/make them sound stupid and not allow much response. In a format like Ariel's show..I can see it turning into a yelling match very fast, haha. I wish they could sort it though but I just can't see Dana responding to his intrusive questions very well.

@waynzignordics 18 күн бұрын

It's unclear why Dana White thinks Ariel's questions are bad for his business, but it's undeniable that's his position. Even the UFC 100 leak was overblown, IMO. DW knows he can't control Ariel, I think that's the root of it. Ariel does put people off sometimes, but I don't think it's intentional.
