Wed Sep 25 03:31:46 UTC 2024: ## Dana White Announces Explosive Entry into Boxing Promotion

**LAS VEGAS** – UFC President Dana White, known for his outspoken nature and successful reign over the mixed martial arts world, has announced his long-awaited foray into boxing promotion. White, who previously teased a boxing venture in 2017, has now officially confirmed his involvement in the sport.

“I’m in,” White declared during a pre-fight Q&A in Dublin, where he is closely involved with rising Irish boxer Callum Walsh. White, known for his strategic approach, believes the timing is right for his entrance into the boxing scene.

“I think obviously now is the time,” White stated. “I was kicking around. I was even talking about Anthony Joshua at one time… I’m glad I pumped the brakes and we waited. Everything is about timing.”

While White remained tight-lipped about specific details, including partners and fighters, he hinted at a plan to shake up the boxing world. “I have a plan,” he said. “I’m going to implement that plan and we’ll see how that works… I have always had an idea of how I thought it should be done.”

White is known for his bold approach, and he plans to bring his signature style to boxing. “I’m coming in guns blazing,” he said.

One of the key differences between boxing and MMA is the promotional landscape. While UFC dominates MMA, boxing features a diverse range of promoters. White, who is known for his ability to secure top talent in MMA, expressed interest in working with other promoters, including Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren, while also hinting at those he wouldn’t work with.

White plans to bring his successful UFC formula to boxing, focusing on elements like faster fight pace and minimizing interruptions. He believes there is a lack of strong television deals in boxing and that his unique approach can make a difference.

White has stated that more details about his boxing venture will be revealed in 2025, including potential athletes besides Walsh. The UFC CEO’s entry into boxing promises to be an exciting development for the sport, with fans eagerly anticipating how he will impact the industry.
