UFC President Dana White started his career as a boxing trainer in Boston and he\u2019s long since had a strong affinity for the sport. With the announcement of \u2018Zuffa Boxing\u2019, many MMA fans believed White would enter the sport of boxing and put on some blockbuster fights to remember.<\/p>\n

However, not much has materialized since then, and \u2018Zuffa Boxing\u2019 seems to be a distant memory. White\u2019s notable foray into boxing was a co-promotion with Floyd Mayweather and his team when Conor McGregor took on the undefeated phenom in 2017. Barring that collaboration, Dana White seems to be content with running the operation for the UFC as the company continues to dominate the market.<\/p>\n

Dana White isn’t moving towards the sport of boxing<\/h2>\n

Dana White recently commented on the times he has thought about delving into the sport of boxing and he seemingly ends up talking himself out of it. Per White, the juice just isn\u2019t worth the squeeze, and he\u2019s far more inclined towards scaling up the UFC to great heights.<\/p>\n

He went on to call boxing a \u2018broken business\u2019 and this isn\u2019t the first time that Dana White has expressed such strong feelings about the sport of boxing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time I<\/em> try to think about doing something with boxing, I go, \u2018Why would I want to do this to myself?\u2019\u201d White said. \u201cYou know what I mean? Why would I even want to dive into this nightmare?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why I haven\u2019t really done anything,\u201d White said. \u201cIt\u2019s a broken business that is an absolute nightmare to try to fix.\u201d [h\/t bjpenn.com<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n
