Inside Dana White’s UFC Operations
Dana White is the CEO and president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), which is a worldwide organization for mixed martial arts. He is also the owner of Power Slap, a promotion that focuses on slap fighting. It’s interesting to note that Dana White has successfully established not just one, but two organizations in the fighting world. Recently, Power Slap has been gaining increasing popularity among fans.
“I think I’m really good at building great teams that’s what I’m good at built an incredible team over a power slap the UFC is fu**ing second to none in sports this fu**ing group of people work here are the absolute best in sports i don’t give a fu*k if you’re with NFL or NBA or anything we smoke everybody,” White said.
In January 2001, Lorenzo and his elder sibling Frank purchased the UFC for $2 million, later making it part of Zuffa. White assumed the role of president within the company. Additionally, White owns Power Slap, a slap-fighting event that premiered in January 2023 and was previously aired on TBS.
White believes he excels at assembling exceptional teams, evident in both Power Slap and the UFC. He asserts that the UFC boasts an unparalleled team, surpassing even the NFL or NBA in terms of talent and capability. This confidence reflects the UFC’s standing as one of the premier organizations globally.
