The UFC seems to be the penultimate destination for an MMA athlete. It is widely considered the best MMA organization worldwide. There are many MMA companies in the USA and the world but the UFC stands out from the rest given the amount of viewership and revenue it generates. UFC President Dana White went down hard on other MMA organizations in a recent interview.
It’s been more than a decade since the UFC began. UFC 1 took place in the year 1993 and the UFC 300 goes down next month.
Dana White slams down other MMA organizations
Dana White built the UFC from ground-up. He is well aware of how the biggest and best MMA organization was built ground-up. In a recent interview White touched upon the topic of how he built the UFC and why it’s the absolute best place for an MMA fighter to spend his career in. White said,
When you get to the UFC- you just saw it with MVP, you’re gonna see it with Kayla Harrison, and so many others that have come from other organizations, and they get here. They notice immediately the difference between fighting here and fighting wherever they were before. It’s not even comparable to the impact that it has on you when you leave whatever organization you are with, and you come to the UFC.
White made it clear that UFC stands apart from the crowd when it comes to pure prestige and the fan following. He gave the example of MVP who switched over to the UFC and was met with extreme fan fair in the organization. He was greeted with thousands of fans cheering for him in the arena. MVP displayed some flamboyant kickboxing skillset as he beat out Kevin Holland.
Dana White emphasized on the fact that another MMA great Kayla Harrison who was a champion at a different organization is set to be greeted by the UFC in a spectacular fashion. Harrison takes on UFC Legend Holly Holms the next time around. White is confident of the fact that she’ll be a much bigger star now that she’s in the UFC.
