Dana White speaks about the revenue made by Power Slap League
Ever since the Power Slap League was started in January this year, the competition has faced a lot of criticism. Moreover, medical professionals have expressed their concerns about the risks fighters face.
However, Dana White is focused on making it one of the biggest sports in the world and it looks like he has made quite an impact already on social media. During an appearance on the Rock Sugar Magic podcast, the UFC CEO revealed that the social media engagement of Power Slap is already beating major leagues such as MLB, NBA, WWE, and more.
"This thing is a fu*king juggernaut. Everybody thought that I was full of sh*t in the beginning if you take the NFL, NBA, MLB, the NHL, the UFC, WWE, NASCAR, F1, PGA, and a couple of others that I can't remember you combine all their social media numbers and multiple them by four, Power Slap beats them."
He also revealed the prospective earnings generated by the venture:
"In nine months I have an unbelievable amount of sponsors. I haven't said this publicly, this is a $450 million business."
