    Connor did change Dana whites life, and he did impact the industry like no other, he came in with lots of confidence and drive. you can’t take that away from him. and in the process made tons of many. He cHanged the expectation of the pay plan by raising the bar and he gave an example how to self promote.

      @@nielsgroothedde8038 when is the last time he’s won a fight? You consider him even in the top ten pound for pound let alone in his weight division? His antics are getting old and childish. He used to handle defeats with class and now he is just despicable. There used to be an excitement and mystique surrounding him and now it’s gone. Jake Paul generates a lot of talk and views (minus his last showing) while beating on nobody’s. You consider him the face of boxing game by that logic?

      @@fkillah he does act like a petulant child at times and some of his behaviour is seriously reprehensible but I love how people have written him off because he has lost one fight to Khabib, who is arguably the best lightweight ever and also to a number one contender in Poirier, twice. These fights were all after some serious time off and I can only imagine the huge amounts of distractions from his many business endeavors that he has to deal with too. He also still pulls in the most viewers and ppv buys and has brought many new fans to the sport so deserves some respect.
      I will add that I'm not a fanboy by any means and often find him infuriating but I just find it annoying when people let their emotions cloud their judgement, he is still a contender in the top 10, possibly even top 5, providing his leg recovers of course.

    Dana hasn't gotten into boxing (despite all his Zuffa Boxing bull) because he can't get away with paying his fighters 16% of the take. Boxing has the Ali Act, which he'd hate to be applied to the UFC and is why he pays Washington lobbyists to stop it from happening.
