Sure. everyone knows the UFC and how successful it has become and the worldwide brand of it, selling for many billions not long ago and maybe worth around $20 billion now.
But there’s more than that behind the scenes.
The UFC have an understanding of the Athletic Commissions that most new promoters don’t and have working relationships with not just Nevada their home State where they are based, but across the country.
From a regulation standpoint this gives them an advantage to some new promoter coming into boxing — the UFC know everyone in the fight game already — Dana White of the UFC and Turki Alalshikh of TKO Boxing and the Zuffa Boxing brand, are no real new comers to boxing with TKO.
The Advantages UFC Has As New Promoters In Boxing In America That Most Don’t Know About
TV companies and their networks and their affiliated media partners across America all know the UFC and Dana White at this stage, he already has all the contacts in some of the media in the West to get more of a hype train going for their new fighters that they will sign soon.
Crucially, this will be the biggest challenge Turki Alalshikh and Dana White will have, signing world champions and so on, and signing the best contenders that fans want to watch as well as the best prospects and so on that fans wish to watch fight.
Maybe they will get a little help with that.
