Dana White has long been a champion for UFC, but a recent claim he boldly made about his upstart Power Slap promotion raised some eyebrows.
UFC President Dana White seems optimistic about his upstart slap fighting promotion Power Slap. Although the promotion is still in its infancy, White believes its popularity has already surpassed virtually every other sports league or franchise. White made the claim during a recent appearance on comedian Andrew Schulz’s 'Flagrant' podcast, when he mentioned the growth of Power Slap, saying it has 'more followers than every professional sport and every professional sports team.
Real Madrid is one of the most popular sports franchises in the world, boasting 50.8 million followers on X, formerly Twitter. The team plays in what is widely considered the most popular sport on the planet — soccer. Real Madrid competes in LaLiga, the top men's professional soccer division in the Spanish league system. By comparison, Power Slap's verified X account had just over 40,000 followers as of Thursday.
White founded Power Slap in 2022 and launched the promotion the following year. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
