For a long time boxing promoter, Eddie Hearn, UFC Baas, Dana White, offered some advice for his company in the world of boxing.
After having plagued it for a few years now with Zuffa Boxing, UFC boss, Dana White revealed last week that he is finally going into the world of boxing promotion.
White cooperates with Turki Alshikh to launch new boxing promotion, TKO boxing, with the plan to run the newly formed Boxing League in the same way as how the UFC is running.
However, the plans have already been criticized by boxing legends that do not think it will work, so that White's and Alalshikh are immediately put against the wall.

Eddie Hearn offers Dana White some damn advice
White has been very critical of boxing and many of the individuals around the sport in recent years, and last Saturday after UFC 313 he admitted that he has a lot of work to do to repair bridges.
Eddie Hearn is an influential figure in the sport with which he does not have to restore a relationship. The British promoter and White have always been free for each other's influence in their respective sports, which resulted in a considerable relationship between the two.
Despite the fact that, after the announcement of TKO boxing, and the claims of Alalshikh that they will 'crush' all other boxing promotions, Hearn has warned that he might have to 'sleep with one eye open'.
“Boxing is the worst company in the world,” Hearn began to explain in an interview with IFL TV.
“I hope these guys have the appetite to get up completely – – night and sleep with one eye open every day. Because you do not get control where you can go to bed at 10 o'clock and wake up at 8 o'clock (in the morning) and expect the industry and your situation to be exactly the same.
“It doesn't work that way. Every F – is on the side every day. Guess what? I am one of them, “he went on.

Despite Hearn's comments, White ultimately did exactly that to build the UFC in the powerhouse it is today.
Not only that, but the UFC boss constantly claims that his Power -Slappromotie will also surpass the UFC in popularity and success.
Because White has now added extra work to his already hectic schedule, he has noticed how he will juggle with all his various companies.
“I thought I was busy, I didn't realize what was busy until the last few weeks,” Wite admitted in the UFC 313 Post-Fight Press Conference.
“We're going to find out this year (if I can handle it all), this year the … we're going to find out this year, we'll see how long I can run so fast,” he continued.
