Dana White recently come out to say that following Mayweather vs McGregor, he has grown from distrusting to now despising their broadcast partners in Showtime. As for why he vowed to “never work with them again,” the UFC president brought up the way Showtime handled their press release about the event’s pay-per-view buys.
Showtime announced that MayMac drew 4.3 million pay-per-view buys in North America, falling just short of Mayweather vs Pacquiao’s 4.6 million sales in the region.
White was upset about this, bringing up the global pay-per-view numbers to claim the fight was the biggest fight in combat sports history.
