Former boxing champ, Winky Wright: Dana White is the reason the UFC is where it's at right now

Former light-middleweight champion of the world, Winky Wright, talks about his belief that UFC president Dana White could help save boxing.

In the immediate aftermath of the "fight of the century" between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, there has been much speculation about the evolution of boxing and where the sport will go in the future. From a commercial standpoint, the fight was highly successful, breaking PPV records and soaring to over 4 million buys (a fact that Chael Sonnen disputes). But, one boxing great thinks the sport needs a dominant figure head and he feels UFC president Dana White is the man for the job.
