PFL founder Donn Davis is sure he’s caught the attention of UFC CEO Dana White with his promotion’s latest move.
Davis believes the talk of PFL acquiring Bellator, which was finally made official Monday, has been worrying White and the UFC. With the entire roster of Bellator fighters at its disposal, the deal has the potential to shake up the MMA industry in a major way.
“Everybody knows Dana well enough that he only dismisses things that worry him, or else he just doesn’t comment,” Davis said on “The MMA Hour.” “He didn’t comment on the PFL for four years because he wasn’t worried. He has commented on the PFL a lot in the last six months. He’s worried.”
