UFC kingpin Dana White has been asked make sure "no-one dies" ahead of the launch of his new slap fighting league.
White, who has made a huge success of building the UFC brand, is spearheading Power Slap League which he claims will be the premier slap fighting competition. He will work alongside UFC chief business officer Hunter Campbell, and the pair have received the green light with the competition set to be licensed by the Nevada Athletic State Commission (NAC).
Slap fighting is an extremely brutal sport with fighters unable to defend themselves from the blows, which has raised concern with medical professionals. And during a briefing with the NAC, Campbell was encouraged to take questions on behalf of White who intends to push forward with the launch.
