UFC president Dana White is getting into the slap game
The longtime president of the UFC announced a new striking competition called Power Slap during a press conference on Friday. The new venture will pit men and women competitors from around the world to showcase “power, technique and resolve.” The sport features two opponents facing each other exchanging open-handed hits to the face one after another until one wins the match.
I saw some footage of slap fighting on social media and I was instantly hooked. From the first day I saw it, I felt like this could be big. I knew what needed to be done to make it a real sport just like we did with MMA,” said White. Last month, White put out an all-call via social media telling fans: “If you have ever professionally slapped, or think you can, email a video to our casting team.
