Khabib Nurmagomedov Disses Dana White’s Idea: ‘Better To Punch’

Detractors of the Power Slap League have long questioned the league's status as a sport and voiced concerns

The Power Slap production crew has received a lot of acclaim from Dana White for its Emmy-caliber production.

White established his new business, a slap-fighting league, earlier in the year. The UFC president has stuck to his plan to make the Power Slap the next big thing in spite of the harsh criticism it has received.

Possibly the greatest fighter to ever compete in the UFC is Khabib Nurmagomedov. Recently, the unbeaten fighter appeared on the PBD podcast. Patrick Bet-David, the host, had a lot of intriguing questions for the combatant to answer. One of these concerns is the Power Slap. Khabib shared his opinions on the matter.

Dana White’s Idea Of Power Slap Being Dissed By Khabib Nurmagomedov

It appears like the list of questions surrounding Dana White’s Power Slap League will never end growing. Detractors of the Power Slap League have long questioned the league’s status as a sport and voiced concerns about how it may impact players’ health and safety. Dana White, the league’s creator and president of the UFC, is steadfast in his support despite this.

Dana White’s most recent entertainment endeavour is called Power Slap. In order to be knocked out, competitors must smack each other. “In our mentality, slap is not good; it is better to punch the face. Never slap a man,” remarked Nurmagomedov. Khabib implies that doing so is impolite. Many others have openly criticised the sport as well. White continues to advocate for the sport despite his detractors. He says this endeavour has generated enormous revenue and audience interest.

White and Nurmagomedov have always had a positive and professional connection. The champion’s opinions on ethics and respect informed his remarks about Power Slap. Other active fighters who have expressed disdain are numerous. The current bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley, revealed his distaste for the game.

Despite occasional call-ups, Nurmagomedov has retired from mixed martial arts. Even his cornermaning and coaching have halted. White still manages to make money even if the Eagle can no longer fly.
