MMAJunkie<\/a>).<\/p>\n\u201cI saw Eddie Hearn saying that the belt is cringey and all this stuff. I don\u2019t think anybody looks at Eddie Hearn and says, \u2018Oh this guy\u2019s a visionary,’\u201d White said. \u201cThe guy\u2019s been in boxing forever. I look at him like most politicians. You\u2019ve done nothing in the sport except stay in the lane and play by all the rules. You ended up becoming part of the problem, is what happened.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to sit here and smash Eddie Hearn or anything, but Eddie Hearn works for his dad. He works for dad, and I don\u2019t think he\u2019s come in and ever had any type of vision, whereas we do and we\u2019re going to change the entire sport. I understand the people who are the status quo in boxing don\u2019t like it, but it doesn\u2019t mean they can\u2019t still do their thing. If your thing is as good as you think it is, and you are as good as you think you are, then do your thing. Good luck to you. I\u2019m going to do my thing and they\u2019re going to do theirs.\u201d<\/p>\n
White has insisted that he isn\u2019t looking to prevent other boxing promoters from continuing to do business. He claims that Zuffa Boxing is focused on its own development rather than trying to run others out of town.<\/p>\n
