Big Fight Weekend Boxing PodcastShow Notes
Coming up Saturday night in Las Vegas, it's the battle for the WBC world welterweight title, as Ryan Garcia defends against Conor Benn. However, before the one of the biggest bouts of 2026 gets into the ring, flamboyant UFC president and head of Zuffa Boxing, Dana White joins our insider Dan Rafael for a one on one conversation.
This conversation is actually a recorded audio interview that Dan did mid-week prior to the #GarciaBenn showdown.
In their discussion, White talks about the magnitude for Zuffa and benefactor Turki Alashikh putting this bout on in Las Vegas. Also, their belief that Benn can become a superstar starting Saturday night that will catapult their promotion and interest. This is especially if the son of hall of famer Nigel Benn can capture the coveted "WBC green belt" and become an even more marketable star in the U,.K., as well.
They also discuss White's contentious relationship with Garcia's promoter and hall of fame fighter Oscar De La Hoya, whom he regularly insults publicly and and on social media.
